The problem with this team. . .

[cbrown]

is that they have all the things that you would think would make good basketball players, but only one or two of them can actually play basketball. Williams looks like a guy who never played high school basketball. One game they play defense but can't shoot. One game they shoot OK but play no defense (like today). They make several plays per game that make you wonder if they have some kind of chromosome issue (Prince's offensive foul, Williams' intentional). I alos question Bruce trying to sit on a 4 point lead with 3 minutes to play. This is a mediocre team that is fortunate to have won as many as it's won.

...they've lost to too many schools with Tigers for mascots. Not doing well against Bulldogs either, with 2 more Bulldog games to go. This could get ugly.

This team has many faults. It is not difficult trying to find them. On the other hand, there is a ton of potential there that up to this point is unrealized. This team could turn it around and start playing good ball at any time. I am not sure it will happen this year, but it could.

The thing that is so frustrating about this team is even if they played just a little better we would have had 3 or 4 more victories this year.

Thats all folks. No NCAA this year, no way this team has the heart to win the SEC tourney, and in the last 9 games, I say they go 4-5 at best. What an awful year, after an awful football season. I have to read stories of Andrew Jackson and the TN Volunteer Army, to get me through days like this, and remind me why I love to live in Tennessee

As I said early this season this team has the potential to beat anybody or be beaten by anybody...

Tyler Smith is the worst defender on the team. He always loses his man.

I'm not sure there can be a worst defender when the defense is consistently this bad. It takes a team effort to play no defense at all.

He did play TERRIBLE defense today. Absolutely terrible. But, overall he is not even close to the worst defender on the team.

I wouldn't care if negadu took all of williams minutes.

Right now I question the heart or lack thereof of the entire team

It's frustrating to go from a team last year that fed off of their defense to a team that seems to not even know what defense is

I wouldn't care if Negedu was the only one on the defensive end. Well thats a little extreme but he does more by just playing hard than the talented players do.
