Game Thread: #17/19 LADY VOLS VS. TEXAS

[tinabrammer]

If they could make lay ups and make foul shots we would be ahead!

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Ugly. I hate Texas and I hate losing to them even more.

Yep, well said.

 

[KellywillwinNC]

nice call harper..your team is down by 6 with 29 secs left and you go with an inside play call..geniius

 

[Ladyvol777]

Tough loss but I still love my Lady Vols. I just had a bad feeling that Texas would play there best game and they did. We are very young team and will get a lot better. As always go Lady Vols.

 

[volman128]

Texas is garbage this season.

Not a good loss in any sense. Especially at home.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Ok a$$ hat. Sorry your feelings got hurt by someone pointing out the issues this team has had in tis pitiful effort today.

LMAO.......don't get mad at me bc Tenn lost today....

 

[KellywillwinNC]

sec play will be rough

I haven't seen all of the games, but what does KK bring to the court? Poor defense, misses layups, slow, bad hands, am I missing anything?

 

[Volfan2012]

Not winning shooting 31 percent for the game. Not their defense we couldn't make a shot. I think some recruits that are better shooters in the classes to come.

Not much

 

[volman128]

Honestly this is the first game where it's looked like Holly's been coaching. Poor fundamentals, bad shooting, poor FT shooting.

Cool down, Hollie.

 

[TJVol95]

Bad ugly sad loss. Poorly coached again. GLV

 

[Volfan2012]

Miss St lost on their home court to West Virginia today so poor showing by the SEC

 

[Vols2015]

Coach Harper did need to call that timeout earlier in the first half. With that said, we can’t be pessimistic based on one loss. Tennessee will regroup and will win at Stanford. I’m calling it now! Gotta stay optimistic!

I ask this about 4 or 5 players on this team. We have to recruit better. And to this point, we aren’t.

Stanford will destroy this team. I’ll be stunned if we stay within 20.

You think we're going to beat The Tree? At Stanford? With Pac-12 refs and with ... you know ... them being #1?

LOL

 

[Darth_Vol]

Had a week to prepare for this game. The team was unprepared and Kellie was thoroughly outcoached by.... Aston. Hollyball 2.0...

 

[Putbacks]

Competitive pride is still not there. Too much casualness and carelessness. To this team, losing is just another option—a reasonable possible outcome.

It is going to be difficult to exorcise the demons that Warlick left. She impacted the mindset of this program in negative ways through negligence.

Now Harper can show the team it’s loss as evidence that there is a long way to go. She has been saying the right things, but I don’t think the players were buying, at least their play suggests they weren’t.

 

[Franklin Pierce]

Harper’s fault.

 

[Coach Jumper]

It isn't about recruiting. We've got the athletes. It's about stopping a damn run

I’d rather see a loss now than 6 in a row in SEC play. I suspected we might lose this game. She Who Must Not Be Named’s weak schedule isn’t helping anything either.

Texas looks so much like us the last two years. They’ve got the pieces to be great on any night, but you never know what you’re gonna get. They’ll be up and down all season, beat a ranked team then lose to a sub .500 team.

Riiiight. Says the typical message board troll that starts sh*t but gets their feelings hurt when someone calls them out. I made a statement about how bad this team played today and you chose to be a smart a$$ in your response. But I'm the one that's mad...

 

[PG1]

sec play will be rough

Look at the results of the SEC Big 12 Challenge the SEC is the worst P5 this year!

 

[Volfan2012]

Texas has played like garbage this season but they still have four five star players and three that were ranked in the top five in their class on the court. They should be a lot better based on talent alone but we really couldn't score the easy shots today.
