Dude if you think Plav is a player then you don’t know squat about bball. He had a cpl decent games but he isn’t even an average player in the SEC.

He is a stiff. He was a stiff at his former team. Only reason he sees the floor is because we have two freshmen bigs on our team who are supposed to be seniors in high school.

I didn’t say Uros is a stud. I said he didn’t cost us this game. Quit trying to beat on one guy. The whole team sucked ass. Coaching sucked ass. Officiating sucked ass...

All I know is this - Jaylin Williams being given special treatment to receive offensive foul calls is an embarrassment to the sport and to the SEC. They KNOW he hunts offensive fouls and they reward him for his behavior.

"All $EC Dupe the Ref" POY is between Williams & Pippin Jr,
Will Wade is the Coach

I don't know what makes me sadder - Tennessee getting punked by the officials, or Dane acting like everything on the court was fine today.

A win today and there was a clear path to the SEC regular season title. It's getting old that we can't win when things are on the line.

Well, we had been playing better overall but the last 2 times we’ve played tournament-quality teams away from TBA we looked like crap and lost. I wouldn’t bet on the Vols making the second weekend in March. We just don’t play smart enough and don’t shoot well enough but I really hope I’m wrong. I was starting to think we had finally turned the corner and that the Texas game was an aberration but it doesn’t appear that it was. Oh well. I’ll lower expectations and hope to be surprised. Go Vols.

Eh BHH isn’t good either. Honestly don’t need Uros or BHH to have many minutes.
4- JJJ (20) Fulk (15) BHH (5)
5- Fulk (15) Aidoo (20) Uros (5)

He has issues for sure but at least he has more upside and may improve with experience. Uros is what he is.

Such pathetic coaching lineups , shooting, and referring.

The only lineup question I have is playing Uros over Aidoo now. I’m giving Aidoo more minutes for sure. That and Powell is a liability until he can find his ****. Other than that, I don’t think Barnes had much choice on the lineups when his top 3 scorers are in foul trouble.

Neutral court --- I think we stand a good chance against any one. I think Gonzaga's bigs would be trouble for us. I think we would take most anyone else. It is about matchups, and on a neutral court I think we match up well and have the experience to go deep in the tourney.

Refs didn’t cost us the game. Rarely do. Missed calls and bad calls occur during each game of every sporting event. Now refs can neutralize a game if they blow the whistle for every hand check, touch foul, etc. Or the opposite, if they swallow their whistles and allow big teams who are physical to bang inside,etc without calling a foul.

TN lost this game! We could not shoot the ball. Our guard play was suspect and nobody could take control in the post, hence 48 points in one game. The Hogs didn’t shoot well which is concerning but we will bounce back, No other choice!

LOL! Are you serious?!? We couldn't shoot because our guys were tentative and playing in foul trouble. We were throwing makeshift lineups out there and couldn't create a flowing offense in the 2nd half because of it. No rim penetration due to refs calling too many fouls on our guards. Therefore arky could also cheat put on the perimeter abd we had to force bad 3 point shots.

Being so positively reinforced by the refs that you have the confidence to slide in front of a player that is already in the air, and STILL GET THE CALL is crazy.

That's not even playing basketball, that is playing a game that the refs are making up on the spot.

How many charge calls did side show Bob get today? I know it was 5 or more, he should be cut off the rest of the season. Totally ironic that you can draw a player control foul when you’re the ******* with the dangerous play of indercutting a player in the air. College bball officiating is completely broken. I’m with Bilas one this

Their quickness gave our guards fits and may again in TBA. Our guards are used to being able to find space easily but not against this team. I think we win the next one against them especially if we get a better whistle but it's far from a given.

We had to basically win out with 5 games left. Not sure that’s really “on the line.”

I don't care if we had to win out with 20 games left, there was a light and we shut it out before it even got interesting. Typical
