Why, yeeeeees. Yes you can! For some reason basketball has been floating around in my mind for the past few weeks.

Could we get someone in there to film any scrimmage type activities? if it was Big blue it would be televised.

What happens at this event?

It's a combination fan meet and greet, autograph session, and skill contests from both Vol and Lady Vol basketball teams. I think Coach Barnes and Coach Harper will also be there to speak with the fans. Free admission to the public. Here's a snippet from the dunk contest from two years ago.

I hope so, but I don't think the team scrimmages. They could change things up this year though.

Will they put up 8' goals for a Lady Vol dunk contest?

More information about the Rocky Top Tipoff. Of note, it looks like both teams will have controlled scrimmages after all.

Lawd this can’t get here fast enough! This squad may be lacking in numbers and maybe even a little in the talent department, but I guarantee you they’ll come out every game, with fire in their eyes and fight until the last second ticks off the clock!
GBO!!

I though for a minute we were in the Tennessee vs Georgia game thread...

GBO!!

Don’t know about 8’ goals, but I hear Hollywood Rick is rolling out three 5*’s

GBO!!

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Tomorrow.

No. I'm saving myself for Eastern New Mexico State in 26 days.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

There’s a steady stream of fans already rolling in!

Bud, I was only there to coordinate a beer delivery for tomorrow. I was behind the scenes for a little bit but got out of there. I did see who I think was J.P. Prince and Brandon Crump at the other end of the court?
GBO!!

What happens at this event?

@Dallasbowlin shows up and challenges the team to a dunk contest. And then just goes off on them.

You spoiled the surprise!

 

[cobbwebb0710]

At 5:00, I’d say at least 5,000, maybe?? I was in the tunnel, looking out to the court, so I’m just guessing. Maybe someone out in the arena can give a better estimate. I’m curious as well, because I hope it was a really good turnout.
GBO!!

Is this streaming anywhere?
