Love the body control from Green! Sheppard flopped thinking Keyen wasn’t going to be able to control her momentum. You could see Keyen look at her after the shot like, “what are you doing down there girl!?”

Beautiful pass and catch for the lay in!

Yep, and had BK led Green just a tad more, the defender would have probably gotten that call. Was an excellent play on both ends.

I noticed that the LV conference opener against a good Bama team is on 12/30 at 6:30. UT football is playing their bowl game at 3:00 that day. Given how the bloated bowl games often last near 4 hours, I hope that UT changes the LV game to 730. That way, fans can enjoy the bowl game on tv and then support the LV. This team deserves a big supportive crowd for their conference opener. Changing the time shouldn't be hard given it is not on a network other than the streaming SEC+.

I’m driving in from St. Louis for this game!

Former Lady Vol

Statement from associate head coach Tasha Butts:
“In November, I was diagnosed with an advanced stage of breast cancer. While I am still processing this life-changing diagnosis and learning how to deal with it day-to-day, I have full confidence in my team of doctors with the treatment plan they have put forth and that I have already begun. The tremendous amount of support I have received from my family, close friends, and Georgia Tech family has made these past few weeks a little more bearable and easier.
“This has not been an easy discovery. At age 39, I never thought I’d be sitting here dealing with this disease. But I have full confidence in my doctors, my faith, who I am and who I was taught to be, which is a fighter. I want to, and hope to be, an example and an inspiration for others who may be experiencing the same thing.
“Through my process, I have learned that early detection is the best possible approach. I strongly encourage everyone to be fully aware of any symptoms or red flags they may experience, and go see a doctor. Early detection can offer someone a piece of mind in such a life-changing event.
“This is a life-changing experience for me and the No. 1 priority for me right now is to take care of myself through treatment and surround myself with people that will take care of me to the same degree. I have an incredible support system at Georgia Tech that I am grateful for. While undergoing treatment, I will still be here at Georgia Tech and in full support of our program as I can be. I am blessed to be surrounded by a Georgia Tech community that fully supports me and I am grateful to have them on this journey.”
Statement from head coach Nell Fortner:
“We were all shocked with Tasha’s diagnosis, but the positive is she is in a fantastic city with doctors extremely qualified to treat her. Tasha has been instrumental in our success over these past two and a half seasons. She is surrounded by a Georgia Tech community that will support her and a team that will love her through this. Tasha is a strong woman who has every intention of beating this diagnosis, and we will be with her every step of the way.”
Statement from Georgia Tech athletics:
“Tasha has the full support of the Georgia Tech athletics family. She’s an inspiration to our student-athletes, coaches and staff, and we are 100% behind her in this fight. She will remain in her position as Georgia Tech women’s basketball associate head coach while undergoing treatment. In the intermittent times during the treatment process that she is unable to be with the team, women’s basketball chief of staff Mickie DeMoss will assume duties as an assistant coach.”

So glad she has Nell and Mickie there with her too. Fight on TB, there are lots of folks who need you!

Sometimes I think Pat has a lotta pull in heaven.

Candace got to win a championship in her hometown.

Kellie is leading the Lady Vols back to basketball.

And Geno still hasn’t won a championship since the CP3 curse Pat hexed him with when he left Candace of the Olympic team.

I know, right? I thought they'd be cooked once Rae went down. They've really stepped it up across the board.

Most surprising to me is LVs are able to step up bc virtually everyone is improving as we go. Some big probs still, and they are worryingly the same ones we always have - t.o.s and shooting %. But everyone is at least is some better. We haven't seen that in the LVs for a long, long time so didn't count on it when Rae went down.

I think that Tennessee's new pieces...at least Miles, Puckett and Dye...are integrating faster into their team structure compared to what other teams are seeing. It helps that they were forced into duty, which accelerated the onboarding process. They didn't have the luxury of a team like SC or NCST that could rely on their core players from last season, and then bring in the newcomers slowly.
