Title: We shoot well for the first time in forever... Post by: Black Diamond Vol on January 15, 2022, 09:12:01 EST ...and it's wasted because we can't do literally anything else right. :frown:
I don't think even our A game would've been enough to beat UK today, the way they were shooting. But this garbage performance had better serve as wakeup call. It's time to change our rotations. We've got highly rated guys sitting on the bench who rarely if ever see the floor. Time to throw them into the fire. There's not much to lose, at this point. Title: Re: We shoot well for the first time in forever... Post by: volsboy on January 15, 2022, 10:03:20 EST If they play like this, it will be a quick exit from the tournament. They have too much talent to play this bad. Hopefully they turn it around. I'm pointing at you Barnes. Get this teams crap together before you play Auburn on Feb 26. After Vandy next the Vols play LSU and UF at home, then at Texas. Need to win all four of those games.
Title: Re: We shoot well for the first time in forever... Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on January 15, 2022, 10:21:29 EST I think that UK is a really good basketball team. They are especially difficult for this UT team because they are long, athletic, quick, and they can shoot the basketball for a change. They are also playing unselfish basketball.
I would like to say that I was surprised by the outcome today, but really I wasn't. Unless things change, I think that this team will struggle to be above .500 in SEC play.

This dude needs to play and maybe even start. Fulky should come off the bench Barns said he would after the game.He has been averaging around 2 min per game and played 10 min yesterday It appears that he has had to adjust to the college game but given the lack of effective play by Fulky he may get a chance to prove himself going forward Title: Re: We shoot well for the first time in forever... Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on January 17, 2022, 12:49:51 EST The rumors on BHH are that he wasn't performing well in practice and wasn't giving the effort that CRB thought he needed. The kid is definitely talented and athletic.

Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on January 17, 2022, 06:03:22 EST You'll get no argument from me. He makes some mistakes, but he's young. Supposedly one the past week he has started performing better in practice and had even been spending time working after practice. I hope that its true.
