Why, is what happened in Q2...they played like crap and nothing was done about it....why?....We stayed close and that was good enough.

Standard of play = lowered.

Not for me!
Not for this coach!
I want perfection...I demand consistency...and yes, I even coach effort.

This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is truth.

It looked like we were going to be world beaters this year & go to the Final Four w/freshmen that were on fire from the jump.

If we can get another 37 to their 25 I suspect we win doubt we'll shoot 30 percent again.

How many 3 pointers did Holly shoot in her hey day? Like coach, like player I suppose.

Three point 1 for 11 by the Lady Vols I suggest they stop shooting those if that is the best they can do.

Got outrebounded 22 to 15 but they had 11 turnovers to our 1. I never thought I would see a half that we had only one turnover. Hopefully that doesn't spell turnover trouble in the second half.

Is there anyone this team that can generate any enthusiasm. They act like they don't want to be there.

We have no outside shooters and all of our opponents just dare us to shoot outside. No leaders on this team. Why are they afraid to shoot, why do they not shoot? Can someone please tell me?

You are 100% correct we have no outside shooters from the pg or sg position, I have said this from day one and this is Holly fault. There was no sense of urgency in practice to push Westbrook or Hayes to improve there outside shooting and now that failed tactics has come back to bite her in the rear.

it took a little while for holly's coaching to completely kick in.

People laugh, but I believe this to be absolutely true. All those talented freshmen just went out and played. Now that they’ve been “coached” they’re hesitant and insecure. That is 100% coaching.

Everything was good except the shooting. We gave up a few layups on bad defense but overall if we shoot the ball at all we've got a double digit lead. Sometimes I wonder why our girls sometimes have such a problem with shooting the ball.

They let that rare good 3 point shooting night vs Mizzou go to their heads and are now taking too many 3 point shots.

The LVs don't really push until they get behind and are in danger of losing. Letting bad teams hang around, get hot and outhustle them has become their MO.

Their intensity has a real live switch. You can see it. They turn it on and off when they want to. Does anyone know who the unquestioned leader on the floor is for this team? They still seem to lack leadership at times.

This FL team is awful without Washington. No ball handlers. As bad as Tennessee is playing, FL is dead in the water.

Is fla really this bad. They look like a high school team we should have this thing put away and playing our bench.

Not sure they really have an unquestioned vocal leader on the floor. Jaime Nared is the closest. Meme Jackson has the most intensity. It's like they have a default setting and notch it up when they feel they must.
