The Official #19 Tennessee vs. Kentucky Game Thread, 1:00 PM ET, CBS

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

Having ORN and Gaines on the floor at the same time is a questionable move

 

[tnvols72]

Gaines playing. Yuck. Must mean no JJJ today.

kid hustles just cant shoot

 

[vols 30]

Gaines can't shoot. Terrible finish.

Nothing has changed since the day he arrived. If he can't draw charges, he brings nothing

How about stupid

 

[Vol49er]

This team going to blown out today, horrible court awareness on fast break

How quickly we forget how the last two Kentucky games played out

 

[BreatheUT]

We better hope JJJ can play because Nkamhoua and Gaines are offensive liabilities and don't offer a lot in the form of defensive rebounding. Gaines might be better rebounding as a guard than Nkamhoua is as a forward.

 

[Matt2496]

We'd better wake up soon or this could get real ugly.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Lot of ball left in this game. But it sure would be nice if for once this season we could string together two good performances back to back. Slaughtered UGA and playing sloppy basketball early. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, inconsistency has been the theme of the entire season.

 

[GBO18]

Springer and Johnson need to wake up.

 

[Teeboy]

How can this KY team have a losing record? Dang...talent everywhere.....big, tall talent.....

 

[1985Vols]

Barnes just sits on timeouts

But, but, he’s a “ great” coach and owns KY??

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Not well coached???

 

[VolFreakJosh]

But, but, he’s a “ great” coach and owns KY??

And there it is

 

[Vol49er]

Correct

 

[BreatheUT]

Nothing has changed since the day he arrived. If he can't draw charges, he brings nothing

Handles are a little suspect as well because he tall and lanky but not strong with the ball.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

But, but, he’s a “ great” coach and owns KY??

He is great. But gotta use a TO during that run

 

[LucidZ]

Gaines hasn't really played that much, not sure what people expect from that. His longest game was 10 mins. Not much experience really.

Yeah but it still doesn't excuse how this team goes so up and down. It's almost the end of the season and they're in the same pattern.

 

[1985Vols]

Its 4 on 5 every single minute gaines is on the floor

Another recruiting fail by Barnes. How many players do we have on the bench that are not worth anything more than practice players ?

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Okay so we are down.

Can we come back? Can we not give up like every other time we are down?

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I think there is a reason he hasn't played much.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Stop this. It’s really early. And Barnes IS a great coach and he does own UK. You can’t win them all. If we were to win today against UK that would be 5 of the last 6.

All Ky needs is some confidence, they are an uber talented team that is gelling at the right time of the season. This game is not an easy win whatsoever for the Vols, in fact this Vols team is due for another blowout loss

 

[Teeboy]

WTF are we doing? This is why this team is so frustrating, they go right back to the terrible play.

It's early...they may lose, but it's early. THis KY team is much better and talented than their record.....period

 

[vols 30]

Shocked - we gave up an easy inbounds basket
