Zeigler on the men's team comes to mind. I believe he was the SEC defensive player of the year once. Its all about effort and determination.

Defense can be taught but it takes dedication and hard work. It's all about moving your feet in the right stance. That's why CKC subs as much. It will wear on your legs and affect your offense. Our defense really needs to improve this year.

The only logical explanation to most of this disinformation spreading as a fellow poster stated is not everyone on this board is a Lady Vol basketball fan. The ones who claim to be fans while never clapping when success comes are hasten to become adversarial towards those who are genuine supporters in an attempt to take away from the big moments under CKC.
That pretty much tells you all you need to know.
And I’ll add, if the Pauldo twins had committed to another school over UT you can bet following that McDAAG showing the very fans questioning her size would be ironically saying “we” missed out on an elite PG.

Kinda funny folks are questioning how the Pauldo twins could possibly be good defenders because they're so small as if we didn't just have the snallest PG in the SEC for 4 years on the men's side win SEC DPOY 2 times and earn SEC All-Defense all 4 years.

It's almost as if size isn't everything when it comes to being a good defender.

Any news on visits? Baseball games yesterday and today, good recruiting opportunity.

 

[Mr. Doo Wop]

The Pauldo twin who played in the McDonald's game looks like a really good fit for Tennessee. She looks confident, has good handles, and looks like a true leader. Tennessee has a good one.

It's equally about threatening the ball and knowing your opponent. If the opponent with the ball is not in constant fear of you removing the ball from their person, your job (and your teammates' jobs) on defense just got much harder. You also have to be aware of what they want to do and be one step ahead.

Finally, never look at an offensive player above mid-torso.

We had one poster who probably just spouting off saying Latson was visiting. Guess we'll find out if they knew anything.

I think/thought that this was a dead period and visits can start again sometime next week.

 

[mudcat1973]

Does Edie also receive a discount 50% off or full from her father for be a state of TN worker?

Any in state student is eligible for lottery scholarship money

Don't know how much other scholarship she's applied for and gotten.
I'm sure Edie - parents - University have sign all available to her.

 

[Volfan2012]

Supposed to be through the 7th which would be through to Tuesday. We got some posters here that evidently are trolls just giving out false information.

If you’re talking about the person who said Latson was visiting which I think is the only viditong claim so far, they stated she would visit after the dead period is over. Don’t know if they’re right but I don’t think they were being a troll.

 

[Hooper22]

I stated she would be visiting next week, which would be after the dead period. They want her here. I don’t come here to spout out information for the sake of it. Have I always been right? No, but I like To think what I say here is pretty accurate.

 

[aWhiteLoftonChism]

According to the NCAA, there are 5,048 women's college basketball players total.

1,178 have entered the transfer portal this year.

That’s insane

It wasn't you was another person. Your usually quite accurate.

To me scoring efficiency is more important than average Latson has a good one 1.27 but some players are a lot better just don't take as many shots per game.

Ta'Niya Latson Career Stats - NCAAW - ESPN Latson 1.27

Kneepkens has a 1.49

Garzon 1.245

So all three of these players are comparable with Kneepkens the highest rated offensive player from an efficiency percentage.

A player we have been associated with T'yanna Todd has a 1.192

That is just the 1.2 you are looking for.

Williams has a 1.345

These four players would up our offensive efficiency by quite a lot as we did suffer a lot offensively on efficiency per possession. We just won the possessions in most games which made our scoring average look better.


To compare Cooper only had a 1.046, Spearman 1.291, Spear 1.24, Whitehorn 1.08, Spencer 1.14 So two of the players that played the most were over 1.2 the other three were below.

 

[Volfan2012]

WE GOT LATSON!!!!

Here on April 5th this is awesome news. Thank you for telling us.

 

[mudcat1973]

Some players might be waiting to see how that court case goes through today if it is.Today.
And to see if a university would offer them some of that Revenue sharing money.
Most of the players agents might be waiting on that settlement.

Above 1.0 is acceptable offensive efficiency IMO. Where Cooper shines is defense, she is a 99th percentile defensive player. She does it all, steals, rebounds, cleans up for others and turns her defensive brilliance into opportunities in transition.

FWIW I started out a Cooper skeptic - Coach J might remember - because we had respectful disagreements this time last year. I thought she was too poor of a shooter to help us. He had seen her IRL. My take was way wrong. Cooper is a good enough 3p shooter that you have to respect it, and she's just very special in every other area.

 

[DeerPark12]

It looks like she has the Covid year and she only played in 9 games this season, you need to play less than 30% of the games for a medical redshirt and she qualifies for that.

This was her Covid year.

As for the injury redshirts, it’s 30% of the teams scheduled games, which does not include conference tournament or NCAA tournament games, PRIOR to suffering the injury.

She has the best chance to win an appeal on the 2023–24 season because Tennessee only played 28 of the allowable 30 regular season games after a couple of scheduled games (Stanford and UConn) were canceled/moved by other teams. So playing fewer games was outside of her and Tennessee’s control.

This season, she only played in 9 of 29 games, BUT she did not miss the other games due to injury, she was available to play in them. To earn a medical redshirt, you have to miss a game because you were not available.

Definitely someone you want in your lineup.

Do you feel like the competition each player faced, and the systems they played in, on the way to those numbers was strong enough to make their numbers impressive as compared to our players'? I don't closely follow any other conference. I pretty much just look in on different Top 25 teams now and then during the season.

Wonder how they'd do in the SEC?

Don't know played in the Big Ten, Big Twelve, and Acc which all had teams that performed good in the tourney overall. Latson played really well against us. UConn going hard after Williams so that tells me what they think of her play. Kneepkens would be one of the best players in any league. Very talented player.. Garzon could play in any league as well. She can really shoot the three.

WE GOT LATSON!!!!

Present the evidence. GBO.
