Clanks & Swats... geez

 

[Doctrippin]

Aidoo is horrible in this game

Really thought he found his groove after GA Southern

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Absolutely pathetic

 

[PEPPERJAX]

I’m glad my tickets were free tonight.

 

[IndianapolisVol]

Vols ever going to cover the spread against a mid-major?

 

[87&91ALUM]

Tarleton kicking our but second half.

Boys are ready to go home for the holidays.

I am very glad I do not have to watch basketball for 12 days!!! Merry Christmas!

 

[theroyz71]

Worst shooting team in the NCAA

 

[zaqhhh]

We are losing a lot of the hustle plays

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

Need to shoot more 3s. Has Aidoo been in at all this half?

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Besides shots, what is this team missing?

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Aidoo must still be sick or something. This was a game where he should have be dominant.

Getting good looks, just missing.

He struggles with physicality.

 

[Caz]

Just an uncanny way of playing down to the competition. We just can’t have these lapses over and over again and expect good things

 

[volmoon]

5 points in the first 8:30 of 2nd. PITIFUL

 

[87&91ALUM]

I’m impressed with Tarleton. They are getting a pass by refs but, they are playing with intensity and we are not. Cmon Vols!

 

[tnvols72]

As of today, this Tn team is not very good. We have no consistent shooters. Tn has scored what 4 points this half? at one point they were 1/13 this half.

We've seen this before with some guys no longer on the roster. I'm at the point that Aidoo is possessed by the spirit of ON. Just never know what kind of game he'll decide to give.

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Love the commercials for Scheels. Closest location to Knoxville is Springfield Illinois

 

[walkenvol]

Welp, we’re losing the second half 10-5. Good thing they’re 1for 12 from 3’s

 

[JoeMiltonsAgent]

Having to half watch on my phone, why is Knecht still behind the other starters in minutes?

He's been pretty cold last three games including 2/6 so far tonight.

 

[volmoon]

So ugly

 

[BreatheUT]

Watching this score it seems this team has a lot of work ahead of them. Count me as not sold they will be a top team to end the year. I think we needed another scoring forward and I'm not not impressed with the post play on this team at all. A sign of underwhelming post play is do the guys dominate an outmanned opponent. The answer would be an empathic NO! I had more hope Awaka would become the little big man at 6'8" because of his rebounding ability. He doesn't seem to get shots.

And that's something I thought we'd not see this year. Still early but with the way we're playing, I can't see us getting past the sweet 16....and that assumes favorable match ups and no injuries.
