The slow pace is intentional...I saw Gainey and Z both turn down obvious scoring opportunities early in the clock.

Perhaps he should take some notes from the Lady Vols head coach. Complete 180 on their offense.

Love Caldwell but that style of ball isn’t suited for the men’s game. We’d give up 100 to everybody playing like that

Yeah we had a couple opportunities to look ahead and score in transition off turnovers and we sat on it. This group needs as many easy scoring opportunities as it can get. Not going to beat many teams shooting 27% from field.

Don’t worry Vol nation, we will warm up in the 2nd half, and our defense will hold them down. We will win comfortably by 12-14 point margin. Go Vols! Beat these pesky Dawgs!

No we wont.... Gotta make a change in pace.. Lack of offensive post presence you can't play 100% half court and depend on outside shooting

We’re down 1, not 11. Real basketball school crowds don’t sit on their hands every time things don’t go 100% perfectly.

Students not on campus as classes don’t start til next week. But I agree our crowd doesn’t get loud until something good happens.

Second half our offense is always better because we play it in front of our bench. Easier to communicate. We’ll get it going m

Boring basketball. We are too easy to guard and strictly a jump shooting team. Few back door cuts to the rim and no post offense. Heck, post up Chaz if he can't get this perimeter shot to fall. Got to get him going. For as aggressive we are defensively, we are a finesse team on offense. Really don't understand it.

Kinda short on the match-ups.

When Chaz 0-7, we gonna struggle.

Need someone to jump into the 'Gainey vs Illinois' shoes

I see High School teams getting more points than the VOLS! Maybe we should be putting jerseys on them and let the HS players play! This is pathetic!

Biggest question besides when will Chaz start hitting those open shots again is will the refs call the second half the same or will it become a whistle fest?

Our crowds are mid even with the students though. I don’t get it. We get jet engine loud in Neyland for UTEP but can’t get up for a ranked game in which a win would bolster our case for a top seed in the dance

If we get scoring from Chaz in the 2nd half. We will win 10pts+. If not it will be a slop fest like the 1st half.

I call it Thompson Boring Arena. It amazes me how everyone always just sits quietly during games. The only real noise is from the sound system.

Not when me and my cronies are there. We are usually up in the nose bleed section but some people in front of us move because we are so loud! They get pissed we are yelling and screaming!

I get our offense has looked clunky, but it should be noted that Georgia is #9 in defensive efficiency. Mike White's teams have always been good defensively. They are no slouch.
