Jordan and McCaskill are more productive because they're much more skilled soccer players and they play in systems that require the team to possess the ball. The movement and passing of SC and Florida is so much better than the Vols. The Vols aren't in the same universe. And as I said Jordan...

Saw the second half. Awful, horrible soccer. First goal came off a give away by holding mid and after SC connects a couple passes our thug forward runs over the SC forward rather than defending and the SC player gets up and connects on a header to their star player. This starts with zero...

Here is the one takeaway I would love to see pounded in the Vols staff and players. The first goal came from a nice sequence where we caused a turnover in the midfield, one mid played a ball to another mid, the second mid plays a simple ball wide, ultimately Wilkinson makes a 1 v 1 move to send...

Our goalie was good last night and she kept us from losing. MSU outplayed us in the first half but couldn't finish. The personnel changes to the back line resulted in us giving up fewer goals, our ability to possess the ball is as bad as it gets. Other than chasing the ball and trying to...

Got the win and in the big picture that is all that matters. MSU had more scoring chances than the Vols but the Vols finished their chances. Not going to beat a dead horse on quality and style of play. They play the way they play. Sure hope the Vols can get some bodies back for...

I barely have the time to watch the Vols games let alone anyone else. You know what this group could win is the UT kickball intramural championship. I wonder what coaching instructions can come from reviewing the game video. I wouldn't even know where to begin because the quality of the...

Thankfully I only saw the first half. Watching beyond that may have resulted in permanent eye injury, certainly my head hurt from the first half. While I have given the coaching staff credit for figuring out how this group can get some results, make no mistake that this is an incredibly poorly...

I agree that right now the Vols wouldn't make the NCAA tournament, and my view is the Vols likely need 3 more regular season wins and possibly 1 SEC tourney win to lock it up. One game at a time. This week is KY. Must win.

I agree with much of this, but could not disagree more than the comment about Kupritz. I rarely use players names because I don't like to speak negatively by name about college athetes. I think Kupritz is by far the most selfish Vol, struggles to pass the ball, and regularly makes poor...

Nice win for the Vols against a depleted TAMU. Given the injuries this is the weakest Aggie team in years, but all the credit to the Vols. TAMU really only had one shot that tested the Vol keeper. The first goal was achieved after a pass from our right forward to attacking mid who passed...

Great result last night. I thought LSU played better but the Vols were effective in their counterattack and put the ball in the net. Our backs were frequently exposed last night, primarily from being out of formation. Multiple times outside backs failed to tuck in and cut off seams in the...

Didn't see the game today so don't have any comments other than surprised Indiana State took the VOLS to OT. I thought ISU may have been the worst team on schedule. Must win at LSU. GO VOLS!!!!

The reason I said Vandy wasn't good is good teams that possess the ball don't get taken out of their game. Instead they impose their will on their opponent. Vandy was playing as many bad balls as the Vols. When I was watching game last night it was interesting hearing the criticisms Torrey...

I thought both teams were awful in terms of quality soccer. It was like watching a tennis match the way the ball was sent back and forth. I'm sure this isn't true but it sure feels like both teams passed more balls in the air than on the ground. I have pounded that being good starts by...

When it comes to passing soccer balls I think most of the Vols are worse than Tebow passing footballs. Poor technique, poor pace, rarely to feet. But as I have said, I give credit to the staff for coming up with a strategy that gives them the best chance to get results and at the end of the...
