We went 18-36 from the free throw line against Bama and followed that up with 7-17 against Tenn. That’s freaking pathetic. Middle school teams can shoot better than that.

Correct, my bad. 15 points in 17 minutes.

He's the only dependable shooter I've seen on this team other than when Moore or Davis gets hot

This game brought back memories of the Rick Ray era beat downs.

Ben Howland never got his *** kicked that bad. 4th best shooting % ever by TN. Our leading scorer is a transfer from Mississippi Southern that grew up in New Hope. Jan’s ‘Ed up on a couple of recruits that we had committed. Not so sure he is as bright as we had hoped. Another Typical JC hire.

While I and others were very disappointed in this game, and to be fair.....I am more than willing to give Jans at least 3-4 years to really turn this program around for good. I like his half court offense that will fast break when the opportunity presents itself, but I'm just not sure we have all the horses we need to run it. Tolu really has no short to mid range jumper a guy 6'10" needs in our league. He's good around the basket on power layups, but teams now have him figured out and can neutralize him.....and he's about 2/3rds of our offense.

I remember years ago we lost at Alabama by 49. I believe Gary Ervin was on that team. This could very well be that type of outcome.

Won by 25 at their place the next year. Wish we had Ervin now. We have NO talent on this team. It’s on Jan’s. Did horrible In transfer mode. This ain’t the Mountain 10 he is in.

We played very bad, but Tennessee won't repeat that shooting performance again for a very long time.

They will if we play that uninspired and quit like we just did.

No, no they won't
