Good effort by the Vols. Too many mistakes down the stretch to overcome against a team with that type of talent. (Note that I said TALENT and not coaching.) Looked to me like we ran out of gas coming off that game on Thursday night. Announcers said the team got home at 2 am yesterday morning so I suspect they got leg weary toward the end.
One fact to take away from the game. Jarnell Stokes is a stud. Book that. When he gets some experience and more stamina, look out. He made Terrence Jones look like the freshman after only four practices.
And by the way, how do Kentucky fans keep track of the players from year to year? They are in and out of school so fast, they must have the names velcroed to the jerseys for easy removal. (Is that Michael Walls or John Kidd-Gilchrist? I'm confused.) Allowing the one-and-done is still the biggest joke in colleges sports and Cal is the master of it. And yes, I say that about Tobias Harris and any of ours that do it.
Dude. Your rant only comes across as sour grapes. Calipari gets one and dones because the NCAA makes that rule, not him. You cannot blame him for wanting the best players he can get. If you are so opposed to one and dones...then you did not want Tobias Harris, and probably Stokes (who will likely go pro as soon as he is able to).
It was a nice effort by Tennessee today. I think the Vols will be a tough opponent the rest of the year, and if they can get a few breaks, could make a nice NIT team. Credit to Kentucky though....great teams find a way to win on the road, and they did.
