Good days ahead for the Lady Vols.

Win out, and the LVs easily get a #3 seed; win the conference tourney and we're a #2. Not too shabby for a "rebuilding" year. Of course, they will probably drop a couple more, but one can always hope!

I would like to see how well Ucan't would play without Maya Moore, Rene Montgomery and Tina Charles. We're #13 without our 3 top players (if you count Cain not being 100%). My guess is that Guido Auri-enema isn't a good enough coach to even keep them in the top 25. Enjoy the ride to 39-0 this year, but sooner or later you will suffer to graduation, the WNBA and injuries the way we have this year. Remember, the Lady Vols aren't rebuilding, we are reloading.

MIKE, Got to give you the credit for your team this year..But for some reason I don't remember you in here the past two years..If you were I don't remember it and if you were I know you were not bragging about WHO IS NEXT!!

I know what you are saying Mike but we lost all 5 starters from last year..That is hard to get over and they ALL went to a pro team..
