i have a lot of confidence when we have Puckett Horston, Darby, key, and Jordan on the floor. With Rae, Dye, and miles coming off the bench for more pressure. I honestly want to see more of kiaya Wynn before the SEC tournament I think she could be an X-factor that just hasn’t blossomed yet. I think we will need her defensive skills against SC. She just needs more in game experience.

Good win. Arkansas is tough and at least 7-8 deep with solid players. This was a tough win against a tough team.

Shout out to Tess who didn’t score but made some timely rebounds during the game. Very proud of her play overall.

Raeeeee she came up big. While she’s not 100% she looks to be about 75% back right now from where she will be as we continue to play. She and Horston are a SCARY duo to deal with for most teams… seeing them both be aggressive makes me have more hope for what this season could look like. If Dye’s shot would fall again(which it will) and Key can take advantage of her opportunities.. they could still go very far.

The next 2 games will hopefully allow for more opportunity to build the post depth giving Sara more reps to backup Key and that plus the UConn game should have us in a good position developmentally to deal with the loss of Keyen for the rest of the season

Edit: Tess hit a 3, even better and more deserved praise for her lol thanks @VA_VOLFAN @Memvol44 and @Volfan2012

Definitely not related to Jordan. Definitely just a fan.

Calling her a “lame duck” and making zero reference to what you were talking about was just a low blow.

The regular posters in the Lasy Vol thread know you were just driving by hoping to make a snide comment when they lost. Thankfully they didn’t.

No I wasn't Brady, imagine relying on a group of anonymous screennames for self validation of your post. Last I checked you don't speak for anybody on this site. You're just butthurt and sensitive because I didn't specifically layout exactly what I meant when I made a post. Here's an idea, instead of faux outrage how about you take an internal look at yourself and fix that instead of Brady Hoking me on a message board.

Her injuries the last month have put a no to her playing. I do agree she can be special one day on D end.

This win was needed! Ladies showed grit. Liked the poised but aggressive offense in the third; got some fouls called on Arky and gave us some confidence. Still plenty to work on, but spacing and pace was better. Need to figure out how to defend the drives to the basket. Snoop struggled tonight. Really need that mid range shot too. Proud of this team; will help put the debacle the other night behind them.

I’m not at all butt hurt. Just don’t see how it’s constructive to drop in and call someone a “lame duck”

She had 8 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 turnovers. Pretty great game if you ask me

I don’t care who this team plays down the line as long as they are battle tested and ready for SEC and NCAA tournament. This team need wins that count. The SEC tournament is when wins count. If they want to win big come March they know they have to go through SC. Bring on all competitors. Lady vols aren’t scared of anyone. They have to redeem themselves from the Michigan performance last year. (Still have a bad taste in my mouth about that loss)
