Tennessee Volunteers "Fan Favorite" All-Decade Team

[TeazyT]

I know everyone is hot on the recruiting trail with CDT right now but I just wanted to see who who everyone's favorite players have been from the past 10 years in Knoxville.

Here's mine...
PG- CJ Watson: He was electric and I loved watching him play in the orange jersey. Also probably the best PG we've had in the past decade.
SG- Chris Lofton: The guy is the definition of a VFL, playing through illness like he did and giving his all every game for VolNation, absolutely loved him.
SG- Jajuan Smith: One word. CLUTCH. The dude was an animal, and was money in crunch time. Could have used him in more than a few games last year.
C- Tobias Harris: I know a lot of people look at him as an underachiever and ridicule him for being a one and done-er but I loved watching Tobias play and he really carried us through a lot of his season here
F- Wayne Chism: Honestly my favorite Vol of all time, this guy left it all on the floor every single night and would never let us as fans down. The signature headband that was always just about to fall off is a sight I miss dearly anytime I turn on a Big Orange game.

Bench- Swiperboy: Shouldnt even be a debate here

If Stokes had played as hard as Chism, then we would had something special.

Slay

Is he still within the decade? Thought he graduated in 2002. One of my favorites, but often overlooked as one of the best.

Swiperboy shouldn't even be in your top 30. I'd take Steven Pearl or Skylar McBrick over Woolridge

Chism - PF
Stokes - C/PF

Honorable mentions: JaJuan Smith, Hopson, Bradshaw, Harris (better pro player but not better college player than Chism IMO), Prince, Maymon (pre-injury), McRae.

If Stokes had played as hard as Chism, then we would had something special.

Sorry but I find your opinion that Stokes didn't play hard to be ridiculous. You don't offensive rebound like he did and not play hard.

 

[seaofORANGE22]

Watson
Lofton
Richardson (Tournament Version)
Chism
Stokes

^^^
That team would dominate

2nd Team

J. Smith
McRae
Prince
Tobias
Maymon

Fan favorite?

Lofton, Stokes, Bradshaw, Harris, and Watson are probably the fan favorites.

I loved Chism but he was criticized heavily for shooting 3s by many. J. Smith was criticized for trying circus dunks sometimes. Hopson was trashed even though he averaged 17 ppg and was 1st team All-SEC.

We've had some very good players that get ripped by the fans. But every school has that.
