Generally true...but not in the tournament. D was sloppy and porous, combined with average O, they were sent packing.
It should not take televised half time pep talks by Pat to lite a fire...this team seemed to need that.
Agree. Glad someone else can see objectively what happened. Although screaming and trying to put the fear of God into players might work sometimes is that all Pat has left in her arsenal? Don't get me wrong, I'm a Lady VOL supporter all the way, but it seems a coach shouldn't have to do that after every half-time. I just don't think there must have been enough emphasis placed on D all season for them to look that bad in the tournament. Summit's teams used to blow teams out and with all of the talent she has, that's not possible? This team was way too complacent to only be up a bucket or two and cruise along. Hopefully the new incoming freshmen can bring some Meighan Simmons' passion for playing hard every possession.
