Coach Pearl......................WHY IN THE H3LL IS YOUR SON IN THIS GAME???????

Playing for the second half. He can foul all he wants, and it lets Wayne, Tyler, and our other bigs rest up for the big push. We are down 7, and had some really interesting line-ups in the game. We are trying to use our depth to help us run Louisville out at the end, and so that our best players can be prepared to take it to them after halftime.

If they played one on one nobody would ever score

:lolabove:

 

[Sudden Impact]

UL should have already put this game way. It may cost them.

we are going to win this game guys.

 

[Vols4ever]

if howell could be a lil offensive threat we could use him... i think he can handle the ball a better... but with his recent shooting slump... :cray:

 

[allvol123]

100% sure we don't blow a 19 point lead.

 

[TreeGreen]

It will help immensely if Lofton can catch fire a little bit behind the arc too.

 

[Sudden Impact]

all those cheap fouls we now get.

 

[myrobbins7]

That first half sucked...Come out strong in the 2nd and the vols should win. Lots of TO for the Cards in the first half, keep it up.

To Everyone Who Is Talking Crap!!!
You Can Shut The !!!! Up!
We Played Hard!!
You Obviously Know Nothing About Basketball!!

We Played Good! Were Not In Foul Trouble! And Were Only Down 7!
Against That Defense! Noone On The Country Could Have Played Better...

If Your That Dissappointed! Throw Your Orange Away!
Your Worse Than Alabama Fans! Jesus Christ!

Never thought I'd see Childress and Pearl get so many minutes.

 

[Buckethead556]

I guess none of yall ever played organized basketball in yalls life because Pearl has been on the floor for maybe 2 minutes and has 2 rebounds (1 offensive). And he played great D on that last series, that guys shot just dropped.

 

[johnnybravo]

I know Pearl's in there to avoid some fouls for other players, but that was pitiful. Never had a chance.

They scored anyway. I'd take the Chill before Pearl.

 

[King Webbsticles]

Shouldn't there have been a 5 second call there out top? OH well, lucky roll. Things could be worse

yeah i saw that... the ref was counting and got to four but while nobody moved he signaled that there was too much space, and then started over again..

Thoughts at the Half
Offense
-Jajuan is hitting from deep.
-Tyler is looking good.
-We need more from Chris and Wayne

Defense
-Keep the pressure
-Turnovers :thumbsup:

Down 7, the first 3 minutes of the half are HUGE.
Start to convert on TOs and cut down on our own TOs and we can make a run at this.
GO VOLS!

 

[hatingbamaisawayoflife]

yeah
except maybe cbp doesnt realize louisville is just as deep if not deeper.

 

[VolsByNature]

Thank you Lofton, your lack of play has again left us behind, :good!:

Yes.

 

[UTvol1fn]

100% sure we don't blow a 19 point lead.

you mean at the half...it is still possible

 

[kkep48]

It will help immensely if Lofton can catch fire a little bit behind the arc too.

it would help if he actually showed up.

 

[Cartervol]

Pitino is satan. Louisville is getting every loose ball and owning us on the glass.

 

[VolunteerOrange]

What is that supposed to mean?

High aspirations for a high level hero.
Steven Pearl wouldn't see minutes in a tournament game for UTC.

 

[kptvol]

100% sure we don't blow a 19 point lead.

Have you forgotten how last season ended?

 

[bigdaddy]

Too many turnovers in key situations

 

[volsforever27]

Brilliant observation Seth.
