Non-Lady Vol Basketball News 2023-24

The only good thing about a cancellation is that the Nega Trolls won't be here telling us how we should feel about things like turnovers, missed shots and officiating. Only a flaming idiot would tell a fan whose team just got robbed that they should not complain about officiating. Unbelievable that some trolls can't take a hint and go to their own board. They bring absolutely nothing credible to this forum.
We fouled some yesterday but I thought a few of the fouls called were initiated by offensive player contact into the defensive player. One of the people your talking about always says all the fouls are legit and no they are not. I thought Burrell and Davis got fouled a few times going to the basket with no call. I don't care if they get 34 free throws just as long as we get something close to that. How did they play so nice that we only got 15. I didn't see much nice play by them they were making a lot of contact on defense.
 
if Jordan was averaging 15 a game and shooting 46 percent we would be close to undefeated no more than a couple of losses.

Hell, we don't even need her to score that much. Even 10 points a game with reasonably decent shooting and this is a completely different team. Tennessee is playing 4 vs 5 offensively with her on the court, and it's killing the team...

Says airports staying closed until 1 pm tomorrow. They going to make us fly in jump off the plane and play?

Really hope not.

The last thing we need the team doing is hanging out in the airport right now anyway. Need to get on a plane and go home before anyone else gets sick. If we have to have another COVID pause we’re screwed.

I’m sure coach is gunning to play but I don’t see a way they can safely get to Starkville. If we didn’t have the game Thursday we could work something out.

they would get on the plane and wouldn’t even have a proper warm up or walk through or anything ? that’s crazy and i hope the SEC would get them home safely
You wonder if the announcement will come soon already decision to close airports until 1 pm tomorrow what else needs to be said. Maybe they want us to grab a Greyhound Bus.

Unfortunately, not enough time to learn to paraglide, but you work with what you have. :(

In the 90's I belonged to a paragliding club in San Diego...Great fun, and it was not real difficult to learn....But I don't think the girls could learn in a day though, but like Rick said, that would be a hell of an entrance.

We already have enough games to qualify for tourney... If we play this game we play if not we don’t. But their safety is of utmost importance.

We will get a chance to play Thursday and again Sunday.
Maybe can get this game in Sat.

I've always felt the state of officiating at the top level of WCBB is poor at best. My personal belief is that refs get into a rhythm when making calls. For example Sunbelt games are played much slower than SEC games. If refs spend most of the week calling Sunbelt games they get used to making the calls at that pace. Top SEC games are played much faster than Sunbelt games. The ref gets into a SEC game, see a call and try to make it in the same pace as a Sunbelt game but the players have moved on and the ref realizes they can't make the call this late. Later on they get into the pace. That may be why you see fouls happening early in a game that aren't called and late in they game (when they matter) they are called. The refs eventually get into sync with the pace. But the players are used to the ref not calling anything and then when they do make the call all kinds of frustration happens. Top level games should be called by refs who only do top level games.
 
Most practices are harder than games they practice day before game so no big deal.

Oh sarcasm gotcha lol because i know you are not suggesting they play a game in mississippi and then travel for another game sunday

where’s that famous blue font people speak of on this forum
 
Kentucky v. Florida could be a good game today. They matchup pretty well. If the Kentucky bigs are hot from 3 again I’d take Kentucky.

I think Florida will get them at home 75-72.
