UT men’s basketball
- Thread starter JBell
- Start date
European Clowns! Rick Barnes taking a vacation mid season instead of the 1st round NCAA !that's all….
I'd like to think these back to back losses on buzzer beaters would benefit them down the road but my gut says otherwise. Didn't see the game and only the replay of the end. Bama will beat the brakes off of them.

Being a Vandy fan and the husband to a Vol wife, I love it
You should have more respect for your wife and her feelings.

Great game. Guy throws up a hail Mary at the buzzer and sinks it from the parking lot. Not sure what the op's expectations are but any team on any night.
Op, what was your record playing D1 basketball?

I think it's going to be a close game. Bama didn't play great against Auburn. I think Tennessee will play better because of the competition.
Basketball in HS , and tennis for top ten in nation junior college in the 70's when everyone played. I never lost a match so I know a little about competition and taking no prisoners. Who fouls at the free throw line and then doesn't contest the guy coming down the court?Great game. Guy throws up a hail Mary at the buzzer and sinks it from the parking lot.

No killer in your face instinct and total lack of discipline in their shot selection. Some of Ziglar's shots in the past two games are high light films what basketball is not

You never lost a match but didn't progress beyond juco? Injuries caught up with you I presume. Impressive feat.
I just saw the replay of the Missouri buzzer beater "from the parking lot". That guy was not pressured all the way down the court and he was only 5' or so behind the arc. People shoot from there all the time now. He was mostly in contested as well. So I'm beginning to wonder brownings record as a athlete. He must have only shot layups.
College tennis matches usually play SIX singles and three doubles matches. I played that 5-6 singles and 2 doubles. 1-2 guys usually went to D1 programs their junior senior years.
No I wanted to try to get into med school and organic chemistry and trying to walk on at ETSU wasn't going to work out. Ha.
Talked to the coach. He's attitude was " well you can try but #1guy is from Argentina #2 from South Africa, # 3 Australia , # 4 Spain , and this was 1977!!!! American kids don't stand a chance when college coaches recruit like this.
But , it all worked out in the end and not bad for a kid from Horsepasture VA , and son of a factory worker and auto parts secretary. Ha!
I don't know if these kids are just gassed or just don't care but something is wrong with this team.

When I was at UT in the mid 80's, the decent women's players were from England
