    2024 Recruiting Thread

    Who have they beat in those 6 games in the SEC? They have trailed by double digits in all of those games and miraculously found a way to win. Will they do that against the top teams in the league? We don’t know…but I wouldn’t bet on it. You can say what you want about the record in the SEC, but...

    2024 Recruiting Thread

    The lifeblood of this program needs to be high-school recruiting. The fact that we have to continually go into the portal to fill in holes is really flirting with danger. In my opinion, the portal players they picked up in this past cycle have done barely anything to help. Wells got hurt, but...

    Kellie Harper discussion/debate thread [merged]

    If Harper is going to get to a Final Four anytime soon she better get more serious about recruiting. First thing I would do is get someone who can recruit as the recruiting coordinator.

    That team had a freshman by the name of Chamique Holdsclaw on it and she started coming into her own towards the end of the season.

    We don’t have to have a former player to be successful! I actually think some new blood and thinking would be great for the program! I do think Kara Lawson would have been a great hire. It’s too bad we didn’t make that hire when we could have.

    Kellie Harper discussion/debate thread [merged]

    I’m just waiting on someone to say that maybe building your team thru the portal isn’t as good of an idea as they thought. I’m sure that roles change and some for the better, but others lose their spot and it changes moral. But, many other teams seem to be benefiting from it, so maybe it’s...

    ‘23 NC EDGE Rico Walker (Maryland commit)

    I take it Florida has unleashed the NIL money??? Why are all of these kids committing now? Seems like something changed. Must be nice to be having a great recruiting cycle while not having the best of seasons. Not sure why we can’t make the same happen.

    Game Thread: Lady Vols 75 - Ohio State 87

    This is a pattern of issues that doesn’t get better or change. Ever since Kellie has been here we have had an issue with turnovers and nothing has been done about it to get better. She isn’t getting recruits from HS, so there is no way to really build from the inside out. Most of you say we are...

    So embarrassing!!!

    Game Thread: Lady Vols 75 - Ohio State 87

    Just absolutely embarrassing! 30 turnovers?!?!? Kellie let them go on a huge run and never called timeout until it was almost a double digit lead. She is playing too many players and, again, no movement on offense. We spread the floor and stand there. We are so easy to defend!!!

    2023 Recruiting

    So if we don’t get to the final four this year, which would be a travesty with this team, what happens with recruiting then? Would that not make things even harder? There are numerous and I mean numerous teams out there who are not making it to the final four and still getting great players...

    2023 Recruiting

    I could say that too many of you all are just not allowing yourselves to question what is wrong or even acknowledge that no great teams are going two recruiting cycles and only getting one player. You know why? Because great schools don’t have to and would never want to. This upcoming season...

    2023 Recruiting

    It starts and ends with the head coach. At the end of the day, the head coach is who the players are coming here to play for. I think on the court she is one of the top coaches, but coaching is not all about that. We have to be able to recruit better. The fact that she has never been known as a...

    2023 Recruiting

    Again, at what point do people not see that the great schools are not depending solely on the portal to replenish their teams? Yes, you can supplement good to great players with experience, but you need a foundation and getting one high school recruit in two recruiting cycles is bad. There is no...
