Nothing is falling for the Vols. Shots are in & out.

42-38 Bama at Halftime.

Bama w/a 13-5 run to the Half.

If you are watching the game you have to admit the refs have been bad.

Correct on both ends of the court, both teams are fouling the crap out of each other.

It is so easy to a fan of the teams at Tennessee.

Always a great day to be a Vol!

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Ok .... explain this magic trick.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

I guess everyone went to take a nap?

I guess everyone went to take a nap?

Told my wife to wake me after the next 15 whistles.

Only got a 6 minute nap.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

I guess its not our day today. Z can't hit layups or his free throws.

Nobody else on the team is making shots as well.

 

[Halph66]

Come on ZZ.

When the offensive player drives his shoulder into the defensive player it’s a charge……Not beast mode.

Bama has been doing that all game long & getting away w/it.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Each ball possession is a battle to be able to keep it.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Vols down by 5 pts .... down 6 pts ..... down 9 pts. All game today.

No matter what kind of a comeback Vols try Bama has an answer.

All for a Coke & a bag of chips? Hope he was tipped $30 bucks.

 

[Halph66]

Rebounds are the difference.

Won’t be any starters left by the end.

Most don’t have no clue what athletes at the Academies go through. A sophomore who’s told he has a chance to be a first round pick, and is encouraged to transfer by his coach to pursue a one in a million life long dream isn’t a loser in my book. David Robinson and Paul Skenes are unicorns.

You act like he wouldn’t have gotten drafted and never had an opportunity to pitch in the majors. He would have had the same opportunity. You can’t teach what he has at his disposal. He would’ve been dominant in the minors and been called up to start as a September call up. Yeah his MLB time would’ve been delayed by a few months but he still would’ve made any MLB roster this year. And more than likely he would be pitching for a better organization with a better chance to win a championship.

 

[VolPack22]

Actually David Robinson spent all 4 years at Navy, believe he got some kind of waiver saying he didn't have to fulfill his commitment due to his basketball career.

He also won AP POY and 2x All American.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Vols down 8 pts & they come back to tie this game up at 66,

Z w/a bank 3 shot to tie this up.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

He also won AP POY and 2x All American.

Thanks, Boss.

This game is off the rails.

He had a chance to focus on baseball, and his body/physical development, in a way that he likely would not have at AF. He also got to prove himself consistently in the SEC, against the best college had to offer.

I don’t know if he is pick #1 from AF the way he was at LSU. That alone had a few million of value. His coach helped him make the right business decision.

Plus, Livvy Dunne.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Al player Mark Sears might just play w/a blindfold on.
Whatever he puts up goes into the basket.

 

[Halph66]

Oh man what a game!!!

 

[knoxvol52]

@taylorvol

I stand corrected I looked it up and David Robinson did his two year term after graduation from Naval Academy. Was #1 draft pick in 1987 by Spurs and joined the team in 1989... Napoleon McCallum done the same thing in football. He wasnt a #1 draft pick but reported to Raiders after his two year term was fulfilled...
