I went to Bolivia a few weeks ago on a mission trip and we were downtown in La Paz one day and I was hoping to see someone wearing UT garb but no. I did see a young local lady wearing an Auburn Tiger hat.

I'll go with it until we get something better

We got way more out of this 5 star player's career than any other I can remember. One and done guys who really contribute, like Kennedy, are great but give me a team full of JJJ's

What BS did Jackson State hep on Deion? Serious question. I never heard much of anything about it.

I guess you’re trying to be funny, but if we sign any big man from the portal it’s likely Estrella won’t start over them either. I just don’t think he’s ready for it yet. Hopefully he makes a big sophomore leap though.

You'd think that a wide open 5 spot and playing with a PG like ZZ would be a nice carrot for one of the top big men. I like Estrella but he needs to develop more. I see him coming off the bench next year.

I guess I’m a little older than you and don’t use Google as my friend very often. UT website shows Estrella is 241 and Aidoo 240. I don’t believe it. Height / weight listings are often incorrect, especially for freshmen. The eye test says Estrella is much thicker than Aidoo. Regardless, he...

Yes, Estrella had one decent game this year on defense. That is 100% because he had more weight to use against Edey. Rest of the year he was a liability on defense and non-existent on offense. He has upside but he's nowhere near Aidoo's talent level right now.

Estrella is not gonna start over Aidoo

Defense against Edey is all about strength and weight. Ya'll all need to consider that Aidoo has little of both and is more a finesse player. He's been great most of the year but simply didn't match up well against the oak tree. The others did better but still got abused by him. I'm proud of...

Yeah he's pretty good with the mic. On the other hand, I love Candace's homerism and she absolutely can't hide it but I personally don't think she's a natural at it. I hope she improves but it feels like she struggles to get her points across at times.

I thought Gainey saved it before he touched out of bounds

Part of my plan would be to have hard drivers like Knecht and Mashack drive right into Edey and try to force quick fouls. Maybe we could clamp down on the rest of them after that. I think he can guard Aidoo and Awaka without fouling but refs are more likely to call fouls on him if there is...

Having lived in both states, we have 2 different kinds of necks: TN = rednecks TX = roughnecks

After watching the Creighton game last night I worry that Aidoo and Awaka won't be able to shoot over him but the pick and roll game and anything fast break should be in our favor because is pretty slow getting up and down the court. It also seems like they don't have the dudes to beat us off...
