Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[Orange Studs]

We just can’t shoot . That’s our main problem. We don’t have any scorers

And can't take care of the ball. Way to many turnovers.

But serious question though.

Will we be better with Jaden and Keon coming in next year at the guard positions or will it be the same as this year? I get our guards overall will be better, but again we won't have any quality big men. I mean, your lineup can be Springer, Johnson, Pons, Fulky, and the 5th player can be whoever, but after that, you have more guards such as JJJ, Bailey, Wideman, Beckwith (If they play), Jalen Johnson, Vescovi, Gaines. For our bigs we have Plav, Oliver, Fulk, Pons, and I think Walker.

I'm excited for BB next season, but also worried considering the lack of big men, which could cause trouble next year as well.

The new guys will help on the offensive end a lot. Add some development for everyone coming back... How Barnes emphasizes defense always....I think we bounce back well next season.

We're still one of the best defensive teams in the conf. We are awful on the other end... How many layups have we missed this year? I mean really.

Don't forget Evans. Uros will be much improved next year. Remember this is really his first college action. We have limited scorers this year. Next year we'll have multiple players that can score. That'll open it up more for everybody. We could use another big body.

I forgot Pember as well

 

[jakez4ut]

Refs are killing fulky

 

[franklinpence]

Hoping for significant improvement from Uros next season. Just need him to get that baby hook figured out. Could be deadly.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Another bull call. They can be as physical as they want. Refs calling two different games. It's obvious we got close and the officials are now doing their part.

Yup

 

[franklinpence]

I like Pember a lot. I think he will be a real factor in years three and four.

 

[jakez4ut]

All that said...I still love this effort.

With us losing pretty much nothing we will be better. We are taking our shots this year and Barnes will continue to coach up and add talent. I look for UT to be a top 10 team next year. I would imagine one or two guards might transfer and we will be in the running for some good big men transfers.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Vescovi not helping us throwing up so many half court shots

 

[InVOLuntary]

KY can beat us up, no call. We breath on them automatic whistle. Every time down the court.

 

[MrVolton]

Vols have taken twice the 3’s, and UK has twice the points the points in the paint.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Richards again over the back. No call.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Didn’t a DL coach just leave them as well? I wonder if these are planned departures or if assistants are jumping off a sinking ship.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Not a foul

 

[InVOLuntary]

Lol. You can't play defense against them. The refs have called fouls every possession for them the last several times down the court.

Can’t believe Burch and that RB went there

 

[JohnnyD1024]

Will Malachi Wideman play football and basketball here?

 

[TrippieRedd]

Can’t believe Burch and that RB went there

Their class ceiling is a 8-4 season

 

[appyvol]

Not a foul.

 

[VolInDayton]

We will talk to them when they are in the transfer portal after the season.

They’re driving the basket and getting contacted. Refs reward the more aggressive team.

And they're more athletic than we are; puts our defenders in some awkward positions.

I do think fulky is getting some ticky/tack stuff called in him tho
