Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Don’t stop believing. I hate to say this but we were up 20 points against OSU in 2008 during march madness. They came back and won 85-84.

I’m with you but OSU’s nor our defense back then was on the level of Houston’s either. We’ll have to make some runs and someone will need to get hot.

You mean they had one???

Pathetic offensive game plan

According to Barnes’ interview, they had one but players weren’t executing. Rebounding is also a big part of the issue. If it was more even we’re likely only down 8-10 points.

30-8 is a good season. It just sucks to see the damn gators get a final 4 in year 3 of a newer coach…. Even bammer got one last year. Auburn got one in 2019. It’s frustrating

UT might get one when Barns is gone.

 

[Vols4us]

Oh well. Did not see this coming. Really good season, sorry azz end barring a miracle.

 

[Nuctech777]

Worst half of basketball all season. This half trumps the game at Florida ....

We had 15 at the half in that game too

Id rather suck at baseball but win a basketball and football natty

Maybe Danny will find that Vitello for Basketball. Maybe.

Exact same halftime score. 34-15.

We were very close before he got here. He’s ruined our magnificent tournament history.

Given this info, I'll be pleased and impressed frankly if we don't lose by 30

 

[mr.checkerboards]

You’ll get transfers and like it!

A few is fine, but give me a couple lottery picks too

All those elite 8s were pouring in every other year and we only have 2 since he got here. . .

Don't understand why Barnes let's the guys do this. It never works. Once you get to 0/10, call a timeout, draw up some inside plays, stop letting them launch bricks from deep over and over. We literally never shoot ourselves out of it

Okpara and Cade aren’t good enough offensively to do that. ZZ, Gainey, and Chaz all drove the ball with mostly poor results.

 

[GVol1966]

Lol

No

RECRUIT length and guys who can shoot

He has . Still hasn’t gotten over the top.

Steve Lappas is so dang annoying

I just want to win a championship. We endure so much being fans of phenomenal program. It’s great to be a VOL but I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t heartbreaking too..

Put Igor on a milk carton.

Agreed. Need to get to the foul line.
