No, we don't, and yes, I saw that. You know better than most that you need the right personnel on the court to be effective in a full court press. We don't have enough of those ladies to sustain it against decent teams.

pressing teams do not like to be pressed,,,it is a coaching mantra
Miles, Horston, Walker on the floor with Rae and Dye on court run em for five min and then rest them

I would start all the bench players against South Carolina on Sunday to get the starting five's attention.

Then bring in the starters at the first television timeout.

Thoughts?

If the team was full strength, maybe, but with Horston likely out for the year, you've missed the window for going ham on the starters. Probably better to find the big ol' lever on the wall of motivational tactics called "do it for Jordan" and pull on it - and keep pulling on it - while you sort out the rest. In my opinion, anyway.

Never underestimate an opponent. That goes for fans too. I saw way too many post that didn’t respect our competition. Lesson learned. Lady vols get beat by good guard play every year. When will this onslaught stop? We need tough guards who can score, handle and defend. Did I mention we need guards who can defend?

we have guards that cna defend,,,miles, walker, rae, jh, wynn, darby can all defend
what we're lapsing in is scoring offense
we're relying on 1 on 1 and posting to get the job done

there's no read and react going on

Kellie will not have a greater talent disparity against another team in SEC play than she did tonight. It is not going to get better for her given what she has coming in and what is on the bench. That is more or less baked into the cake now barring a real treasure trove in the portal.
