The Official #6 [2] Tennessee vs. #3 [1] Purdue Game Thread, 2:20 PM ET, ESPN

[Franklin_Vol09]

Pretty sure he has a medical anomaly that enabled him to grow that tall as his parent's genetics do not reflect his stature. If true, odds are he will die an early death. Just saying ...

We call him Dr Marfan.

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

Honestly I think Aidoo is injured or something going on with him.

Nope. He just can't play actual bigs. Too soft and shoots like a TRex. Hope VOLS upgrade at C

 

[VolsRule]

Seriously, if Bama and Purdue met in the finals, who do you cheer for?

I wouldn’t watch

Purdue- can’t deal with Alabama winning anything

 

[D3Athlete]

In the two match ups against Purdue.
Purdue took 81 free throws
Tennessee took 41 free throws

 

[GBO18]

Only DK showed up. That’s it. Everyone else just stood around most of the game. You aren’t as smart as you think you are.

Go read your original post and tell me what it said.

 

[GoVols9800]

UT basketball will never win a championship much less make it to a Final Four. This was our best shot ever and still couldn't pull it off

Then stop watching. No reason to if you have no hope. Or at least stop bringing your negativity in here.

 

[unfrozencvmanvol]

Good season. UConn will murder this Purdue team and anyone else.

 

[Vol737]

FTs are 11-31

That’s a huge problem.

 

[molsen81]

They will eventually, not sure Coach Barnes will be the HC.

If it doesn’t happen with Barnes, then it won’t happen. A top coach ain’t coming here.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Alabama is in the final four, I could puke my guts out!

We would be too if we got Clemson.

 

[BreatheUT]

We had chances to take the lead but guys did not step up.

 

[volplaya8]

Yeah, you’re insane. This is arguably our best team in history. Eventually we’ll be in the Final Four. Just not this time.

It’s at best our 4th-5th team…but sure man…lol…Daltons don’t just walk through the door….supporting cast was overall pretty bad when it mattered most

 

[utvolpj]

Pretty sure the ref wrote a formal apology letter immediately after the game for that one as well.

He won't be calling the FF for sure

 

[casetopia]

that was a tough draw getting purdue. I was hoping someone would take them out before we got there. but they didnt.

 

[Steelcurtain]

Win lose or draw I'm still all Vol. This one stings cause I feel like the winner of this one will be in the championship game. Gotta build on it it and move on. Time for some BaseVols now till fall rolls around.

 

[volplaya8]

Yeah, you’re insane. This is arguably our best team in history. Eventually we’ll be in the Final Four. Just not this time.

Glad you are positive….Im over in baseball being positive there…go Vols!

Seriously, if Bama and Purdue met in the finals, who do you cheer for?

I wouldn’t watch

Grant Nelson and Bama's defense against Edey would be miserable to watch

 

[hardyemt_p]

In first "FAHR BARNES". Need more DK on this team to get a championship

 

[deezvols]

All three refs cheated us. Yeah, that's it. We weren't outplayed.

LOL

Give 1 example of how we were outplayed…

 

[Cartervol]

Edey was a factor. He was unstoppable when the refs decided to make him the x-factor..

 

[molsen81]

Does Knecht get POY?

 

[vol4eva]

UConn will slaughter Purdue.

Man I don’t know, not the way the refs are handling the ogre.

 

[YankeeVol]

Sad that will be the last we see of Knecht. Thank you for a great season

Proud of this team. Arguably the greatest Tennessee basketball team in history. Just unlucky today. Thank you vols

Well I guess all us vol fans have to look forward to is a top 5 baseball team and then a generational talent at quarterback in the fall.

Agree with the 1st part.

Nooooot so much with the 2nd.

 

[Volatile68]

Cold spells hurt, but you completely change the game when you can’t guard the guy at all that’s scoring for Purdue. Not to mention, when he never gets called for walks, travels, or any foul whatsoever.

Don't forget repeated 3 seconds violations

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

Impressed with Estrella....he's gonna be a player.
