Uhm Jonas Aidoo, how TF are you? People are going to question where he’s been, I sure am about to…18m 5p 7r 3b, stuffing Tschiebwe’s $h!t multiple times

Barnes hand was forced due Nkamhoua’s injury, makes you wonder what they were thinking ? Stumbled into a “0h hell yeah”

Been reported that his family wanted him to redshirt and when ORN had his injury Barnes asked them if he’d step up and they said “yes”. But that reporting is kind of wonky since ORN was hurt at USCe and Aidoo played 2 minutes in that game (his 6th). Then he played 12 minutes in the next game at MS State. That only holds water if Barnes has inside info that the NCAA will be changing the RS rules to allow 20% participation (20% x 30 games = maximum of 6).

It’s clear what the strongest lineup is currently. Fulky and Aidoo both should be starting and starting Plavsic and BHH is just ridiculous at this point. They play the first 5 minutes then their minutes just come sporadically. Fulky and Aidoo play a lot down the stretch. Chandler-Vescovi-JJJ-Fulky-Aidoo should be the starting 5. They’ve earned it. Then the first one off the bench should be Ziegler. Fulky last night was the Fulky of old. He is a driving power forward not a post up power forward. He needs to take it right to the rim and either get fouled or score. I know he’s not our best player, but it really does seem that when Fulky plays well we usually win.

I'm for not changing it much if it's working. I'm good with Fulky, ZZ and Aidoo hitting in a wave off the bench if we aren't playing poorly at the start. Against Miss State we got up 14-2 at the start. Uros and BHH had 6 points and 2 boards in about 4 minutes at the start.

Agree. Nice to have that scoring coming off the bench.

Do you guys realize how odd this dialogue appears to everyone else? Asking for a friend

I don't care, but it sounds like TGO is tall man, 6'3 as a freshman in high school. Unless, he is one of those guys that are full grown by then and that's still tall

I’m a runt next to Dad. He used to belly up to Cumberland Ave bars now and then next to Doug Adkins and they were about the same size.

Those Tennessee players were definitely walking past the top of the key. It wasn’t called on the first two times I watched, but it was called on Aidoo’s FT attempt.

If you guys are talking about the free throw that was wiped off when Aidoo was shooting I am almost certain it was because Vescovi entered his spot after the ball had been handed to the shooter. That was my take at least.

ZZ and KC looked guilty and Barnes didn’t go nuts.

Violation was on Vescovi - imho. ZZZ and KC were fine. Vescovi found and settled into his spot after the ref gave the ball to Aidoo. It was pretty ticky tacky as he was close to his spot - headed there and turned his back to talk to one of the other guards and bamm. Usually the ref asks for the ball back and resets the lanes when guys are that close to being settled.

TV was on ZZ and KC at the time and didn’t show their feet. But it looked as if they would have been just beyond the 3PL. I suspected SV as well, but the cameras didn’t pick it up.

I was 5'10, at 16, 6'2 by the end of my junior year and finally 6'3 by the end of my senior year. How tall did you get ? I know old people shrink a little and I know you are an old hippie

I was 5'1 and weighed 109 as a Freshman. I was 6'2 and weighed 190 when I was a Senior. I had a good growth spurt the Sumer before my Junior year.

I was < 5' and wrestled in the 91 lb weight class when I was a freshman. My teammates got mad when I began to surpass 91 (mostly because teams usually had to forfeit against me with nobody < 91), but I told them I don't plan on being 91 lb for life!

It was an ok call - Vescovi did ease into his spot after the ball was given to Aidoo. The timing was a little unusual because typically they wait until everyone is settled/positioned prior to giving the guy at the free throw line the ball. It wasn't a big deal because
we were up double digits.

TBA Tuesday night was just further proof that we Tennessee fans are ABSOLUTELY STARVING for a championship, and no I’m mot talking about bowl championships or regular season championships.
