Different direction from PG...

Ben Hur brought Jonesville and PG together. Nobody thought that was possible...

 

[T2P_Priceless]

I have no idea how any duo could score lower than Shack and Igor.

Is there any way to look up the +/- on these players? I imagine Igor was maybe negative or not much. Despite not much scoring from Shack he might be at positive holding top scoring Guards to significantly less. Not saying that’s true but would be interested to know

Is Massamba still in play for the Vols?

He’s a Vol

100% confidence on Massamba? What about for Abram? When could we expect these things to be officially official?

Abram career college stats per Sports Reference. The Georgia Tech season was anomalous for whatever reason + didn't see the floor a lot there. If you look at his college career as a trajectory however, he clearly performed best last season at La Tech. Shot 47% from 2, 37% from 3, started all 32 games, averaged 32 min and put up 12.3, 4.4, 1.7, 1.5 & 0.1 (pts, reb, assts, stls, blks). Granted that was against AAC competition which was nothing to scream about this past season apart from Memphis who was solid, but I think you have to see some potential in this get if it does indeed happen. It's the eternal question of how his play translates to the SEC, but consider that he started 22 games as a freshman at Ole Miss, putting up 8 pts, 2 reb and 2 assists in 21 min. Potentially Gainey'ish no? A summer at Camp Barnes and we might just have something.

Loved Damon Stoudamire as a player, but think that was his first yr HC, so I’m throwing that one out. There’s definitely hidden potential there in the right system. Imo
I’ve said it once before and I’ll try to only repeat once more, cause I don’t want to be that guy.. a Chaz or DK would be awesome to have but with the pieces so far I don’t think that point production is necessary. A better scoring but comparable defensive Shack sounds like a dream scenario for this squad. Especially splitting time with a scary athletic Frenchman. GB

We still in it for Adams , or do we move on from him …. Hope gainey can get extra year will help

Are you saying this because your insider friend(s) are confident with where we’re at in the process with him or because he has committed? Because I don’t see anything in the media about a new commitment.

 

[nateernst]

Are we completely out on Chaikin? I can't get over my visions of him hitting 50-75 threes for us next year

 

[DeepPurpleFloyd]

I do think Abram and Carey will both combine for more points than we got from Shack and Igor, so I do count that as a win.

Guess I need to start seeing the bright side of things.

Just smoke some Hawaiian.

Is Massamba still in play for the Vols?

Yes

 

[OrangeInKy]

Only thing I loved more was how many people cooked Wes Rucker in his mentions the other day for calling a Tennessee baseball player a little guy mol

That guy, I don't miss Twitter for many reasons, and he is one of them.

Or that purple!

Just finalizing details right now. It’s as much a done deal as one could be. Just crossing and dotting those T’s and I’s.

 

[EJVOL4LIFE]

Yeah. Igor was limited in alot things …. He got schooled against Houston

I agree that Igor was a disappointment for us if you're focusing just on shooting, but I do have to say he was our best rebounder far and he crashed the offensive glass better than most.

Thanks! Very exciting, and after gaming his stat line out I actually feel a lot better about the trajectory Abram is on as well, I think there may be a lot of potential there if it happens.

By the way, no offense, but your “glorious” reference as a hint about Abram was clever but maybe a bit obscure given the info we had at that point. With future guesses should we phrase our answer in the form of a question?

 

[SlyStone]

He (Igor)wanted no part of Houston's physicality. If he had matched what Felix had put out maybe the Vols might have made it close.

Got my medical card a few weeks ago and I have been enjoying the new customer discounts at dispensaries. I don't really use my flower allotment but the vapes and concentrates are great!

My bad haha I’ll be less obscure if I receive any future news.

Tried any dispensary THC beverages? Curious how, um, effective they are.

 

[volpack2]

A 4.2 40 time and 9.5 100 meters

Those are really good numbers for a Volnation poster. Just think where he is going to be after a year or two in our strength and conditioning program.

 

[Jr_Vol#]

I don’t have discord I just heard from a friend trilly said that about Adams. Again…I am NOT an insider….i just know a few people in the know and I joined VN to have some fun and connect with some fellow Vols. It has been a great ride on VQ, but it got too annoying after the Nico garbage, so I came over here and decided to get involved in basketball instead of the ridiculousness surrounding football currently. I will start getting into some football forums maybe this summer.

Welcome to Volnation ToddKirk87!

If we get this French guy and he ends up being very good, I'm gonna shout "Baguettes for Everyone!" whenever he knocks down a 3 Hope I spelled Baguette correctly, damn French words
