Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Devo182]

1, 2, 3, 5 (us) all lost

Sports just be like that sometimes

CBB especially. So much parity. Great sport.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Basically same team we’ve had the past few years. Will have no-shows from some on any given night, any road game will be difficult, more than solid at home, pretty good ncaa seed, knocked out a game or two early compared to seed.

Nope can't be. You're just a troll.

That's what I get told when I point these things out.

This team has more firepower. Road games are tough- just look at all of them yesterday and tonight. Officiating was awful, and I didn’t even watch the last 10 minutes or so. So inconsistent.

 

[knoxvol52]

Y'all can go back to criticism

Not criticizing team had a great comeback, Tennessee lost game in first half..

It happens...

 

[turdherder11]

Oh well, 1st half killed us. Cold offense, vet players going MIA . Same old same old, hopefully they can get it fixed. Hard to win on the road in the sec

 

[landscapingvol]

Maybe. But every team in the country struggles on the road. This is CBB.

Of course every team struggles but Tennessee is inept offensively way too often

 

[SoilVol]

A game we needed to experience and get over with early in SEC play.

We need to be ready Saturday on the road against Georgia. Then we get Florida and Bama at home. A bad Vandy in Nashville. Then South Carolina at home to finish January.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

We need someone that will get to the FT when the 3 isn't falling.

Just a few more points when we are cold would be a huge swing.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

8/29 three point shooting. At what point does Barnes not realize we aren’t a 3 point shooting team? This is the same MSU that lost to SC and some team called the Southern Jaguars.

Jacking up 3s when we should have been driving to the basket. A physical big man for the opposing team. Typical Barnes.

Can we get back to laughing at bama now?

Tolu Smith just came back. That’s huge for them.

We have three point shooters. Just can get cold. We have to continue to shoot the three.

Not a lot of evidence to the contrary...

 

[Volator]

ZZ took a couple of ill-advised 3’s late in the game ( yes he was the only one playing in 1st half) and James missed a layup late, nothing from Santiago other than one steal. Need more from our leaders

 

[DD4ME]

That first half cold spell really put us in a hole.

And we need to figure out how to defend a good big guy.


GBO

These are our most critical issues imo.

 

[Smokey123]

6 ranked teams lost to unranked teams on the road today and yesterday including 4 of the top 5 and #7 UNC is in a close game with NCSTATE. We’ll be fine

 

[VolXr1]

That 1 ref had it in his mind not to let TN win at all. Called terrible/ghost fouls on Aidoo eventually fouling him out. Then that bs 10sec call costing Santi a wide open layup (lucky we still scored) but it was still a God awful call. Play 1st half like we did the 2nd. TN wins by 20+. We always have 1 scrub go off for a career high against us and have no idea why ..that freshman won't hit 5-6 3s or score 25 the next 4 games combined

[OrangenSC]

Kirby to the Falcons is picking up steam too

So, Lanning back to UGA.

Not gonna get calls on the road. Hubbard did have a night tho.

We shoot too many.

MSST attacking the rim and us not was the difference in them having Smith late and us losing Aidoo.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

So, 4th in the conference. What seed line does that put us on?

Our team did what was needed for a win, outside forces decided not to allow it. Are you able to see it?

A physical big man. Like I said, Barnes kryptonite. We have got to get better play from Vescovi and JJJ. They both are way too inconsistent. Gainey is giving us nothing. It seems like we can’t get consistency out of our scorers.

Agree, but the freshman is their leading scorer so far and shoots nearly 40% 3s. Got extra hot.

Stop with the excuses. We got out played.
