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

If you want to defend the coaching and results on the court, by all means knock yourself out.

Not being a jerk, but don't understand why people continue to support such apathy...

So you think it adds value to your criticism to call him "Clipboard John [sic]?"

I remember how nasty posters got toward Holly and would hope that discussion of the current program would refrain from that behavior this time around.

How expressing that equates to "defending the coaching and results on the court" is beyond me. I suppose you also think those who say that they "love Kellie as a VFL but not as a coach" are also "supporting such apathy."

Questioning many of the coaching decisions and calling some of the latest losses "bad" and "horrible" do not equate to "defending the coaching and results in the floor." At least, not in East Tennessee among mature adults.

Likewise, pointing out inconsistencies and inaccuracies is just keeping it 100.

Gonzaga is a ranked team, no reason a LadyVol team should lose that game with Rickea out, we should have so much more talent. But without Rickea most teams will have better overall talent than us.

They are ranked 23 now in week 5, in week 4 they were unranked.

Haven’t missed seeing any of your other posts, and you probably shouldn’t be calling anyone a fool.

Says the one that can not tell the difference in "not saying we should get rid" and "fire Barnes"

I've never said to fire Barnes, I haven't said to fire Kelly. I just said they need to hire a big name.. because I believe she will be let go based on what I've been told.

So. Now you’re an insider with privileged information. Tell us more..

Ouch, that will be a team that misses the women's tournament then. They look unathletic, fundamentally flawed with no real identity.

I like Holly, I just don't think she is the coach we need.

Another knowledgeable post. Thank you for your input.

 

[Butch s]

She learned from that loss, and will get it done against Sc

What is “it” exactly

 

[Butch s]

Not everyone is on her level and can control a game like she does. U can say whatever, but u need the talent to back it up and the will to win.

Who is responsible for bringing talent on board?

 

[djtee]

You fans beat up Kellie and you should, But how about beat up this portal bust and yes i said bust as it stands right now Jewel Spears. last 3 games 75 mins played 14 pts unacceptable for one of the top portal pickups.

I'm not a insider. My niece works for the AD and has for years. She said they have a lot of booster complaints. Idk if she will but it seems that way

We will win

Coaches, and that’s who I blame for that.

Have you been told how to spell her name? As an “insider” I’m sure you know.

Lol, watch out the spelling patrol will arrive any second....

 

[VolFuture]

She has not given us any good minutes. Sorry, clearly you’re related or a friend. Kid does not have it for this level. She looks lost, slow and out of her league.

Not her fault. It goes back to the coaching and inability to recruit. She should never have been on this roster.

We can disagree but I won’t be changing my opinion.

Not trying to change an opinion. But letting u know you’re wrong

I love the spell and grammar police. It's close to trolling and one of the lowest forms of posting.

And perhaps, the sanity patrol as well. The idea that great players can automatically transition into great head coaches, with no prior experience has always baffled me.

 

[Orange_Mamba]

Maybe if reporters would’ve asked Holly more direct questions and not let her skate on I don’t knows. Maybe we wouldn’t have needed Evina speaking up in the presser.

I agree, Parker will not come here to coach now anyway...
Two reasons imo
1.She will play in WNBA next season
2. She has a great job on TNT.....

Perhaps knowing how coaches and players spell their names would indicate at least a working knowledge of the program?

How about you learn to love grammar first?

I would think the recruiting coordinator, but the head coach needs to close the deal.
Were a few of the players we were close on went elsewhere for NIL promises?

 

[pasadenavol]

So you think that the staff bypassed 5-star players who made official visits here to add Edie and Ace? And wasted valuable time and resources to recruit them? That's a hot take.

These coaches can't get sniff 5 star players and that's the problem!

RJ came her because of Jordy...she stayed because of NIL

A quick search says you’ve had a problem putting two t’s in Summitt yourself. Just looking for working knowledge.
