Game Thread Lady Vols vs. Western Kentucky

Love the consistency!! That's GROWTH!

Didn’t know if Destiny was going to get that one off.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

Destiny-layups, and a 3!

This is the best our offense has looked in over a decade . Yes it’s just WKU but we are ACTUALLY running plays and knocking down 3’s wow refreshing!

Horston looks frustrated. I was hoping to see her play more under control in her sophomore year but it hasn’t happened yet. Season is early and she has time to grow.

Everyone looks good too. No big standout aside from the surprise of Suarez level of play. Good basketball across the board.

It’s amazing how much better a coach looks when they have players in their 2nd year and have recruited good players to fill out roster

 

[Only1COJ]

Thank God for JoJo running the point. I can't imagine Horston running the point full time.

 

[PG1]

I had no idea WKU was missing so many players. Still good warm up game.

 

[Rickster]

Glad to see Emily getting minutes. She has a nice hook shot down low

 

[NoBackBoard]

I’m rooting for Emily Saunders. I just feel good when she’s on the floor.

WKU has a depleted roster this season but they are still well coached. Finished last season with an RPI of 31. To beat them by 40 is commanding IMO. Rare the last several years we’ve been able to coast the last 5 minutes. This one was never in question after the first few minutes. Much more consistent basketball.

It was a strange off season. She looks to me like maybe she didn’t get many reps. Wondering if she may have had a minor injury that kept her out for a bit. She’s much better than she’s played today.

Not sure what`s going but to be fair i stop watching after the 1st

I believe everyone scored except for Jessie. Those WKU guards defended well out top.

Lady Vols gave WKU their worst lost in a while-- this was their first game but so far so good.

If you watched at the end of the game Rennia said “ Where’s Jordan”? Key responds “ I don’t know”

Hopefully she was ok! she had an off day and looked frustrated but we all know she has the tools to succeed

I like this team we got 23 from the point guard position today. Walker and Salary look great at the position. Balanced scoring from a lot of positions.

 

[KrazyVolFan]

I was impressed, especially with the freshman.

 

[Real Info]

Waited until I watched the entire game before posting. Started off slow, but after that 1st quarter I enjoyed watching the Lady Vols! I just want to watch a team that values the ball, plays hard, and plays together. I saw that today.

Fan’s really spread out

Looking across college sports, it’s pretty clear that desire to attend is very low even for big time football.

 

[GameTime]

Team looks fabulous....
Suarez is a TIGER!!!!

 

[Volfan2012]

A lot more intelligent team than last season. You have to love Marta she is a coach on the floor and I thought Walker and Salary really made great decisions with the ball in their hands. A lot of weapons especially when Horston gets going she will have some big games for us.

 

[T.J.]

Good win!
My 5 top players for the game.
1. Saurez
2. Burrell
3. Walker
4. Davis
5. Salary
