Russell is letting these short girls disrupt her game. Take to the basket hard they want be so glad to make contact if you do that.

Could it be that Holly is thinking Big Picture? If we're going to go anywhere in the SEC or NCAA tourneys, we'll need Alexa to make solid contributions. Holly's got to play her so she can get her confidence back.

You're gonna need Nunn probably more than you will need Middleton especially when Russell is being allergic to the getting the ball out the air. MeMe nor Reynolds were the problem so why sub them until the were showing signs of fatigue and they weren't the person who was showing signs of fatigue/laziness was Mercedes and yet she was allowed to remain in

Nared can't guard Williams we should trap her when she gets the ball make someone else take the shots.

Five huge threes are the reason were winning because we can't guard Williams and had 7 turnovers almost in a row.

Russell, continually brings the ball down too low! That's something I taught players not to do in grade school. Go Lady Vols!

We are the stupidest team in college basketball. We play a brilliant first three-quarters of the first quarter--and then go into full stupid mode in the last 4 minutes. Nared twice tries to dribble through a zone defense--getting a shot blocked on one and losing the ball on another. Russell, with about 14 second left in the quarter, tries to drive to the basket and gets a charge. How dumb is that? You are 6'6" and slow, Mercedes, do not try to drive to the basket from beyond the free-throw line. Good grief.

And HOW MANY times is Russell going to follow a center out to the three-point line, vacating the middle and thereby allowing an opposing player to drive to our basket and score. I've seen this happen about 50 times this year, and it happened repeatedly all last year. Do you think our brilliant coaches would get it by now: keep Russell--6'6"--under the basket? Apparently not. We cannot play smart basketball consistently.

If Russell wants to make it in the WNBA she better stay another year and really pump the weights this summer. Still not strong enough for that league she still has problems in the SEC some games.

our lousy coaching! Yes, she does. Graves did it for four years! She did not learn, was not taught, to play high with the ball! Fundamentals. And you do not let your 6'6" center chase the opposing center how to the free-throw line, thereby losing your defensive presence in the paint!

I wonder which team is going to show up in the third. We need to get it over 20 were usually terrible in the fourth.

Gule you know that will never happen, she'll play most of the second half and Nunn will finish another game with like 8 points and 6 or 7 boards in 10 minutes and all Holly will say is we have to find time to play her more

Ok we can beat this Florida team.

But they must stop Ronni Williams from getting a career high because it looks as though she might be on her way in doing it.

But I'd prefer the win.

She is as soft as a bale of cotton. If she does not learn to be tougher, pro ball may only be a dream. She has the talent but must get in the weight room and on the track to learn how to run. She has to learn how to run on the balls of her feet and widen her stride. She is just too slow.
