For those of you who voted Fulkerson, what was the basis of your choice(besides your feelings)?

Fulkerson hasn’t played close to his standard this season, but it’s still Fulkerson by a country mile.

 

[vols 30]

It's still Fulky, but ON has improved( no matter what the haters think), and BHH will continue to get better.

Uros is good for a few minutes here and there in certain games and situations. Not sure how much he will play after Tuesday

 

[1985Vols]

BHH potentially. Needs PT

I walked by Fulkerson mixing with the fans post game. Next to those defensive linemen-like post players from a distance he looks pretty slight. Up close he is a very large man. I’m 6’3”, 245 and he made me feel like a little person.

For me, it's not how good Fulkerson is or is playing, but just how poor the others are!!

I found it interesting that in announcing the starting lineups, Jarnigan announced Fulky at 6’10”. I can’t remember that being the case before yesterday.

Can understand why you needed to ask this question.....

Fulkerson is averaging 1.9 blocks per game

By comparison, Pons averaged 1.8 last year.

I expect Fulk’s numbers there to drop a touch as competition grows more consistent, but still. It’s a good number.

His Block Rate is currently the second highest of any Tennessee player in the kenpom era. Just a shade under Kyle Alexander’s Jr year

Coaches teach all the players to communicate, rotate, and help!!!!
Interesting vote, smh
Not to mention ON finished third in the voting

Do you ever watch a game? Or basketball?

Fulkerson is still the only post we have that can defend his position somewhat effectively. Uros can’t body up due to lack of strength and is to slow to play off his guy. Orn and bhh are still too weak inside defensively and get pushed around. Honestly we have a collection of 4s playing the 5 (minus uros) but in that role Fulkerson is the most effective when all things considered.

Him being better than the other 3 listed.

ON definitely shows out some nights. And probably has a much higher ceiling.

But he's not exactly the most consistent guy in the world, particularly against tougher competition.

Why are you basing anything off of this game? It was like Billy Madison and friends against the kindergarteners.

Is this a joke? JF is so weak if he gets touched he falls and flails all over the place. Watch the next game and count how many times he either falls or almost falls.

I wasn’t, look at the total stats for this year

 

[golfballs]

Against Tier A opponents this year ORN has an offensive effenciency of 60. Which is abysmal. He can beat up lesser opponents but he’s quickly outclassed. I’m hoping he can be a serviceable role player but considering our schedule is basically all tier a and b games I really hope we’re not counting on much.

I agree, he is a bit inconsistent but overall he our best post right now.

It was a lesser opponent, why didn’t JF put up better numbers then?

He’s actually very consistent in that he plays good against bad players and plays bad against good players.
