Holly Warlick will not survive this season barring a miraculous turnaround. She lost a lot of support last year from the higher ups but was given the chance to turn it around. She has not and they have gotten worse. She is a very nice lady but she is not a head coach at least at a place like UT

CHW will not be fired even she does not win another game. She was not hired as HC because of the possibility of her becoming a good coach. She was hired as HC for being a loyal assistant to Pat for 25+ years. That fact has not changed. Winning or losing has nothing to do with her status as HC. I know this is a sarcasm. However, we LV fans must accept the truth no matter how harsh is is.

I've been reading this site for years. I just haven't posted here. But I just finally had enough, I guess. Every day, I see folks saying the most negative things using incorrect information to support it.

At least your Alpha theory was a little different and entertaining. "spouting off"... lol

Please give us all the correct information so we know what the hello you are saying. We just fans you know!

Middleton will have her playing time cut in half with the new class coming in Jackson ?

I would hope more than cut in half!! But she at least can hit a 3 point shot on occasion where Jordan cannot even hit a layup. At least she missed the very first shot last night that was a layup.. I never said middleton or Jackson were the next CP3s.:clapping:

CJ, pretty sure it's an established poster using a "new" handle.

If you can't find a Holly supporter, just create one :p

You guys could use some of your time culling the misinformation & half-truths unchecked negative posters are allowed. But you don't...maybe because it fuels your agenda, I don't know.

Not trying to piss people off...just trying to be a voice of reason and balance.

And, most probably, valid!

Why is the LVs discussion always centered around Holly and her complete lack of a clue towards coaching? How many more years will be have to hear and see this play out? When does the AD of a stellar program as UT once was, decide it's time for a change? It will take over 5 years to rebuild UT once a good or even great coach is found. In fact, it may never come back now due to how much it has fallen. What player would want to come to this now? None.

We stink.

No 1 recruiting class

Jordan Reynolds played 34 minutes against Texas and only 2 pts I think Holly and her staff should be held accountable for Reynolds horrendous play on the offensive, to me it`s gotten worse.

Holly has the option of putting Diamond at the point and letting Dunbar and Middleton play at the two. She would still have to play Reynolds ten to 12 minutes at the point but I think we'll get better offense if we cut her minutes and use Dunbar more. I see no difference in her defense and Dunbrs neither are very good defensively.

WHAT?! We just signed the #1 recruiting class in the country! I just wish that if folks are going to slam the coach, the players, or the program, that they would at least know the basics. Or is this just a forum for negavols to pile on because that's the easy thing to do online these days?

It's sad what Holly will do with a number 1 class, you better pray she don't get her hands on them...

I think getting back on Defense would suffer greatly with that lineup but it sucks anyway so what the heck? We need to play people who can score and wants to score. my $0.02

Exactly and at least we know Dunbar is going to look to score which will free up a lot of opportunities for everyone else. When Dunbar is hot, she's a killer from 3 and teams would have to account for her. Not playing her (unless she is still critically injured) is a horrible decision imo. We need all the points we can get and Reynolds (majority of the time) refuses to give us any.

If anyone watched the Pat Summitt memorial ceremony than they got to see what it means to be a Lady Vol.... Holly is everything a Lady Vol should be and she deserves more support than what our fan base gives her. I hate to see us struggle and Holly hates to see it as well.... Recruiting the last couple of seasons had slacked both in numbers and in the type of player we been to reach our ultimate goal of being champions. Holly identified the problem and made the changes necessary to bring us the number one class in the country and an excellent start to the 2018 class.

This years team was bound to struggle bc we only have 7-8 players and really only 3 that have shown they can play at an SEC level.... it feels like we are playing 3 on 5 most games.... it is definitely Holly's fault but she made the changes necessary to fix the roster issue. I think she deserves a couple more seasons to be able to coach the new class to see what she can do..... people keep bringing up fulmer but they forget that the season before he was fired was better than any season we have had since. Also the comment about Geno being able to coach anybody up then why was he 18-11 in year 9 at UCONN.... Go Lady Vols!!!!

You really had to go back to Geno's 9th year to pull that stat out?

She never should have been given the job in the first place. When Pat left it was the perfect time to bring in new blood and revive the program, now we have a coach who has no clue what she's doing and refuses to take any responsibility for this teams lackluster play. Hopefully she hasn't suckered anyone into thinking she'll do anything with a high ranked recruiting class and she'll be out sooner rather than later.

In hindsight, you're correct. However at the time I thought she had earned the right to be given the opportunity. Most I talked to at the time seemed to agree. We now see the job is just too big for her. Some coaches are just better at being 2nd in command. Nothing wrong with it.

Folks keep saying Pat hand picked Holly to replace her. If anyone read Pat's book, they would know that is not true. Pat said Holly told her that she wanted the job and wanted to succeed Pat. They discussed it while at the beach in Florida.

the frustration is only natural but the lady vols have next year's top recruiting class. Obviously the reputation and past accomplisments still attract some of the best!! Next year will be the start of a turnaround!!

DD has 29 assists to 34 turnovers.
Most of her turnovers are off the dribble or bad passes. Not good for a PG.

Middleton 22-17 and Reynolds 25-9 are the only two with more assists than TO's.

Alexa has 65 pts in 25 min per game, while Jordan has 45 in 33 min per game.

To me the choice is pretty clear.
