Game Thread: (11) Lady Vols 67 - (12) Indiana 79

[Putbacks]

It’s like all of our players are freshmen on defensive help.

Anyone else find Hollingshead to be extremely lazy with an even worse attitude?

 

[vol94]

Was that a five second violation a couple possessions ago? TN was down four w the ball and now down eight.

 

[DoubleA]

We are very slow, telegraphing every pass, and playing like we cannnot play together at all.

 

[Orange_Mamba]

Key is showing and they are just staring at her.

 

[Majors]

Wide open Darby for 3 , backside of the glass

[MoCo_Vol]

How many offensive fouls is that now my goodness, self inflicted.

She doesn’t impress, need Franklin over her…or better yet, Puckett

 

[Voltopia]

Got it down to 4 but like always turnovers

Yeah, let's be clear about this particular "down to 4" - Indiana has given Tennessee about a dozen chances to get back in the game. The Hoosiers went cold shooting through several stretches in the second half, and more or less offered the lead to Tennessee. Tennessee, however, politely declined to take the lead.

 

[Rooster1]

4 minutes left, IU has been better team so far. Put the shooters in.

 

[cwbytruckers]

Last year Puckett got major minutes. This year rarely see her. We have a McDonalds all american Freshman that needs to see the floor every game. She cant be no worse than what we are seeing.

 

[DoubleA]

GET IT TO KEY IN THE PAINT.

we have a few athletes, but they are slowed down by our slower kids. Kills anything up and down the court

They just handed the ball back to them lol

Keys girl is soft Candice Parker would kill this Indiana team on inside back in the day

You can't compare Key to Parker--totally different players, alas.

Key had PERFECT position in the low post a moment ago and our wing player didn't pass her the ball. Bad basketball, as the color commentator pointed out.

Key has to want it in the paint

Nail biter
uhhh misnomer

Yeah, UT has not had an 8 pt run all night. Not likely we close out with one. Indiana is really a mentally tough team. We came out slow, gave them a lead in the first 5 minutes, and played them even since. They aren't going to give us anything. We are going to have to take it. We are just too out of sync to do it.

 

[knoxvol52]

We need to go away from this family within thing for Lady Vols, first Warlick now Harper. I am sure there are top notch coaches that would love to coach at Tennessee with their tradition, Also remember Harper wasnt a hire by our great AD Danny White

this is not high svhool so high school honors don't matter

 

[cwbytruckers]

Good Grief so poorly coached

 

[TN1111]

It’s getting close to that point in the game where the win is out of reach and Kellie starts having the players trap and play smothering defense. Always after it’s way too late. Can’t wait…

 

[Putbacks]

No box out by Walker!

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Same Ol same Ol with the lady Vols. Underperforming and getting outplayed. No discipline or toughness. Keyes will get schooled all year long, sorry she is too slow and soft. Kellie better start recruiting players that play with some authority and toughness. We need some true shooters. We are not a good fundamental team. We are underperforming still. Go Lady Vols find some toughness. Mental toughness too. We needed too make a change and thought Jolly could handle it, but I am starting to wonder.

 

[Majors]

That miss by IU sums up our defense. Walker lazy to the ball and gets beat by the shooter.
