Game Thread: Lady Vols v MTSU; Away game; Wed Dec 6th at 7:30PM; ESPN+

Fight back!

In the presser the reporter asks "Coach you said you want the team to take ownership of the loss..."
Kellie says, "Individually they've got to look inside and see where each person can get better..."
I blew a fuse at that point and cut the thing off.

even the game announcer said this multiple times....."TN made no in-game adjustment to their high-screens for the shooter..."(and did not extend the low-post's defense, leaving the 15 footer open all game.)

MTSU literally ran the same set over and over with no adjustment too counter it.

They, We, us,,,,How about "I"!
 

Ouch! That was actually hard to watch. Makes me feel sorry for Kellie (as a person, not as the coach).

Interesting that she said rarely is MTSU going to win the points from the bench battle. Well duh, when you have your best players on the floor together the majority of the game, it builds chemistry and each player knows what to expect from the others. She sounded totally clueless.
 
I still don't see lack of effort or don't give a sh*t. I see scared and tight.

And a regression of player ability that's shocking. Tess is better than this. Jewel is way better than this. Jill is better than she's been playing. Absolutely could not have players doing the opposite of steping up w their star out.

Really, I just want to watch Rickea Jackson play basketball a little more before this hellscape of a season is over.
Ultimately it's the staffs job to prepare the girls to play and play at a high level. That's not happening.

I know it’s hard or whatnot but change needs to come sooner rather than later.
 
Yikes! Does anyone know who that was that asked, if EVERYBODY needed to look inward starting @ 8:03?! Took poor Kellie by surprise! 😂😂😂
Pretty sure it was Cora. They weren’t letting her get away with anything. Even asked her about the sh#tty end of quarter plays

She looks like a coach with no answers......defeated and lost.

And judging by what we have coming back and lined up for next year.....I think the time for a move is coming soon.
 
What's the implication here? That Striplin is disgusted with Harper? Or that Harper is lost at the podium? Or both?
Neither. It’s a ridiculous picture to try to show anything, and unfair. There were several times when Striplin nodded in agreement with what Kellie was saying.

your call
All I can say is, rewatch the presser, turn the volume off and don't take your eyes off of Karo
and remember Karo just had a career high

ridiculous?
When I nod my head "in agreement" with someone, I look at them and nod to them

For 43 years I have read people faces,,,other coaches, players, parents
The eyes are indeed the window to the soul

MTSU starters played all but 4 minutes, and they extending the lead in the 4th Q. Darby shouldn't be playing 31 minutes period. What does she have on Kellie and staff? Or is Kellie really that bad at seeing what's happening on the court?
 
A very hard loss to take tonight. Karoline Striplin was on fire. EKU Sunday then a few days off. The lives of the girls on this team is more than basketball. Kellie loves all them, and is teaching them about life after basketball. I know as a basketball fan that is very important to me. As always go Lady Vol's.
What’s she teaching them about life. How to be a loser? No thanks
 
Man what!! Trying to spin this team looking the way they are looking into some kind of a positive thing is beyond wild. I’m sure Kellie loves these girls, but Kellie is not good for these girl’s basketball careers plain and simple.
