    UK had 6 men on court last nite against A&M

    And yet we are the only team this season in the nation with that ignominious statistic. Consider the high degree of statistical improbability of that happening 5 times in one season in very important games. There is definitely a problem with this team's late-game execution in important games.

    UK had 6 men on court last nite against A&M

    They're going to lose again on Saturday. We aren't that good, either; we are very inconsistent. Any team that can blow 5 over-10-point leads in a season has problems.

    The Official Lady Vols Softball Shriners Invitational Thread (2/13 Noon ET Nebraska, 5PM ET JMU) (2/14 Noon ET FAU, 4PM ET UCLA) (2/15 8PM ET FSU)

    The big difference between this team and the Monica-Abbott teams is the offense and the apparent pitching depth. This team has some bangers on it that I am not sure I have seen since the Weekly's came to TN.

    Josh Elander on Antigua: “Playing Out of His Mind”

    I fail to see how Antigua hitting well is a "problem". If his offense is good enough to make the starting position at shortstop then that is good for the team.

    Gotta love Coach Barnes

    I don't know what he says to the players. I don't go to practices and no one is reporting/saying that he says this to his players.

    Gotta love Coach Barnes

    When I heard the remark I thought: maybe he should tell the players that. Sometimes the stupid stuff they do looks like they are trying to shave points or throw games. Gillespie has at least a couple of head-scratching "brain farts" every game. Last night it was those two fouls on 3-point shots.

    For the long time basketball fans. Your thoughts on Don DeVoe.

    Mostly good. He (and Mears) had a great record against Kentucky. He was not a very good recruiter, but made the most of the talent that he was able to bring in. He took a noticeable down turn after the advent of the shot clock.

    The worm has turned

    I would like for someone to explain to me how banging into the back of someone's head with a shoulder and driving them into the stanchion under the basket is a "basketball move".
