I guess I'll play as Carson Newman or Tusculum

Neither of those schools are NAIA......they are NCAA division 2.

 

[SmokinBob]

Too bad t-shirts, cutsie sayings and catch phrases don't win games. Gotta say those are some of the unhappiest faces I've seen in a while.

Yeah - I don’t see intensity or focus on any of those faces...

@volatil

At Bud’s Tire here and the Boro and guess what’s on the TV: HGTV!!!

Is this a national conspiracy or what?!?

Shoot me please.

 

[UTMVol76]

Pathetic

 

[SmokinBob]

All caught up, now!

 

[volatil]

Also about 11 LV fans that care.





That should get this going

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

I swear to god if someone doesn’t commit soon I’m going to do nothing but bish and complain on a forum. I mean business.

 

[AppStVol]

I hate to see Wake basketball in the state they’re in, now.

Agreed. With the amount of talent in the triad near campus it’s hard to believe.

Also, contrary to reports John Currie has no choice but to keep Manning. Dumb a$$ Ron Wellman gave him an 18 million buyout on that last extension. Currie learned from a very inept mentor.

At least you went to the right place.

Wonder if we have some wait and see goings on this year

Oh yeah, great place to get tires done.

HGTV, on the other hand, as expected is God awful

I always thought that being a fan meant that you supported the team no matter what. You think the players don't know that they've had a piss poor season by Lady Vols standards. I didn't think UT had so many bandwagon fans that they resort to making fun of the team theyre supposed to support. Am I disappointed in their season. Yes. Am I going to turn my back on them after they made the tourney? No. Shame on you and every other so called Vol fan throwing stones. Go Lady Vols!

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

If we played well and ranked high in the regular season, and ended up losing early in the tournament every year, but did it with real team players instead of mercenaries, I’d still rather have Barnes.

Me too..that is exactly what I meant.

I'm a fan of UT football and men's BB. Really don't care much for women's BB, and that was true even when Pat was coaching. Does that make me a bandwagon fan? Kinda the opposite really.

 

[Rishvol]

I see the LVs decided not to show up

 

[Big Z]

While idk if I'd put Larry Fitzgerald over any of the 3 WRs being discussed, I think his name needs to be mentioned more often. Dude is second all time in receiving yards, third in catches, sixth in receiving touchdowns, and played a good chunk of his career catching passes from an atrocious list of qb's outside of Kurt Warner and a couple years of Palmer.

Have they really showed up at all this year?

 

[volinbama256]

LSU--- never seen a team this bad at losing possession so many times from players on the same team fighting for the ball. comical. Need them to win since the entire state of MS didn't show for the tourney. We need the SEC to look better.

I don’t follow women basketball at all.

Zion Cam is stupid in itself

 

[butchna]

Zion Cam is stupid in itself

Gonna make a prediction that justifiably puts heat on myself...Zion=latter day Corliss Williamson.

 

[SweetasSoda]

“So if a kid is playing for Duke and making a few million from a Nike endorsement, why should the NCAA or Duke care? It's not impacting their bottom line at all.”

I think it will impact their focus and the team dynamics, though.

Also, I read somewhere that the difference between going first in the draft, Zion’s likely landing spot now, and third in last year's spot equates to a difference in around $6 million dollars over 3 years.

The opportunity to play under some truly good coaches, at universities with excellent facilities and training staffs, in front of rabid college fans; I don’t think you can put a price on that.

The opportunity to get a college degree - I’ve read and seen interviews with so many players who talk about how important it was to them and their moms and dads. For some, they’re the first in their family. The long term effects of that can’t really be measured. One can argue that they can get a college degree any time but for many of us, going back to school once “life” happens is rare. Not unheard of, but rare.

OK, I’ll step off my soapbox, now.

Excellent...all the things others do not take into account

 

[volinbama256]

1. How in the hell did we lose to LSU?

2. If they play this sloppy against Mich St they will get taken to the woodshed and embarrassed.
