Not sure its a matter of KJH settling for players as convincing players to settle for us. Pretty sure she didn't turn away any better players than the ones we ended up with.

Right, and that's a problem. KJH gotta make them want to want her. Hopefully she will, we'll see.

Good points...the transfer portal is a source of riches, but Kellie has to make Tennessee a desirable destination for the elite players in the portal.

The Lady Vols lost to West Virginia in overtime after having 20 turnovers in the game with West Virginia converting those turnovers to 19 points!!! It was turnovers last year and so far it is turnovers again this year. Coach Harper so far has done absolutely nothing that shows to stop the turnovers. She should apply the Rick Barnes turnover actions...if a player has a turnover, he has to run all the way from the playing court to the top of the arena and back. After a few trips, it becomes important to the players to not have a turnover. The teams of Coach Barnes usually has around 8 to 9 turnovers per game. Surely Coach Harper is going to have to do something to stop the turnovers or the Lady Vols will be losing more games that they could have won with less turnovers.

I don't care who one is playing, one can't win very many game with 20 turnovers and shoot less than 40% from the field and less than 15% of their threes.

I don’t have confidence Harper is going to get it done.

I have an observation that may be wrong or right, however, we are expecting KJH to bring in 5 star recruits, however, Holly had I believe 28 5 stars and did nothing with the LVs. Unless you hire a known winning coach from a high powered program, it hurts the next coach in. KJH is going to have to do what Wes is doing at NCState, and that is to win with the hand that was dealt to her. Holly had an edge that KJH does not have, in that program history played into Holly’s recruiting advantage. I personally think that the LVs downward trend under Holly did not do any favors for KJH.

This team continues to turn the ball over. Every year same thing. I hear you. Getting old.

The team doesn’t value the basketball. The hard truth. And it manifests itself in risky passes, traveling, indecision, charges, stepping out of bounds. This team finds every way to turn over the ball in every game. It’s systemic. Also, their offensive flow and timing are off and that contributes to several turnovers.

IMO the shuffling of lineup is a major contributor to turnovers.....lack of chemistry with players not playing long enough together.Hope ,that quantum improvement is seen in the very near future.

I don't think there is a substitute for winning in the modern era. Kellie knows this as much as anyone. I'm not too worried about a game like this given circumstances. As long as we get better everything will take care of itself.
