Win by 40 or bust

Gonna be a bust

I just don’t see it with Dillione

Small sample size and he’s just getting back to game speed. He’s got the tools and talent, just needs some development and he’s only going to get a lot of that in game situations.

 

[ttocswob]

Phillips in - almost everybody gets minutes.

Hopefully. Just hope he remains patient and doesn’t transfer. You’ve always got to be weary of that with highly ranked guys not seeing the floor a ton.

 

[Vols All Day]

Gainey is ice cold from three.

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Hopefully. Just hope he remains patient and doesn’t transfer. You’ve always got to be weary of that with highly ranked guys not seeing the floor a ton.

That’s very true. I think he sticks around, given some of the roster turnover we are going to have.

 

[OrangeInKy]

I’ve seen enough of Gainey tonight

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Schwartz has ECU on the verge of an upset at FAU. ESPN2

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Put in Carr, Coach!

I agree. Hope I’m wrong but I’m not sure he can handle Barnes and his hard coaching. Someone needs to have Jordan Bone talk with him. Lol.

Dillione 1st basket midrange jumper

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Agreed. Tons of minutes opening up this off-season. Which is why I hope Jefferson stays, too. Grass ain’t always greener.

 

[GBO18]

Hopefully Gainey turns it on come conference play but he starting to remind me of Key 2.0. Dude gets good looks but can’t make anything consistently.

That dude can game plan

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Gainey 0-5 tonight from deep. I keep being told he is just a streaky shooter and you have to let him shoot, but is he ever going to be streaky the other way????

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

I agree. Hope I’m wrong but I’m not sure he can handle Barnes and his hard coaching. Someone needs to have Jordan Bone talk with him. Lol.

Apparently he and Gainey have a good relationship with Bowden (along with several of the young guys). Bowden knows what it means to take hard coaching and develop, so I think he’s in good hands.

 

[OrangeInKy]

I keep telling you all Gainey out here point shaving

The alleged point-shaving incident? Think again. that thing happened.

That dude can game plan

I’d be happy with either him or English next

Is this version of the Vols fun to watch in person? None of the freshmen look like they will make an impact this year.

 

[Chaz-Vol]

Agreed. Tons of minutes opening up this off-season. Which is why I hope Jefferson stays, too. Grass ain’t always greener.

Dilione totally agree and hope he stays and keeps developing because he has natural shot and decent ball handler. Jefferson I just don't see a path for him to get minutes for another couple of years. Carr already passed him.

I hope he’s in the gym getting up shots daily. He gets so many open looks. I’m beginning to think he’s open for a reason.

I’ve talked about taking the kids to every home game then when I’m watching all I think is how glad I am I didn’t pay money to drive out there and watch it, but this one looks like a little more fun than some others this season

Jordan Bone! There’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. Bone and Kennedyvchandler both left too early….

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Carr, Dillione, Phillips, Awaka, Mashack

 

[ttocswob]

Dillione steal and a slam!
