Let's not forget John was one hell of a basketball announcer. Bottom! sticks in my mind just like Give him six! I was a fresh in 67 as he really became the voice of the Vols and was in Phoenix for the champ game.

DALE ELLIS huge miss on leaving him out.

What an incredible talent. He was what was known as a free spirit back in the day. I believe he befriended Duane Thomas in his feud with the Cowboys ended up with Pats. Met him at UT when he was back from his Cowboy time. Worked out with insane weights for a guy his size. Played pick up ball...

Duke paid him or the NIL paid him?

I would die for a one hit wonder yr here in k town.

Game was at Northwestern, I was a senior in high school at a school in the middle of a cornfield south of Chicago. First Vol basketball game I attended, I headed to Ktown following year.. Hell of a game , very disappointing. The end story, Dayton had the win expunged because of NCAA violations...

Our bigs looked like a reincarnation of Bobby Croft not Tom Boerwinkle!

We scored 15 pt in the entire first half. 15 pt. Never has a 1 or 2 seed scored that few points in a half. Ever. The more I think about it , the angrier I get. In- game interview, Coach said we need to make more shots. That is the biggest understatement he has ever made. I'm watching Sparty...

Why not? They left us open in first half...oh yeah , they hit theirs.

Unless he goes crazy in the second half, this game will cost him a lot of money in the NBA draft.

You actually tried to slip in blame on the officials? The blame rests with the guys wearing Orange. Not one phase of the game has worked. Not one.

Good call

Addendum...Wrigley was freezing in the winter!!

19.2 % for 3 pt shots. TO's at most critical moments. Hope the coaches and team rewatch the game until every possession is seared into their minds. The difference between a W and a L is just so small. Great season....next year will be even better.

One hell of an athlete. As a youngster, Dad( Class of 1949) and I (Class of 71)would go to watch Packers play Doug's Bears at Wrigley. Packers had an all Pro O line and Doug was all over Bart. Sometimes literally triple teamed...was truly a force. Great memories.
