Fred makes you shake your head sometimes, but he's been big time in two straight games against quality opponents.

We've lost games when Chicken or IJ play really well, but Fred playing well seems to go hand-in-hand with us winning games.

Big win tonight. Thanks Chicken.

His basketball IQ is in the "moron" range. Dribbling with his head down as 2 Tennessee players are closing in on him. Throwing skip passes into the stands (@ Ole Miss). Throwing the ball away near the end of the game when all you need to do is take care of the ball. On and on. At least he made some shots.

I would call Fred a "show up" guy. He shows up when things are going well and adds to it. He's one of those "extra" freestyle type players that does well with a core of players around him. Not a leader, not your go to guy, but I think with Sword back and the others playing solid, he will do well for the rest of the season. He just has that body language recently like "ok now its time to play". I am sure that drives Rick Ray insane...

we shot 73% from 3, Tenn was 25%

8 for 11 from 3..... can't bet on that every night

Also, get this, Sword and Thomas combined went 12 - 15 (80%) from the field and 14 - 17 (82%) from the charity stripe. Scored 46 of our 71 points (65%).

What concerns me again is our defense against guards. Josh Richardson for Tenn dropped 30 points on us, we have got to defend guard play better, its embarrassing.
