I’m concerned about what the recruits in attendance are thinking/feeling. At least the crowd is nice.

It looks pretty empty upstairs?

I'm thinking they feel NEEDED!

 

[newladyvolfan]

Too many of you fans are drinking the Cooper Koolaid….. she’s not a winning player. she needs to be like our 7th best player on the roster

 

[Volfan2012]

Really never seen us play this way all year. Just throwing shots at the basket. Not getting back on defense. Looks like a long night for this team if they don't get it together.

 

[newladyvolfan]

We are going to lose by 30

 

[lfvol]

Puckett and Spear jogging back on defense is maddening.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

I’m sorry- but Kellie Harper was more competitive than this vs LSU.

Lol just no

Regroup and come back. Down 9 in the first qtr and you say this

 

[ttharp]

Regroup and come back

lol

 

[alexvol]

Wrong people shooting three's ,throwing the ball away,no defense ....no defense at all ...I say again no defense .Like Coach has said pick someone up when they cross mid court line .....uncontested layups again and again.

 

[Vols2015]

Finally Jillian pulls a charge!

 

[volsagain]

Turnovers is the biggest thing hurting right now. Still got to stop the dribble penetration.

26-17 end of Q1

Well if these teams are going get CKC teams this is the year to do it. Because when CKC recruiting classes start arriving it's going be a bad day for rest of SEC..

One of the worst things to happen to us is hitting those 30 3s it seems to have left us with a lack of appreciation for an open 13 foot jumper that should hit at 60%. I love the pressure and the running but the goal is to win. Turnovers have killed the last two coaches we’ve had. Once again I have to say 20 turnovers will get you beat by a good team. “if u live by the three then you……”

oh god don’t start this crap. She’s a sophomore who’s averaging nearly 20 points and can play some of the best defense on the team. GTFO

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

I've also noticed they have no sense of time... 4.5 seconds and don't even get a shot off... And this is true across women's basketball not just this team

 

[newladyvolfan]

If we get embarrassed … you can kiss Big O and Trinity goodbye

 

[zaqhhh]

Their shots were just too easy, if we force them to take actual shots rather than layups, this game is even

 

[Voluble2]

That first quarter was about as bad as anything Kellie or Holly ever put on the floor.

They need to wake up or they will get blown out.

 

[BruisedOrange]

Watching on the radio, it doesn't sound like LSU is negating anything we normally do... it sounds like we are simply not doing the things we normally do.

Hard to press if shots aren't going in. Are we taking open shots?

Also, if we're sending all 5 to crash the boards on offense, that would help explain the fast break points. Is that what's happening? Or are the girls in no man's land on rebounds, neither defending nor rebounding?

 

[Volfan2012]

They had a plus seven rebound margin in that quarter and we threw the ball away four times and took numeous run at the basket and throw up a prayer. Really bad play very surprised at how were playing this game.

You see how many layups she gives up. How she doesn’t pass to the open person. Dribbles the air out of the ball. Should I continue

This game should be on TV. This is horse shxt
