doesn’t have to be intentional. It’s anytime there is contact above the shoulder i believe … now they may not call it but it should have been an offensive foul on Zee n discounted the basket. But im thankful we scored and its a one possession game

Yes it does. She was just following through with her shot . We just had that call go against us few games ago.

Sadly, playing decent in one game is rather meaningless when you’ve lost 7 of their last 9 games and on track to lose 9 of your last 11.

That is the problem they never comeback with effort when they should win. This was one they shouldn't win. They gave up two they had no reason to lose and so almost sure to lose the next one. They have to win that Vandy game at home.

Unfortunately, this team needed an actual win and not another moral victory, as also happened against TX. It is hard to sustain this kind of emotional energy when mired in a losing streak and a negative vibe surrounds the program.

there is some really interesting data that shows people who are nominated for Hall of Fame honors but never make it are actually worse off than people who are never nominated. It's the sting of coming so close but never getting over the hump. They seem to just be mired in losing strategies and habits.

We was expected to lose this by 30 especially with the last minute stunt Barker pulled. Least this team fought hard despite the distraction.

who was expecting us to lose the game by 30? I was thinking we would fight and finally show some pride again (and we did for the most part).

So what’s your prediction for us against LSU and Vandy.

Giving up 19 ORBs in a game where an opponent rarely or barely leaves the floor for rebounds is a lack of effort and pride with a dash of ball watching

This is beyond dumb. Like what are you even talking about? Please speak common sense.
How can a player improve their transfer stock if they are playing on a team that isn’t winning?
And who says they would be transferring to a team that is any better than Tennessee right now?

Man this team is cooked. Sorry but it’s over. They don’t care, at this point the only reason any of them are trying to is improve their transfer stock. They don’t give one 💩 about winning for Tennessee.

I feel bad for Oliviyah being recruited into this mess. Player like that deserves better. Gonna be her, minus and a bunch of below average transfers.

If Barker is gone good riddance, if she's waiting for things to circle around her then good riddance.

This game was winnable had she not pulled a diva stunt.

Several more need to be shown the door.
Yank their NIL and set all their 💩 out on the sidewalk.
For the life of me, I can’t think of any reason for a player to not give their all for the school they play for. Tuition, meals, room, “tutoring”, perks.
And they give half-assed effort and then get an attitude when called on it.
They need some perspective.
Hopefully, the ones who want to be here will pull together and make a run 👍

and as Bill Parcells said you are what your record shows you are.... we are NOT AS GOOD as Oklahoma..... NOT AS GOOD as Ole Miss NOT AS GOOD as Texas A & M South Carolina etc to claim so, or to say if the refs were fair to us..... or say if we had Barker.... it would be totally different.......it is not so!!!!!!!!!!!!! we are losers and we deserve our fate. Sorry

All the best teams in the SEC have that big strong post player. Kim and her bunch evidently don't think we needed one. I guess they thought Barker was going to be it, but then they tell her she can play on the perimeter. So in a game like this we get dominated in the post and thus lose the game.

Look, I love me some Mulkey, but we missed out on her and now it’s too late. Most of the great coaches people keep naming are about to retire within 5 years. Geno, Vic, Mulkey, Wes Moore are all getting up in age.

Need to take a poll of season ticket holders and see if they would continue with a Mulkey! I am not, so no vote, but I can acknowledge she can win, but would throw up if we even tried. Don’t want her or the greasy guy of Louisville fame.
