Title: Same song, next verse

Basketball Vols blow another double digit second half lead today, this time at TCU - the same TCU that lost at home to South Dakota State by double digits. 

It's gotten past the point of being pathetic.

Getting to be a pattern.

The collapse against Alabama hurt. Badly. This one? No excuse. Zero.

The BB Vols are too short in the post game. When the outside shooting cools off or when we need a basket down low, we're sunk. If we even had some tall clod who could play down low it would help. But for now, it's make the outside shots or we're doomed. And the other teams know that. So when it comes to crunch time we can't count on a higher percentage shot from inside. That's who we are for this year.

I've read criticism of Barnes about various things. Considering the position we were in, we did pretty well getting him as a coach. He's been successful with the tiglets and at Texas. No, he didn't win a NC, but really, wouldn't we be happy just to get back to the NCAA tournament at this point?
