We are playing Freshmen and Soph. a lot. We've played as many as 6 freshman this year that I've counted.

8 freshemen, 5 sophomores, only 3 upperclassmen. And these aren't exactly one and done guys, either. And they still have very little length. They're going to take some serious lumps this year. Hopefully Barnes can have them in shape by next season.

Barnes seems like a good guy, but if we were going to get anyone merely o.k., we should have gone with Rick Byrd. He'd have been hungry and had upside.

I know nothing about them. Leading scorer is "S. Phillips". Maybe I ought to watch a game.

With a team this young, not familiar with each other, and no post players, they are going to get beat until younger players get better. UT does not need the one-and-done players to succeed and it will be hard to draw them to Knoxville. It is difficult to beat any team that is playing with experienced players that are tall. Blame the lack of talent on Martin and the Cheater, not Barnes.

Well for all the gloom and doom, they lost to a ranked team. They will do better as the season progresses.

How many "good" teams are expected to be in the SEC this season? If it's normal, not that many. So they could still win a few games.
