Sounds about right!! Because we had 5 5* players on the court for a lot of the game and we missed 10 free throws, had 17 or more turnovers and one even missed an uncontested layup. Either the ranking system is very bad, or the coach isn’t coaching or the players don’t seem to care. What do you think?So you don't respect your coach who has 3 national championship rings, took a mid-major to the Sweet Sixteen last year while TN couldn't get past the first round, and is one of a handful of coaches to take three different teams to the NCAA tournament?
If that is true, then you have no business playing college ball.
Hard to believe that players disrespect such a coach so much that they deliberately miss multiple free throws, miss uncontested breakaway layups, and just hang their heads and quit in the middle of a close, winnable game against a ranked opponent.
I agree. Start tearing into some players and refs.One of the 10 players on that team could have guarded carter. I'd have found one to defend her. And if your going to foul make sure she remembers it. These touch fouls were pitiful. Finally kelly inherited some players that really shouldn't be at this level, others who transferred who could have helped, injury to a scorer also hurt. The kid from Alabama is a hoss and if she can get the kid from Muscle Shoals look out. But Kellie needs to get in some faces players and referees time for kid gloves is over.
Good lord any positives from you? Why watch if you can only see the bad.This staff has improve nothing with these players, turnovers have gotten stupiier, and why a 6ft5 player is trying, and can't make a cross court pass this late in season is pathetic. Entry passes are horrible, and boxing out has gotten worse, not better. Free throw shooting is assinely bad. Yes, players shoot them, but seriously do something about passing, and foul shooting period. With recruiting being subpar, we are slipping further, and further, please tell me what we have improved on? Westbrook wasn't happy fans ran her off mainly, but we lost Collins. Holly would have been doing better than this. Team doesn't even know to foul, or pressure as clock winds down, and Kellie doesn't bother to use timeouts! Lack of communication is on staff. Lots of bad calls, but coaching, in game coaching, players not knowing how to pass, Kellie and company are a D in my opinion. Out of her league!
It will either be six from the SEC or seven don't know how it will turn out. Were still in range to get in can't afford to go worse than 10 and 6 and may need a win in the tourney. would be surprised if we can't get in with 21 wins when we made it with 19 last year.Glad we played harder. Disappointed that we can’t seem to put it all together. With no wins vs ranked opponents I think were done for unless we make a big push in the SEC tournament. I don’t foresee the Arkansas game going well. They have the top scoring guard trio in the entire country and we obviously have difficulty guarding quality perimeter players. If we win that one there is a shred hope.
If she were on the team now she would be the best post player on the team no doubt in my mind about that.
We have a guard who runs the offense (such as it is) extremely well. Not sure how much more you could ask of your pg than Jaz stats today: 9 pts on 57% shooting, 4 rebs, 6 assist, no turnovers, 2 steals and a block. She now leads the SEC in assist/t,o. ratio. I'm good with that pg!We need a guard or two to run the offense hopefully there is a Grad transfer we can get. Horston needs to move to a position where she isn't trying to pass inside her passes are telegraphed and weak.
She needs a helper other than Jordan or Jordan needs a massive training program this summer.We have a guard who runs the offense (such as it is) extremely well.

What we need is a 2 guard whose every touch is not an adventure and who can score to help Davis. Rae is starting to fill the second part of that need. We also need a reliable back up pg so disaster doesn't strike, like today, when Jaz is out.
I think there's general agreement that JH's confidence is shot right now and she doesn't need to be anywhere NEAR the point position.

You can't think like Key is doing you got to make a move and get a shot up there.getting the ball into the posts is a feckless exercise if the posts hesitate to shoot and/or miss their free throws ---- they might as well shoot it whenever they get it in the paint because their passing it out skills are weak, to say the least -- Kellie is right when she says the last inch is a mile --- maybe next time

I don't think we moved out of ten spot today don't know where we'll be if we lose the Arkansas game. Were around 45 rpi sos is like 70 so not good. if we don't make it will be bad because we've never missed but if we haven't played well enough of course we shouldn't.How does our SOS and RPI stack up against last year? I think we had a couple of “quality wins” last year that helped us out a lot. This season we have no quality wins and our SOS is terrible.
