Give him the basket on goaltend then take it away later.

 

[SlyStone]

Geez... let me flip to the Suns v Warriors. This is a travesty.

 

[ttocswob]

It's bad, but it ain't over,,,

 

[chuckb1448]

I've based my day around this, so my day sucks lol

 

[BreatheUT]

Awaka just got postered!!!

Sadly. This will be on ESPN top 10. Where is the fight?

 

[IndianapolisVol]

I’ve seen crazier things, fellas. 8 minutes left. We can do this!

 

[GBO18]

I mean its a great dunk, but Awake pretty obviously got held before and Carter clearly earned a tech after hanging on the rim

Yea that is something they never call. Happens a lot when guards drive down the lane and the post clears out. Should be a moving screen.

 

[87&91ALUM]

47-64….time out. Did not look like goal tending to me.

 

[AppStVol]

Awaka just got absolutely posterized

He got held by 10

 

[AthensVol2007]

Moving screen much.

 

[Redleg68]

Whoopee he ran for a bunch of yards against Class 1A HS teams who were probably all white.

You are definitely in a Sophomore slump information wise.

Props to Awaka for playing defense on that dunk. Would’ve been easy to give them the basket and move on in this blowout.

Get it under 10pts. Moral dub.

 

[SlyStone]

Need to run a hell of a lot of suicides when they get back to Knoxville.

That's not gonna help this team.

I'd be happy with them re-emphasizing calling that kind of thing and letting go more of the hand check type stuff

 

[Just a VolinTears]

Awaka, Zeigler, Mashack the only ones giving effort tonight. Props to them

 

[AppStVol]

Why it’s baffling he didn’t play this entire half, he and Z are the only ones who don’t pout and take plays off

 

[Pennheel]

This game is understandable as to why fans are so frustrated and venting. I can understand a close hard fought loss,but being physically outmatched on both ends of the ball the whole game? That's rough.... I don't think it will happen again, but it shouldn't to begin with.

You just need to let this be a reminder of what happens when you don't play to your ability.

 

[GBO18]

The Troy Fleming talk is random. Dude was a below average SEC player.

 

[Switch 625]

No team has gone undefeated since Indiana in 75-76; how is one game indicative of why UT can’t make a Final Four?

What are you talking about being undefeated? No one said that. UT has never been to a Final Four and I don’t think Barnes will ever get us there.

 

[NOLAPhil]

Moving screens, body checks, flops, no effort, bad shots, phantom fouls, whistles on comeback attempts, big loud crowd. A lot to over come.

 

[The Tall Gguy]

Posterized

 

[Butch s]

What would Troy Fleming know about what it takes to win a championship? He never sniffed one.

What have you won little man. Maybe madden 2014

It’s more about drive by whining. I’m not gonna go to the baseball forum and whine about our team playing bad. I’m going to enjoy the ride and cheer them on to victory, while not disparaging them when they play poorly - a lot of it is also bc I will admit I’m not the sharpest baseball mind.


the whole thing that annoyed me about this, is we have people coming in here whining every year and saying “baseball season is around the corner” when they didn’t care about baseball 5 years ago. These same people will be hating on the baseball team as soon as we hit a slump again. You just can’t make some people happy.

If it makes you feel better, one of the prime instigators was all over the baseball forum last season saying the team had fully quit and just wanted to get it all over with, at least he said that up until we turned it around and went to the CWS, then it was radio silence.
