    1 second left and you don't offer any defense?

    She didn’t set up a defense. Couple of timeouts. See Rickea and TK standing in no-man’s land. Use a TO. Such a disappointment. Maybe this is CP3’s last year and they can steal her away from commentating. When Dawn started coaching she was still in the W. That might give her a big...

    Can someone please teach Striplin that she has got to play help defense?

    They’re 9-5 and struggling a lot more than they should. How about yours?

    Ugh, I should just stop, but with the winning lineup in, I saw a ton more movement on defense with some really great help. It just seems so obvious that changes need to be made.

    I agree. Don’t know what Sarah Puckett adds at this point. Starting Tess is better. Starting Wynn may be a lot better. What does a player need to do to dislodge Puckett from the starting lineup? Maybe she has a little more fire if she’s not handed the starting spot. swapping 5 for 5 at the...

    Our bodies heal. Cardiac muscle can be replaced with scar tissue. Her heart may be healed to be “safe and appropriate” a term of art with likely no judicial meaning that implies safe, not likely to be further damaged and appropriate meaning carries on the function necessary. A safe heart, I...

    We speculate a lot on this board. Suggesting that there is damage limiting her progress seems like a viable explanation. Speaking of processes that could happen did not speak to the extent of her injuries. If medically cleared, and allowed to return speaks to the potential for regaining her...

    I am not certain it’s black or white like that. For one thing, Cardiac rehab has been shown to be beneficial for most cardiac patients. Also, lung tissue has been shown to have a capacity to regenerate. It was caught early comparatively to many as she was still fairly capable. What I...

    Missed most of the game cuz of the holidays. Her +/- however was 15. Far above anyone else on the team. Played so many minutes that it’s hard to call it a fluke.

    So, speculating on the cardiopulmonary details involved, but ima take a stab at some basics. PEs are clots that have traveled to the lungs. Those clots prevent blood flow. Blood flow pools and becomes stagnant depriving O2 to the lung tissue. Also, the blood backs into the heart, which...

    Non-Lady Vol Basketball News 2023-24

    We all have to speculate quite a bit. But when the plantation master only is concerned about the yield and not the players getting the job done this is what happens. The reason Rickey handled it with grace is because Kelly obviously cares about each member of her team a whole lot.

    Angel Reese got her bag. I’d like to see her walk and convince the team to go with her. Mulkey is awful on so many levels. The biggest being who she is as a human. She’s a racist, against all things LGBTQ, and supports misogyny. Not a great mix to have as a female basketball head coach...

    Sure my musings have been said, but too disheartened to read everything. But, hee goes: 1) Rickea. 31 and 17 wow. Defense was spectacular. If only one of the last 2 shots woulda dropped. 2) thanks a lot Tess. WTH are you getting a tech for on a fast break layup. I know it’s not the 80s...

    Excited for the game. Having people over to watch. Very interested to see how they ref this game after the Carson-Newman game. Cheryl Reece demands physical defense. Wings couldn’t get out of MN before they injured one of the stars. Team USA Plato g Reece ball should foul out by midway thru...

    Only got to see bits of this game. Too busy to at any point even sit down, but did try to catch as much as I could. Missed all of first quarter and was surprised to see so much Darby in the second. She didn’t even sub out with the first wave. Defensively she looked atrocious. Blew by the...
