I saw nothing about South Carolina that suggested we can’t keep up with them. Kim just needs to find a way to bring things under control when we get into run and gun mode on offense. It kills our flow and we don’t really play good enough half court defense to prevent quick buckets when they get rebounds and run the other way. Creates big swings quickly.

Not impressed with them

Not trolling, observing. I’ll gladly admit being wrong when the time comes.

Trust me, nobody’s looking for your endorsement my friend.

TN needs to get some kind of inside game, did not get any from HS so they gone have to get a big big that can rebound and defend the post

They have three McDonald’s All Americans, and five Top 50 recruits.
This system is not featuring that kind of post player I don’t know why anyone still is wasting their time focusing on a traditional center being recruited.

 

[ThatVolGuy]

What’s the deal with Zee? She just feels a bit off lately.

 

[mudcat1973]

Worst shot selection that I have seen since my Biddy league experience .......just throwing the ball up and hoping ....

Video game basketball

 

[ttharp]

What game are you watching?



It’s a 9 point game.

Have you taken notice of the way Joyce Edwards is cooking our entire frontline?

 

[ShortyMac10]

Halftime stats so we rebounding but not making shots

Exactly. Funny how the same posters up and down this thread have said a word in the two threads about the McDonald’s All-American selections heading to Rocky Top.
GBO!

She had the flu during the Texas game. There was an iconic shot of her breathing through her mouth. She still doesnt look like she feels well from my vantage point.

Yeah the game changed when she came in it felt like.

Yes they need a big that can actually make a difference. We don't have much of an inside game were that one player aways from really be a very good team.

 

[Orange.]

Almost forgot. Gotta let Jackie the GSD run and play fetch. She says halftime is her time.

 

[cwbytruckers]

Cooper thinks she touches it she shoots it. That’s going to get us beat. Must play as a team against SC.

I don’t care it’s a 9 point game.

SC has Elite Roster. It is why you must recruit big time to play at this level. Just look at there Freshman AA and all who say all our AA coming in want help Coop and Whitehorn next year. SC has 10 deep AA players and it shows especially on Defense. They never have to play help side can defend 1 on 1 . There D is best period in country. Now let's keep fighting Ladies. Never give up. In CHRIST Alone

New to observing? You observed us getting boat raced last year somehow manage to transition those to 1 point losses this year. Seems the style is working even with the talent gap, if you’re observing.

Agreed, they need an athletic post who can at least rim defend. Doesn’t have to be a great scorer. Something in the mold of what Okpara is on the men’s team would suffice.

 

[1morevol]

LVs are + 8 offensive rebounds, 23.7 % shooting overall and 18.2 % on three pointers. There must have been at least 6 airballs. Yet, SC is well within reach.

 

[VolBall09]

9 points. Not insurmountable. Hardly ideal.

Rebounding, the complaint of late, is much better. Got a lil rattled, but never stopped fighting. It's going to take an epic half. So I'm rooting for epic.

Better than some of the other holes we have dug recently. Unfortunately likely too much against the #1 team in the country. Hard to play from behind against a defense like South Carolina.

It looks like a team being forced to play a style they aren’t capable of. Hopefully the talent influx is all that’s needed.

Hard to miss

Don’t ever give up!

Put SC talent in our system. That many AA playing and subbing in just as a good as first 5

Better shot selection
