Why's it so hard for stokes to realize that when 2 guys are on him, somebody is WIDE open? It's like he goes stupid and freaks out everytime.

And golden needs to just sit on the bench and stay there.

 

[GBO18]

McBee dear God.

 

[Ace]

I can't believe we are only down by 8.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Mcbee move your sorry ass!!!! He hardly moves ever on offense, then gets trapped forty feet out.

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Most boring basketball team I've ever seen. Plus they're horrible

 

[mtt2d]

Ugly shot but it went it. 25-19 at the half.

 

[Scottyhop]

I was completely on the cuonzo bandwagon, but he is embarrassing himself. McBee playing at all is inexcusable. Leavin McRae on Henderson was a joke. He's been a joke of a coach this year.

 

[fall2hb86]

we get the best possessions at the end of the half, don't we...lol

 

[Plecoptera]

That was a lucky shot. I thought for sure that they were going to come away with 0 points on that possession.

 

[LocoVol]

19 freakin points, lol Less than 1 per minute of play!

 

[Ace]

Down by 6 at half. 25-19. Wow should be down by 20. AL is ugly too

 

[UTCVol]

Golden is awful.

 

[volmaniac5674]

imo Tennessee has 2 major problems. 1. Jarnell Stokes does not make quick decisions when he gets the ball. He holds the ball and waits to get in trouble. 2. We do not have a guard that can feed the post.

If we had guards that could feed the post (Jarnell) and Jarnell made quick decisive moves then we would be much more successful offensively.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

And now we see Bruce.. :'( damn and he called Jordan jordy, he still loves UT.

 

[amazingGRACE]

We're only down six..good lord some of y'all need to step away from the ledge.

 

[Kicker82]

Miracle only to be down six at half..need much more intensity and focus 2nd half to have any chance

 

[rcrrcr]

I can't decide is this team more like:

The O'Neil Error

The Houston Horror

Buzz Ball?

I hope this era of tennessee basketball does not become known as the "Martin Mistake."

 

[GBO18]

We wont shoot that bad in 2nd half right?

 

[GetEmVols]

We need to hire Bruce and his orange tie back to the vols.

 

[Scottyhop]

Why does McBee play? A competent coach would not play him. A competent coach would not preach defense and then leave the worst defender (McBee) in the conference play consistent minutes.

We are home against an average sec team.

 

[allvol123]

Miracle only to be down six at half..need much more intensity and focus 2nd half to have any chance

Why is it a miracle?

 

[Scottyhop]

Did I mention we are 1-4 in a miserable sec.

 

[tnvols72]

Pearl still sporting a orange tie, its a sign lol

 

[Kicker82]

Why does McBee play? A competent coach would not play him. A competent coach would not preach defense and then leave the worst defender (McBee) in the conference play consistent minutes.

Disagree...I thought he played decent defense in the 1st half. His shot is a liability though. McRae is playing terrible at both ends of the court so far today.
