So Djurisic will go coast to coast and finish with a finger roll how many times this year?

I won't be able to tell you, I will only watch Georgia 1 more time this year. If I had to throw out a guess, I would say it won't be the last time.

What I've said since the Memphis game. This is a poorly coached team with no heart.

You are pathetic. You truly are. You should be embarrassed to call yourself a Tennessee fan after that.

You can say a lot about this team. But they have heart. They played their guts out. They just aren't that good. They've played hard in every game this year. There might be a player or two who hasn't, but collectively they have 10x more heart than last year's team.

Seriously, pathetic.

Stokes 11 pts. and 8 Reb. ; Kenny Hall 4 points and 3 Reb.

Hmmmm.... I wonder who should get more PT?? Why did Kenny Hall play 4 1/2 mnutes of OT and Stokes only played 1/2 minute?

I would not say poorly coached. We are limited on offense, that is not Cuonzo's fault. The majority of the guys we play are not offensive threats, they are also not the players that Cuonzo recruited.

This team is playing really good D right now, that is in part because of the coaching that Martin has instilled in them. His coaching prowess is defense and this team is actually playing it.

You keep making excuses. I'll keep telling the truth. I fine with that.

I don't agree. Lazy players that don't rotate, box out or go for loose balls (mainly Hall and Cam tonight) have no heart on the floor.

Stokes - 2 games into college career

Hall - Junior with atleast 30 college career games

I know who I would have in there at crunch time. Kenny knows the defense we are running, he played good D on his man. Jarnell is still new and still learning the defense.

Players with no heart would have quit after Austin Peay and packed it in. Players with no heart would have put up a no show against UF after losing to Memphis. Players with no heart would have gotten blown off the floor against UK after a heartbreaking loss to MSU.

I said earlier that there have been a few instances where a player looked like he didn't want to be there (and almost always Cam or Hall) like tonight. That was inexcusable from them. But everyone else gives 100% and plays their guts out.

You keep praising lazy play and calling it effort. Real smart on your part too - I've been trolling UT sports for 4hhars. Bri

I don't keep praising lazy play. Does it look like I'm given Kenny Hall and Cam Tatum props? No. They are the two guys who don't give 100% and it frustrates everyone. Everyone else has given 100%. Two players don't make a whole team.

has to totally be on him. Stokes didn't play the entire OT until 26 seconds left. Without him, we never even get to OT. For some reason, CCM is determined to play him as little as possible. Don't understand.....

And you really think that's what cost us this game.
We lost this game in the first half giving up easy baskets on transition.
Our guards were loafing down the floor. We gave up at least 10 points there.
And we don't have a guard that can handle the ball without turning it over or make a pass to the right color shirt.
Your lazy guards cost us this game.

And you think Kenny Hall doesn't?? I'll take a lost Stokes on defense over Kenny Hall any night. We win if Stokes plays in OT.

I'll take Kenny Hall on defense and Stokes on offense, right now. Stokes was also drained. He's not quite in game shape yet.

We have already gone over that. Stokes gets lost on defense.

Yeah sure, and Jamal Lewis wasn't good at pass blockeing, therefore he didn't play until after the FL game his freshman year. That was a great move by Fulmer wasn't it.

Botton line, Stokes is better, by far, than any other post player we have (Maymon is good too) and should be playing 25-30 minutes/game. Hall and Woolridge should come in ONLY when he needs a breather.
