Title: Maymon's line: 32 points, 20 rebounds Post by: BigOrange Maniac on November 22, 2011, 10:38:13 EST :wow:
I suspect that the SEC slate will still be a rough one, and UT may be exposed by a number of these conference teams with no true big man, but this team is far, far ahead of where I thought they would be at this point.

Hall showed some flashes his freshman year. I knew Maymon was a big time recruit before he transferred. Golden, and McCrae were nice recruits. Richardson is proving to be a nice freshman as is Yemi. Miller is showing some potential, too. That said, would have loved to have gotten one of these top 10 teams! I know everybody is disappointed with the two early signees. I don't know who we are in on besides Stokes from Memphis that would please everybody with the "blockbuster" recruit image. Obviously, coach is a coach. :biggrin: We'll see how it turns out. I'm going to predict 22-8. Something along those lines, or could be worse with our schedule. Surely we can beat pitt & uconn in Knoxville, and split with Vandy/Florida after this performance. Go Vols! :powert:

The difference between 6'9" & 6'11" is negligible. Maymon is a BIG MAN. With muscle, and a wide body he will play much bigger than 6'7".
