Commentators are saying Tennessee got screwed?
Click to expand...

They weren't quite that strong in opinion, like it was an egregious call (like the saints play for example), but they agreed it wasn't a foul. Like...a 4 person roundtable on espn. I thought it would be like crossfire with differing opinions, nope. Stephen A said it wasnt a foul, but hes an nba guy so I discounted his view a bit...then another guy agreed no foul, offense initiated. THEN they said, "surprise we are bringing in the college expert...what does he say?" and it was jay bilas. I thought he might disagree...NOPE! He said no foul too!! Basically gave in that it could have gone either way in real time but also said that the shooter, being so good, was basically given the benefit of the doubt. Said it was a situation where whatever the call, supporting refs werent going to overturn it being so bang bang, but being so marginal it just shouldnt have been called in that situation to begin with. Now i am more pissed

If you're making a comment insinuating Bone might be back. i'd expect to see 5 new starters next season. so, get used to it. iow, he gone.

I’m commenting that this particular post is no “farewell” and simply a “thanks for an amazing season.”

His decision has nothing to do with this tweet

No way this happens 😂turner is for sure staying and what mock draft has bone going in the first round? Grant is projected late first round which isn’t a gimme..especially because of how important academics are to him and his family and how his game translates to the nba

It’s really surprising. Holly is maybe the nicest person on that campus. There must have been just a huge disconnect between her and the team where both of them were just like “f it”. Which honestly Happens a lot

I can completely understand her hurt, so she has some leash here, but still sad to see this reaction

Is Bone even projected in the 2nd round? Feel like 1 more year could even push him into 1st rd territory but gaining an elite 3 would be crucial for him. Hes not the biggest guy

Yeah didn't sound like that conversation didn't go well. You can't keep a program that was on top and at least keep it competitive after what 5 or 6 yrs then you do need to move on. There is only one Pat Summit and no one expected Holly to even come close to what Pat did but she went competently the opposite way. And on top of that, tares the team apart in the process.

Not sure if it’s been answered but it’s considered “the act of shooting” till feet hit the ground.

Not how we played back in the day though. Incidental contact after the ball left the hand was nothing. It’s not like a late hit on a QB or something

Edwards didn’t even hit the deck. Easily landed on his feet. That little of contact is a foul on a last second shot?? Gtfoutta here ref
