Facts hurt your feelings, I see. Take off the Orange sunglasses. I hope TN wins every game in every sport, even rugby. But USCjr would beat us at any arena in the country. Not sure what you can’t comprehend.
And I’m referring to women’s basketball.
Not picking on any particular post but does it seem like when we play like we did tonight in the first half the problem is coaching. When we play like we did tonight in the second half the coach gets very little of the praise.
Maybe it is that way with all fan bases
Well we shall see about that on Feb 7 at our home court.I am hopeful but not at all confident that the LV's will win...there will need to be much improvement between now and then ......is it possible .....all Lady Vol fans hope so.Did LSU not just lose to Auburn?
Trailing right now to Alabama.
It’s ridiculous how people talk up LSU as if they are a dominant team.
Of course GT,,,mine too...always have been, always will be
I have two teams I never root against
Lady Vols, LA Lakers...both since the mid 70s
Justine's my girl.
A perfect game sunday would be Justine goes 4-6 and lady vols win by 20
My Dad was all about JoJo White, John Havlicek, Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, Robert Parish and "Team BB"My friend was one of the PR guys for the San Diego Clippers, when they were in San Diego....He would have me come to some of the games, especially when they played the Lakers and several other big name teams...,
I would go to the dressings room area with him to sort of hang out and talk ball, usually why we lost.....These guys really went after each other with all kinds of smart ass comments about how bad they played....Lots of laughs.

How in the world can you pre determine a sub pattern before a game. That's got to be the STUPIEST thing I have ever heard of. No wonder we look lost in the first half. CKH did not learn that from coach Summit. Kellie hardly ever came out of the game when she was playing. Coach Summit made the statement several times that she was the coach on the floor. I would really like to hear the logic behind the sub pattern.
My understanding is the sub rotation is roughly determined beforehand by the whole staff then Jon and Joy tell the players when to go in. Then you see Kellie subbing thoughout the game as circumstances dictate.

This Lady Vol team has a Jekyll and Hyde personality like many Tennessee teams of the recent past. Once they got ignited in the second half they had the game in hand. Hope they beat the frozen rain storm back home in time.Kellie made good adjustments at halftime.
First half was painful though. Hard to forget that quickly lol. This team is hot and cold to the max sometimes.
Let's start with Karolyn needs to sit at the beginning of every game. The reason this defense is starting off the way it is is because we don't have a post that can defend the rim. Karolyn works hard but she'll never be 6-5 or 6-6 and that's what you need in the SEC. Tamari needs to be back in the starting lineup, we need to win the opening tip and we need to set the tone on the defensive end from the jump ball. Karolyn can be a very good sub, but she is not a starting 5 player in the SEC. Teams get on a roll, build confidence, and all of a sudden we find herself down 10-12 points by the end of the first quarter. That needs to change and it starts with the people defending the post so that the guards can get up and play against their players on the outside a little tighter knowing there's somebody back there that can block shots.Have to give Coach credit for going with Tamari and Kaiya. I know players Like Karoline and Tess have to sit, but this was just the better matchup for this game. I mean we dominated the second half 45 to 27.
Harper did something right as they came out and played well in the second half. It was great to see. You have to give her credit.Not picking on any particular post but does it seem like when we play like we did tonight in the first half the problem is coaching.

South Carolina is the #1 team in the country. If I recall, they beat the Lady Vols twice last year, once in the SEC tourney. They beat TN once in 2022. And I think we split in 2021.Seems yer memory is short term. Check that record.
One of top Kellie fire bunch said.Kaiya Wynn!!! Wow!
13pts
0 TO
3 steals
1 assist
5 rebounds
Did someone say she wasn’t ready? The work over the summer has really paid off!!
Maybe Kellie did.If it would be appropriate, I would love to kiss the above stat. Makes me feel giddy with joy, especially against a defense that towards the end was supremely focused on turning us over. I know we can't expect this every game, but did anyone think that Wynn could make this much progress overall and in the critical point position especially. It is a near miracle, with Key's dramatic turnaround a close second.
