Written on Lady Vols signee strikes out 34:

And the rich gets richer! Go Vols!

Written on Lady Vols can rank their concerns in top-10 fashion :

Simmons should ride the bench until she finally figures out what is a good shot and what is a bad shot.

Written on Who do want as UT's defensive coordinator?:

in response to tovolny:

Shannon would be here a year then...whoooppps, there he goes back to the NFL. Al WIlson is probably not ready for a DC position, but it seems like a "no brainer" that we should hire him as soon as possible. Al would spice up any coach's defense.

I had this dream recently:

Peyton Manning............HC
Peyton Manning............OC
John Chavis...............DC
Al WIlson/Jack Reynolds...LBs
Jabari Greer..............CBs
Stanley Morgan............Receivers
Alvin Harper..............TEs
Willy Gault/Bill Bates....STs
Scott Wells/Bob Johnson...O Line
Tony Dorsett/J Graham.....RBs
Bobby Scott...............QBs
Fuad Reveiz...............Kickers
Craig Colquett............Putters
Phillip Fulmer............Recruiting Coord.

Jabari Greer doesn't even want to acknowledge that he went to Tennessee, how is he going to be a coach for Tennessee?

Written on Vols picked 11th in SEC basketball :

in response to carbonzip:

How would this team be rated if Pearl was still here?

If Pearl was still here, there would have been a great chance that Tobias would still be here. Heck, even Scotty would have returned.

Written on Isabelle Harrison shows off wingspan, guard-like skills :

The future's so bright, you gotta wear shades!!!

Written on Pearl: 'We made progress', 86-56:

in response to roobomb:

I love the effort on defense. Melvin Goins is like a blanket out there. Tobias Harris may be the most composed freshman we've ever had. I think he is great for Scotty, because Scotty feels like he has to keep up with him. I think we'll do OK if they combine for 40 each game.

Tobias is one of the most composed Freshman we have ever had, but that title goes to Allan Houston.

Written on Lady Vols center recruits set visits :

I wonder if Kiah loves her visit and wants to commit on the spot, will Pat wait until Williams has her visit? And if Pat does wait, what will the perception be for Stokes as far as Tennessee wanting her?

Written on Adams: Fashion statement includes Dooley's hat, black jerseys :

This is a new era and we as Volunteer fans should embrace it. I also like the practice jerseys with the Addidas stipes on the side. Black jerseys would be cool. I think that grey jerseys would be cool too.

Written on Pearl a finalist for Red Auerbach College Coach of the Year award:

in response to Biggie:

You gotta be kidding me? How about the Nations Finest White Coach or the Nations Finest Christian Coach. I'm all for UT and Coach Pearl but it just strikes me funny that we can have any kind of award as long as it isn't for white, christian males....

because all the other awards are mostly given to white males.

Written on Adams: Tyler brings best out of Williams :

Mike,

You better hope that Connecticut blows out everyone. If they have a close gave, them will not know how to respond and may end up getting beat. The Lady Vols have been battle tested and would be up for the challenge. See you in the NCAAs!!!

Written on Halftime talk from 'irritated' coach helps six-point lead burgeon into blowout:

Our point guard play will have to improve. Just an observation, but it seems that everytime that Michael Hubert gets on the floor he shoots the 3 very well. I think that maybe he should get some time on the floor. I know it is early and Michael has embraced his role on this team, but stil what could it hurt?
Also, if you go back to last year, the first game played the Vols did everything right and look how the season ended up. Maybe this is a good sign and will be a final four team!

Written on Memphis' rush defense is hurting :

in response to memphis_vol_fan:

Hardesty and Brown are lickin' their chops!!!!

Not just Hardesty and Brown. So are Oku and Poole. Hardesty and Brown will not play in the 4th quarter. It will be blow out city by that time.

Written on Adams: No telling how center story ends :

in response to junder13:

What's wrong w/ you people?!?!? Seriously?!?!

This is a great article. It's talking about two completely different players on different paths and how their roles have reversed. Adams didn't do anything to contribute to how things have played out. He's simply reporting it. It's a great perspective. An unheralded walk-on who comes to UT to play the same position as the #1 recruit in the country 4 years ago and then is on the verge of starting his first collegiant game as a fifth-year senior! What remarkable perseverence! And you can't really tell the story w/o including the unfortunate (potentially tragic) injury-ridden career of McNeil--that #1 recruit who started 35 consecutive games and seemed destined to make it 47.

It's a really great story for Sullins and very sad for McNeil but no one knows how it will end and it could change completely again later this season. Who knows. That's all he's saying. Chill out, nutjobs!

Well put Junder!!!

Written on Scrimmage is likely crucial for Stephens :

Stephens had a problem of really getting on his receivers last year. They were fighting on the sidelines. He was pulled from a game because of that reason. JC will probably get the starting nod just because the receivers would probably rally around him better. Hopefully Stephens learned something from that.

Written on Spani finishes 1 for 6 :

in response to YankeeVol:

You know, I don't know why we have to have articles like this. It doesn't seem to do anything other than create pressure for an incoming freshman. To say she's 1 for 6 or 1 for 9 only creates an atmosphere where everything is microscopically analyzed. What is the follow-up story? Her lunch food choices, her cell phone minutes, the kind of shampoo she likes?

She needs for this to be published. This will be part of her life for as long as she continues to play basketball. We are still a very young team and we will need her to step up and not play like a freshman. That means not treating her like one as well. She has to learn to deal with the pressure.

Written on Tennessee men’s basketball coach Bruce Pearl’s new contract will pay him $1.9 million for next season. Do you think Pearl is :

The revenue that he is bringing in does not compare to his salary. He is being underpaid just because of that alone.

Written on Lady Vols to open with Baylor:

With that 6'8 girl coming in here. I hope that our post players are on their "A" game.

Written on Prospect Montana at Ohio State:

Scout.com has the top 100 in 2010 list posted. If you look on there under schools of interest, Tennessee, is on at least 40% of the prospects' lists. We are going to have a great recruiting season this year!

Written on Vols will have hands full with Hudson :

in response to 1manningfan:

is the game on tuesday at 7:00 or tonight? thanks

We can preview the column that will be in the Sentinel tomorrow. The game is tomorrow.

Written on Vols behind Gamecocks 21-0 at half:

Large university with strong history and loving fans seek a quarterback that can sustain a drive and stop over throwing receivers. Must love Orange!!!

Written on Vols behind Gamecocks 21-0 at half:

We are playing with no heart. Those stupid penalties are killing us as they have all season.

Written on Vols behind Gamecocks 21-0 at half:

in response to gavol2572:

I have just got home to watch the game. Why did Stephens get pulled for throwing a pick? Was he playing that badly? Fulmer put up with Crompton's junk for almost half of the season and Stephens gets pulled for one int?

I think that he was jawing with the other offensive players. You could see them on the sidelines going at it with each other.

Written on Rocky Top League schedule:

What class are you taking eVolution?

Written on Caldwell named coach at UCLA, leaves void at UT :

Good Luck Nikki!!! You will do great in LaLa land. Now we need to focus on getting Micki DeMoss back.

Written on Status of Parker is drawing attention of Rutgers :

Uconnfan, it just shows how classless you really are. Just take the beat down that Rutgers gave you with some dignity, and shut up! Did Geno put you up to this???
