Game Thread: #20 Lady Vols v #18 Fighting Irish, Home, Wed 5PM, ESPN2

[ttharp]

Other than Karo, none of the post players have any fluid, back-to-the-basket post moves.

 

[RAVOL]

ND is scoring too easily now.

Quicker than us shots starting to fall but if we will be patient we do get good looks ourselves. Last 2 shots from JP and Sarah were forced and no need.

 

[Voluble2]

I really really hope this coaching staff can help Jill. Painful to watch her regress like this.

She had a good first half. But she really cost us in this one. Hopefully she will settle down.

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

Jill cost us on three possessions there.

Bad call by refs on Striplin.

There have been multiple instances of giving their defense freebies with contact followed by touch or imaginary calls on our defense. At least 4 of our turnovers were the result significant contact on the arms.

The 3 guard offense (Powell, Spear and Wells) is a joy to watch. Should be their starting lineup.

Gotta have more ball movement. Wells had to try to create it herself since no one was moving on one possession.

I thought her defense was OK. To my eye, she hasn’t been a difference maker on offense all night.

Hidalgo getting so much love….

 

[87&91ALUM]

Cmon Vols!

Agree, but she was rebounding well and playing defense.

Our ladies are tansing up now. They need to answer.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Turnovers hurting us.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Darby for three. Gotta play better Defense.

 

[ttharp]

EMBARRASSING!

 

[87&91ALUM]

Good time out. Are these announcers Notre Dame grads?

 

[knoxvol52]

Better get a TO baby....

 

[volforlife10]

taking spears and wells out the game caused this. don’t go away from what was working…

 

[SGMVols]

Defense starting to disappear again. Layup after layup

 

[VolBalls33]

With Key not playing their isn't any post defense with JH on the bench. Hollingshead needs to be in for defense.

 

[Voluble2]

Needed a timeout a little sooner, but at least Kellie called one.

We have shot well from three and that is all that has kept them from making a run. But they are scoring at will now and we need to figure out how to stop that if we want to win.

 

[volnationnj]

Have to hope the right combination of players get back in the game.

 

[RAVOL]

Let's go Ladies composure. Quit rushing shots. In CHRIST Alone

With Key not playing their isn't any post defense with JH on the bench. Hollingshead needs to be in for defense.

Kellie screwed up not adding another true center in the portal. You can’t put all your eggs in the Key basket not knowing if she can even play.

 

[knoxvol52]

No life in building at all...
Anyone know what attendance for tonight is?...

With Key not playing their isn't any post defense with JH on the bench. Hollingshead needs to be in for defense.

Hollingshead only has 4 blocks on the season so why put her in for defense ?

 

[And1]

We're gonna find a way to lose this ya'll
