Gainey really struggling today

Trying to do too much. He needs to settle down.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Good to see Cade is okay.

 

[RAVOL]

The 16 hardest schedules in college basketball are the 16 SEC teams. That is just a crazy stat.

It is

Gainey really struggling today

And why ?

 

[patrick]

Get Gainey out

Needs to play thru it to learn and grow. Just needs to settle down.

 

[volsarelife1]

Gainey having an absolutely pathetic game

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Didn’t realize till checking KenPom right now that Arkansas is a Top 25 defense. Night and day from the Kentucky defense last year.

There has been several occasions today where it has looked like the ball is either hitting a dead spot on the floor, it's not totally round, it's covered in grease, whatever...we just cannot seem to hang onto it off the dribble.

Arky/Cal have a good team.

That would be incredible.

Gainey is not playing like he has been...glad Phillips is ok. Hate that people are booing Aidoo. He is pitiful.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Need a big run to bury them.

 

[RAVOL]

Official allowing to much hands on the hips of are ball handlers. One guy was palming us and Official was just ok with it.

 

[Vols All Day]

Dubar seems out of place. Not in rhythm with the rest of the team or something. I can't put my finger on it.

He doesn’t seem to have any chemistry with any of his teammates. It’s like he just joined the team in November.

He best when he let's things come to him. He's done a really good job of it this year, too.
I'll give him a bit of a pass this game.

 

[Chaz-Vol]

Offense has been pretty bad today but thankfully hogs at shooting 19% from 3 and vols are 36%. That plus rebounding big difference

 

[wmcovol]

Arky/Cal have a good team.

Best Tyson Chicken can buy.

 

[RAVOL]

Arky/Cal have a good team.

More NBA players than we have

I think some of it has to do with the physicality of Arkansas affecting us. They have been smothering and covering everything on the perimeter making it hard to dribble drive.

 

[Volswin98]

Really???

That’s what the announcers said

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Oklahoma at Alabama. We may be the only team left undefeated after today.

 

[Creeker]

There we go Gainey

 

[ttocswob]

Zig gave Gainey a can't miss..
