hat, have you ever seen a worse officiated game??? down the stretch, those 3 refs couldn't make a call to save their life. especially the Vandy player sliding almost all the way across the court with no traveling called. the refs are giving Tony Jones no respect at all.

Thanks for the reports as usual. These are especially helpful for those unlucky souls who have to work during the game.

Unfortunatey, I am one of them. I had to watch a stream of the game, which was like watching a slide show.

He complains too much to get much respect.

They didn't call that because their only real option was to call the trip that put him on the floor. I didn't mind them letting that just play itself out.

Without him we lose for sure. His toughness inside and rebounding was great. He also had a great spin move from the high post that I've never seen him use before.

But why does his effort so obviously fluctuate from time to time and game to game? When he plays like he did towards the end, it just pisses me off that he doesn't more often.

What row are you in hat? I was also in 103 today.
Now on to the game...
We came out with quite a few set plays for the second half and it got us shots early in the shot clock without rushing it too much.
We also ran baseline cutters more than I can remember in recent history.
Either Jones or Stallings needs to sit down and shut up. Their bickering throughout the game is better than General Hospital.
I will finally applaud Mcbee for not being scared to shoot.
Both Cam and Scotty made good decisions on drives and jumpshots.
The refs were questionable at best, and I think this game proves limiting our rotation is hugely beneficial. Keep the starters out there.

It ended up playing out OK for Tennessee, but you have to call that. If you don't see, or decide not to call, the bump... then you cannot pretend you didn't see the Vandy player playing slip'n'slide all the way across the lane. It just makes you look ridiculous.

That was a beautiful finish. I also love the fact that I turned on PBS right after the game to see what was going on with the inauguaration and the Pride was marching the streets of Nashville playing "Rocky Top" while Haslam was clapping. I bet the three Vandy fans in Nashville loved hearing that sound after the game.

I had 3 rows of obnoxious Vandy students sitting right behind me. Yes, I was sitting that high up. I am really glad we won.

This team's focus should be:
1) playing defense like their lives depend upon it
2) Harris is option #1, Hopson #2, Tatum #3 (unless he misse his first 3-4 shots)
3) Hopson is option #1 if he looks like he realizes what he can do
4) everyone else gets whatever shots they can

I think Hopson is one of those guys whose productivity will increase the more you let him feel things out. He has always seemed afraid of screwing up, then gets down when he does. He'll play you out of some games, then win a few for you. It's very frustrating to see this 9/10 talent play like a 6.5/10 because of his grey matter.

All they have to is finish at .500 in the SEC to make the field. That shouldn't be that tough.

wouldn't that put TN @ 18-13 (w/ uconn L)?

I don't know that they get in at that record, even with this schedule.

I think TN needs to be at least 9-7 to be sure.

If we can beat UGA at their place (not impossible) we might be back on the right track.

I do know this though. I don't want to draw Tennessee in the tourney if they are knocking down their 3's.

18-13 will not get us in, unless we win 2 games in the sec tournament. we have to finish at least 19-12 and win the opening round game in the sec tour. in other words 20 wins !!!

Two wrongs don't make a right. Maybe or maybe not he tripped but he sure as heck fell and slid acoss the lane for a walk. That is a must call if you are getting paid to ref a D1 level game..

Dad is that you? My father said the same thing. He said wow I have never seen that type of move from Brian.

You'd think that rich kids could afford better seats.

One cutie hada skin tight gold mini skirt hugging her nice frame above wear my season tickets are in 314. I must say I enjoyed her coming to visit TBA. As for all the doctors sons that are current students they can get lost. One douche was in gold pom poms in nose bleed on opposite side of arena. He looked as goofy as the guy who leads our student section.

Not sure what was being said between Kevin Stallings and Tony Jones at the 2 minute mark, but I'm sure it wasn't pleasant. It appeared like it was closing in on go time for those two.
Stallings said "nice coat, do you know were I can get one".
