Was a alright season
Won some big ones
Lost a lot more to lower teams
Just alright

Good points. My concern is we continue to make silly turnovers, commit too many fouls and can’t make foul shots. Barnes has said the that he doesn’t understand why this team commits so many fouls and turnovers. He loves this team, but I think he is frustrated we still commit the same mistakes.

Those a few recipe for disaster in March for a team wanting to advance.

You ain't wrong

Of all the signs the late season collapse at the FT line might be the most telling why this team won't advance far. You normally don't fix that in season. Even Vescovi is going through a tough spell. It even cost us some games.

You also ain't wrong

That is so bad. Aidoo and ON are soft. Uros is just a big guy that can cause havic but not much more.

I wouldn’t let Uros see the floor unless we play against a team with no size. Uros has only one post move - defend it & he rarely scores. He can’t make foul shots and commits silly fouls. The foul late in the first half gave Auburn the opportunity to score before the buzzer.
He is too slow which prevents him from gaining position to grab offensive boards. For a 7’1 guy, he rarely blocks shots. He is a good teammate and loves TN, but he had more downside than up.

Lordy this team can beat anyone and lose to anyone. Tough loss today for sure.
Hopefully they can turn it on in the NCAA.
It ain't over till it's over.

This game was given to Auburn, another team in the Tournament... More Money

Good thing all the stupids are on VolNation and not out driving

I am glad you have insults to support your vast basketball knowledge....you are the hero Volnation needs though not the one it wants.....

They played kinda sloppy today. And looked tired. They were not as energetic as Auburn for sure.

Here's the facts about this team. We have a bunch of role players. Not one alpha that can take over every signal game. Some guys can show out in a game or two. This team has no shot creator and post game is soft. There's no aggressive big man that is going to back someone up and get you a dunk. At this point, it would be shocking to see this team make a sweet 16

Tennessee is a inconsistent good team, not amazing players

Next season will be different. We actually have offensive talent coming in and I'm very thankful for that. Barnes is going to need to get u ls a pg transfer in the portal and an assistant coach that knows how to run an offense
