Game Thread: LADY VOLS VS. CENTRAL ARKANSAS

[T.J.]

Come Monday night at ND it will be a good test. We'll be 2-1 after it's over...

You're such the optimist.

Key is the key...

Tamari is tall and long arms ..... she looks 6’6/6’7 and keeps the ball above her head..... gonna be our best post player in a long long time.

Unfortunately I missed the game also due to
a commitment last night. Great posts by a lot
of people. Glad there was improvement from
the previous game. The team chemistry sounds very encouraging.

Jordan Horston had a great game scoring 17 points

So not a single LV player from Tennessee? Surely that will change when CKH gets recruiting rolling. GO Lady Vols...take it to the Irish Monday night.

It’s already changed for the next season as Tess Darby has committed to TN.

I think when all is said and done the 2019-2020 LadyVols will win 21 games and will be a #6 seed in the NCAA Tournament

Isn't Massengill from Tennessee?

As opposed to Tennessee's entire roster playing in a new system? I agree Notre Dame doesn't have a great team by their standards, but you are greatly overestimating Tennessee at this point and their ability to win in a hostile environment. Notre Dame will, and should, be solid favorites in this one...

True...but even then, I think ND's decimated roster will be too much a hurdle for them to overcome. They've basically lost two starters off a thin roster in the first week of the season. Half the team are walkons. If Tennessee can't put this walking wounded team away, then...

Looked good at times vs another inferior ball team! But I see structure that I did not see last year!

Coach Harper knows what she wants and the last head coach Holly Warlick didn't have a clue at all

Air Balls? I do not watch a lot of Women's college Basketball but is it normal for a P5 team to shoot so many Air Balls or is that a expected part of the game. Congrats on the win GBO.

No Massengill listed in the 12 on Coach Jumper list. None from Tennessee.

 

[Tennesseefan2019]

Hopefully Coach Harper will wind up being a Tennessee version of Baylor head coach Kim Mulkey

 

[lvocd]

I love this so much. Oh my goodness!

Yep Mass is from Chattanooga !!!

 

[LVsinceJV]

Massengill from Chattanooga, McCoy from Knoxville.

Brunelle, Peoples and Gilbert will likely have solid careers, but they are playing their 2nd game of their careers with no one who has played a full season on the team. The entire roster has no experience in the system.

I know Muffet's a good coach, but this is beyond a Hail Mary...

It will be a rematch of sorts, Horston battles with peoples in a high school game last year, and against her in McDonald’s game. Brunelle was her teammate at USA basketball for a couple years so hopefully she can shed thoughts on her weaknesses.

McCoy and massengill are from Tennesse

 

[feathersax]

McCoy and massengill are from Tennesse

Wondering why neither was listed on the roster in this thread.

 

[Volfan2012]

JMO I thought Kamera Harris looked like the second best center on the team. She played solid defense and looks like she has really worked hard on her offense inside. She did take that one ill advised shot but am impressed with her improvement.

 

[Volfan2012]

Rennie plays a solid game as well looks like these players could be really effective by seasons end.
