1. Tennessee is now officially the Denver Nuggets of college basketball. They are a bunch of headcases and halfassers who only show up ready to play when it fits their personal agendas.
2. The final possession looked like five year olds at recess. It was an utter disaster.
3. This team's ballhandling is an affront to the game. Scotty Hopson's inability to simply dribble the ball is disgraceful.
4. NBA scouts had to love seeing Marshawn Powell use Tobias Harris as a turnstile. If a decent SEC player spins you like a top, just imagine what guys in the league can do.
5. Joe Dean had the worst day ever for an analyst. You should at least pretend to have done some prep work.
6. Brian Williams is a cancer. The only thing worse than his constant whining is his offensive game.
7. I can't believe coaches continue to allow Williams to crush their point guards with blind picks. Sooner or later, someone is going to man up and instruct their center to use an elbow to turn Big Bumbler's nose to dust.
8. Colorado is starting to click. That what happens when a new coach finally figures out it's time to unleash the two future pros in his backcourt.
9. Georgetown is in the middle of their annual regular season vacation. They are almost as flighty as Tennessee.
10. There is a silver lining. WIns like this may delude Arkansas into retaining Pelphrey.

Number 1 is spot on. I left work early to watch these guys, as a team, give about 49.33 % of what this team is capable of? I won't make that mistake again. I'm still trying to decide whether or not to use my Florida tickets.

Hat's post game rippings make me feel better in some twisted way.

I'm trying to figure out why Tobias is the only rebounder that seems to show up game after game (not to mention his scoring). I only hope we recover in time and pounce the Gators next week.

Never thought of it like that, but yeah I agree.

Tatum and Williams both should be benched. Josh Bone has worked on his shot and has been a surprise on offense since his return. Hopefully it will warrant more playing time. At least he gets the team concept.

1. Tell Williams to go back to the Bronx.....or don't inform him of his next drug test and let that take care of itself.

2. Scotty Hopson is bound and determined to not let Vincent Yarbrough have the title of "most overrated player to ever wear orange" without a fight.

3. Disappointed in Tatum.

4. Why, why, why did we start playing Pearl with 7 minutes to go?

5. What does McRae have to do to get in the sacred rotation? There is no way he's more of a liability than McBee.

6. Tony Jones - if that is the best you can do as a coach, at least wear the purple suit on the sideline so you will look good.

So what do we do as fans? I had more important stuff to do but decided to hold it off to watch the game. I'm sick of putting off stuff to watch these guys play and they only give a minimal effort. Any signs you recognize from pressers, week of practice, etc. that gives you a sign that they're actually going to give an effort?

Anyone else notice how Williams' play has gone completely off the cliff since he spent the Christmas holiday hanging out with his pal Josh Tabb? Coincidence?

Look at the current AP poll. If the upcoming opponent is in it, chances are UT is going to play hard. If not, your guess is as good as mine.

I'm beginning to wonder if that even matters. Even before Villanova and Pitt, Tennessee wasn't really impressive. The UTC game wasn't great, but it was an opener. Tennessee squandered a huge lead late against Belmont the first time around and barely held on. Missouri State and VCU have been average at best compared to what most thought. Tennessee just so happened to hit everything against Pitt and Memphis was terribly overrated anyway with a young team going into its first tough environment.

Just got a text from a friend who scouts for a Western Conference NBA team. "Why did it take someone this long to isolate Harris defensively? Should do the same to Hopson."

Williams is our leading rebounder and Tatum is often times our third or fourth best offensive threat, so No.

Well when they stop taking retarded shots and start acting like they give a damn, they can play again. The team sucks, might as well get the young ones some experience and play the guys that want to play

Williams has really been owning the glass against the decent bigs down low. As for Tatum, what has he done since Thanksgiving that warrants playing time. He looks lost for some reason.

1. why the hell did Scotty Hopson not move or even try to get open or go the ball on the last shot.
2. why the hell was s. pearl in the game when we were down and needed a scorer. I am not down on the kid but he has his limitaions. He can't score.
