I think both the baseball and the softball team rank above the basketball program in consistent winning, at bare minimum on a similar footing. I guess if you want to disregard the baseball team because Vitello is gone now you could, but as it sits currently still the only program with a streak of 5 straight supers appearances, plus the natty.
Tennessee finished ahead of Florida in the SEC and won the East. UT earned a 2 seed, Florida earned a 3 seed. Tennessee's body of work that year with a much, much smaller team was better than Florida's. It's a winning argument.
I agree, but he can, I think of Haralson as a Cade Cunningham kind of player. His shot is going to come and he is already a great passer. Not saying he is a PG like Cade. They both finish at the rim, almost any time they want to. Just their style of play and Cade had to develop his shot. In other words, I think Haralson has mad potential, especially if he develops his shooting. Plus, he's my new favorite Vol since Amari left
Because Brown isn’t the rim protector Rubin is, he’s not an alternative? That makes no sense. Of course he’s an alternative. They have different skill sets. Just like Felix and JP had different skill sets. The alternatives at the 5 are Rubin, Lue (who is also a good rim protector, averaging 1.4 bpg last season) and Brown. That’s not “zero alternatives.” That’s 3 different dudes with 3 different skill sets. And we’ll likely add a 4th.
