Title: It's official- we're a basketball school... Post by: Black Diamond Vol on November 06, 2018, 03:29:51 EST When even the hype vids that VFL Films puts out are better for hoops than they are for football... :thumbup: :powert:

Post by: Black Diamond Vol on November 06, 2018, 03:45:53 EST BTW, might this be the most likeable sports team we've ever had? Not only do they all represent themselves and their school very well on and off the court, but they seem to have fun doing it. I've seen teams with lots of personality that were full of thugs, and teams full of choirboys that acted like automatons. But it's rare that you see a team with the best of both extremes. There don't seem to be any Tony Harris or Ramar Smith types on this roster. This is a group to truly be proud of.
(And now that I say that, Grant Williams will probably be arrested tonight. :rolleyes:) Title: Re: It's official- we're a basketball school... Post by: VinnieVOL on November 06, 2018, 03:45:07 EST Yeah they really seem to genuinely get along. Great team chemistry can lead to great things!

Post by: Creek Walker on November 06, 2018, 06:16:36 EST This is one of my favorite UT squads ever...right up there with the team that Bruce took to the Elite 8 and it will probably surpass that one by the end of the year. Major Wingate has become maybe my all-time favorite UT basketball player.

I usually only pull the second TV out on weekends, but tonight I'll have basketball on one and election coverage on the other. :thumbup: Title: Re: It's official- we're a basketball school... Post by: Creek Walker on November 06, 2018, 06:45:38 EST Major Wingate? :confused: Wrong rank. Obviously that should be Admiral Schofield. It's my deadline day and my brain is fried. I just jump online for a couple of minutes here and there to catch a breather. :laugh: Major Wingate is not anywhere close to my all-time favorite UT player, for the record. :biggrin: Title: Re: It's official- we're a basketball school...

(CNN) Democrats win, it's a typical midterm swing of the pendulum; the president's party loses an average of 24 congressional seats during midterm elections, and it would've been far worse if not for Trump's willingness to stump for GOP candidates. (Fox News) There, I saved you the trouble and you can just watch basketball. Title: Re: It's official- we're a basketball school...

Title: Re: It's official- we're a basketball school... Post by: volsboy on November 07, 2018, 12:40:03 EST Yep gonna be a fun season. I didn't realize Coach K is 71 years old. As much as most hate Duke and UK, that's a pretty tough first game of the season for them. Should be a good one. Most have UK ranked just ahead of UT in the polls, so I hope they start off with a L.
