Non-Lady Vol Basketball News 2024-25

I dunno...she looks like she'd make a nice SF somewhere. She's got a really versatile inside-outside game.

I’ve decided virtually no one makes a WNBA roster. Is Rennia secure on a roster now?

I believe she’s still with the Fever.
Roster - Indiana Fever

On Kyra's husband?

This is going too far. Kyra's statement should have been the end of it. There's no need to continue to air dirty laundry. It just makes everyone look bad.

Agreed. Decorum is something people easily cast off these days, but the truth is that acting properly has some value. If you represent an insitution, you keep your internal people informed and you act as that institution, not as an individual who's just "not going to take it anymore" or whatever his excuse for sharing that was. Personal bravado is irrelevant in this matter, not to mention lowbrow.

That said, that text was galling. If it's true, then Edwards and anyone participating should be ashamed - and shamed - for acting like such childish brats.

Just two really well-coached teams...

Once again, you never mention UNC when they lose. Why is that? You never criticize anything Banghart does, and her team is 1-3 in conference. Basically, you give a biased account of her coaching skills, or the lack thereof.

I have Darth blocked but feel certain that is who this is directed to. I might add blocking him is the best thing I’ve ever done on this site.
Darth will say anything he can to create discord and anger regarding anything Lady Vols. He is 100% troll and a bitter, disturbed Vandy fan. I would encourage everyone on here to block him.

Good guess lol

She's on the Fever roster, but still has to go through training camp. I read somewhere that Lin Dunn is looking for shore up the wing spot. Victoria Vivians was the starter from last season, and they have Tiffany Mitchell, Lexie Hull, and Rennia all part of the SF rotation. If they get someone like Haley Jones, Jackson, Horston or Diamond Miller in the draft, then Rennia will have a huge uphill battle to make the roster.

WNBA continues to be brutally hard to make and stick on a roster.

Mitchell is a UFA

...with a strength of schedule of 188! (lowest in the Top 50 RPI)

Mizzu will get a shot at home

 

[Orange_Mamba]

LSU gotta tough stretch coming up Auburn, Arkansas, and Alabama those some tough defensive teams.

 

[Darth_Vol]

I doubt she is let go at this point. White was given 5 years and from the initial looks would have been given one more had there not been a mutiny among the players. Ralph is on year 2 of what is a total rebuild. She will get more time.

This. Ralph lost three starters to injury before the season even started. Suggesting she is on some kind of hot seat midway through her second season is asinine, especially after she just made the Tennessee game far more competitive than it should have been.

Of course, we know Geno will retire any day now, so...

I agree, they can shoot the 3 well enough I think they might get them. They don’t match up with Reese that well but they will crowd the paint and make things tough for her. MIZZOU is a terrible place to play on the road.

I remember Drea Carter saying that was her least favorite place to play in the SEC. Tough crowd and the air in there just feels dry and different per Andrea lol.

I saw that broadcast. Sophie was in the crowd.

 

[LVsinceJV]

You would think that, but Courtney Williams still manages to find a way to stay on the rosters.

Lol she really does have nine lives.

 

[ncteacher88]

UConn plans to play on Wednesday. They did not say which of the four players was the one the tip the scale, enabling them to play.

The score ended right where the statistical predictors said it would. But no, she ain't on the hot seat, and in general, I think she was a great hire for them.

Outside of the top 4 teams, it is hard to say which SEC teams are good enough to make the tourney this year. I am starting to doubt Missouri and Alabama after watching each of them and looking at their body of work so far, but I suppose they might squeak in. SC/LSU/UT/ARK are in for sure.

The SEC is really down this season, I’m not sure there will be more than 5-6 worthy tourney teams.

Thoughts on Ole Miss?

 

[Rooster1]

Thoughts on Ole Miss?

SC-LSU-UT-Ark-OM-MSU-MIZZ-BAMA, in that order probably. Maybe 6-7 make the tourney, OM is better than Mizz and Bama imo.

 

[Amb3096]

Thoughts on Ole Miss?

Based on my eye test, I'd say the top half of the SEC are SC, LSU, Arkansas, Tennessee, Ole Miss and MSST. Not impressed with anything I've seen from any of the other teams.

Yea I agree. I can see Bama getting to the SEC tourney semis if they get hot from 3.

Hate to hear that. Really talented young lady, she has tons of potential.
