Game Thread:Volunteers vs. Marquette

[VolGal423]

our passes look slow and un-energetic...anyone else seeing that?

 

[Sewaneetigers]

We're looking pretty bad.

 

[BigPapaVol]

this might have been mentioned, and if so I apologize, but is anyone else having bad flashbacks watching a UT game where the name 'Buzz' is being mentioned a lot?

Yes

 

[Dustin4Vols]

oh he aint in the nba? dang i mean i know his performnce dropped a bit bc of his health dilemma but i figured the nba woulda looked past that

 

[bburger991]

We're talking about excuses for looking lost.

It's a lot easier to look lost when your playing against guys who could be in the NBA now than it is when your far and away the best player on a high school or AAU team.

Yes, it makes me cringe every time I hear it.

 

[bigdaddy]

[Dustin4Vols]

Dude, we have people arguing and talking about soccer in this thread. Your topic is the least off-topic so far... lol:

lol yea you have a point there

 

[VOLS85]

This team looks drunk right now...they need to speed this thing up, wear marquette out, and get some serious transition baskets

 

[dickens821]

Yes, it makes me cringe every time I hear it.

Indeed

 

[BigPapaVol]

We look uncoached against any zone thrown at us.

He played on someones summer league team before being cut I think.

 

[HotlantaVol]

Is it just me or does it seem like all of Pearl's teams have trouble when the other team shows a 1-2-1 zone? Is that scheme kryptonite to our flex-screen Tom Davis offense?

 

[JAllen18]

Yes, it makes me cringe every time I hear it.

I hate to say it, but if we dont commit turnovers our offense is garbage.

 

[Ohiovol09]

WOW SO AWFUL vs a ZONE

And we are going to see zone all year long in attempt to slow us down and make us shoot.

 

[bleedorange0037]

the announcers just said Marquette is looking to "pull of the upset" how much of a upset will this really be? they're ranked 4 spots below us.

 

[dickens821]

Not if we would drive into the paint

 

[bburger991]

We look uncoached against any zone thrown at us.

Yeah..Tyler seems to be like the only one who even has any idea on how to break it.

 

[MillsfieldVOL]

we can't stand another loss
