Game Thread: SEC: Lady Vols v Wildcats

[fall2hb86]

its more than a lack of talent problem...but no one wants to accept that reality

Definitely not just talent, they have no will to be better

 

[brubaker]

Well looks like every team with a ut on it lost today.

Makes me worry about tomorrow....

I was pulling for Kellie but I just don't think she is the answer based on the chemistry that is apparent that we just don't have. In Pat era the only players that she would have on this team would be Horston and Davis. Man it hurts that this program has went to ****!

She was not the answer when they hired her

Rae not closing out on the 3 shooters, classic example of letting bad O effect your D.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

Jordan is the only one who can take a game over for us, let her shoot.

No way. Win or lose, that team will be ready tomorrow. It's almost literally a play-in game for the NCAA tournament. Tennessee will be dialed in.

 

[Voluble2]

There is one piece of help - Zaay Green. I have no idea if it will be enough, but I expect the turnover issue to settle a bit with her (hopefully fully recovered) out there. Not sure about the rest.

That's a good point.

Embarrassing. Lady Vols getting skunked.[VIDEO=][/VIDEO]

Nobody is beating KY tonight, they can’t miss.

Glad that one fan has hope.

 

[Putbacks]

We give up 9 threes and switch to a zone!

 

[volnationnj]

Kentucky shooting out of their minds. That last 3 was from 30 ft.

 

[KrazyVolFan]

Kentucky shooting lights out....

 

[tinabrammer]

Boy, Ky. Is really draining those threes! It seems everyone on the team can make them!

Defense terrible.

 

[tnvols72]

Defense terrible.

fact

 

[Voltopia]

On a positive note, I'm not sure what the record is for a fourth quarter comeback in the SEC tournament, but the fact it's a 22 point deficit means I don't really need to try and find out, either.

 

[BreatheUT]

Kentucky is hitting shots but the defense is inept as well. Players all over the place.

 

[Putbacks]

You can shoot lights out when the deadbeat opponent gives you 3 quarters worth of confidence.

 

[Voluble2]

Threes are easier to hit when you are wide open. Our defense consists of getting lost and then running at the three pt line when the other team has a wide open shot.

KY is shooting the percentage they shoot during a shoot around because they have no opposition.

 

[Vols2015]

Defense terrible.

Actually our defense hasn’t been too bad.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

The bad thing is that there is no help on the way. The players who are coming are worse than the ones who are here so this year or next year will be the high water mark short of recruiting picking up a huge amount.

Not so, the 2 coming are better than most of our bench, and one is a prolific 3 point shooter.

 

[Prophet1]

Will we even get a NCAA tournament bid if we lose this ballgame???

YES ...on name only.

 

[volnationnj]

Kentucky with back to back 27 point quarters against us.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

She was not the answer when they hired her

This^

 

[zaqhhh]

Our team speed is horrible, so many lanky girls who cant run. I know size is our strength but we have no speed whatsoever and it kills us in the turnover and defense departments.
