Tennessee is loaded and I can be in the minority on the forum that thinks this way.

Six players averaging double figures.
That’s incredible!
Two players that have proven track records of success in Tamari Key and Destinee Wells that have potential to improve their play and elevate this team to an elite level of play.
With Rickea I’m taking Tennessee over Indiana 83-61
Without Rickea I’m taking Tennessee over Indiana 89-78.

Definitely early. But we're trying to overcome a reputation (well earned) of being "consistently underwhelming" and of being unable to beat ranked teams. Rare to have such an opportunity to change the narrative. Failure to do so would be a real setback IMO. Must win at least 2 of the 4.

If Rickea's still out we'll have a legit excuse, but at best will continue to tread water. Of course we could change it up in March, but I'd love to not wait that dang long.

One of my AAU coaches had a motto called “No Excuses” and that’s always stuck with me, if we are as deep and talented as some people say on here, there’s no reason to lose, even without Rickea. As for me I don’t have any expectation for the game.

The interesting thing to me about Rickea is how sudden it seemed. I’m paraphrasing but Coach Kellie mentioned after the Memphis game that Rickea had been in practice and it wasn’t until close to the game that the decision was made. That’s been well over a week ago… I’m no expert but I assume her still being in a boot is not a good sign for her play at this tournament.

She was having trouble with it in pre season as well. I think it’s lingering. Everyone is so worried about the boot but that’s normal now. Even for minor sprains trainers will have them in a boot during any non-practice activity to support the joint.

When playing or practicing it will be taped to the gods.

Sure our offense is great but up to this point our defense has been non-existent. That’s why everyone is hesitant. It’s a 2 way game. Doesn’t matter if you score 92. If your opponent scores 93 it’s still a loss.

Iowa tends to have the same issue. Lots of offense but no defense. Their D looks better this season though.

I don't think it's a joint, I think it's a calf muscle but I could be wrong.

So everything that can be done early is done.
The turkeys are hunkered down in the fridge preparing for our annual wrestling match. Will this be the year a greased bird escapes the roasting pan and hits the floor? The dog lives in hope.
And yet I have a LV question!
Spear and Wells are shown on the roster as seniors. Do we have them next year as a covid year?
Wynn, Puckett and Karo are listed as juniors. Do we have them two more years after this year?

Happy Thanksgiving to all LV fans and our hearty Connie, cluck and other guests!

1.118 million viewers for Indiana! First game of the season to exceed 1 million. Shows that you are still interesting to the public. And, of course, your fanbase still watches.

Good Job Vols.

Right, would just be nice for the ladies to win one when the bright lights are on and everyone is watching.
