Game Thread: (7/7) Lady Vols 59 - (RV/RV ) Florida 84

Our defense has left the building. We had the #1 FG % defense in the country and it has imploded the last 3 weeks.

To me that stinks to high heaven of chemistry problems. Defense is about playing for each other not for yourself. I see a bunch of people our there playing for themselves.

You don’t climb to the top of National stats playing poorly. Florida is shooting 51% and it’s not a surprise. Getting wide open looks at the rim then wide open looks from 3.
 
Gonna go ahead and lose by 30. Embarrassing. Makes me want to vomit. Turned it off 20 minutes ago but can’t help but check the score.
 
Well, I’m out! This was a sad game. Something is going on with our team, and I’m not sure what it is. Tamari was totally absent from defense today. She didn’t even attempt to block any shots. Rae and Jordan have been totally absent too, throwing balls away and turning the ball over. Why are we playing a zone when Florida has proven they can hit the 3’s? When will we learn that our style of play right now isn’t working? UCONN is going to have a hay day.
 
What happened to their defense. All of FLs buckets this quarter have been wide...and I mean WIDE...open!

It pains me to say this but I agree.
 
Tail wagging the dog. I like Coach Harper and believe she will do good things at UT, but some of these players need a knot jerked.
They play with focus, they can beat anybody. Seems like they came in here snoozing like at Auburn and expected a lesser team to roll over.
Maybe she should lock them out of the facility like Coach Summitt did.
 
CKJH called a timeout to yell at the ref.
I think the real reason is a general frustration with how her team is playing.
Maybe she should yell at one of them.

She's about 30 pts too late calling a timeout to stop the runs.

Lots of Vols half-assing it since it became an obvious loss. No pride.
 
Rae shouldn’t be playing at all. Her head is in the clouds. Awful turnovers and bad forced shots.
So we’re blaming Rae… no1 was saying that the games she played well. Can’t have it both ways. The fact is that they’re defensive effort (all) isn’t there and hasn’t been for a few games. They rely too much on Key’s play defensively and when he she struggle, so does the team. And this zone is horrible
