Halloween Closed Scrimmage Against Davidson.

That'll be a nice test. NCAA Tournament team with a fabulous coach.

 

I like it.

 

Too bad it is a closed scrimmage.

 

Hearing everything but the situational stuff went very well today. If we can play with Davidson, we can compete with the vast majority of the teams on the schedule.

 

SEC your standard SEC this year?

 

It's better, but still probably a year from being really good.

 

Good to hear. I believe the effort will be relentless with this team. Favorite time of the year is hoops season.

 

@GoodmanESPN: Tennessee edged out Davidson in scrimmage. Armani Moore went for 30 and 14, Kevin Punter with 27 points. Peyton Aldridge 19 & 9 for Davidson

 

Wow

 

Where should i set expectations? 15 wins? Bubble team?

 

Anything better than .500 will be a pleasant surprise for me.

 

Wait, what? Is our upcoming slate that much better than Davidson.

I know shit about basketball, including what TN has / lacks, but I was encouraged by the news that we played well against a good team...to now hear that we'll be lucky to hit .500.

Can Tennessee just be good at one m'fing sport, please? Sometime? Anytime? Any sport. Something.

Damn.

 

Softball is your best bet.

 

I would not be surprised to see us do better.

 

Sounds like the Davidson thing will be a yearly things as Barnes has scrimmaged most years for some time now.

Kasango was held out due to NCAA not clearing him for anything other than practice per VQ.

 

You can't have disastrous hires and expect to progress. That Hart has a job after the Tyndall debacle is really unfair. No one else could make that big of an error relative to their job and not be looking for a new line of work.

 

31 games, I'd like to get to 17 or 18 wins and go .500 in conference. I think that would be a very good season all things considered.

 

Is there a player in UT's recent history that has improved as much as Armani Moore?

 

Josh Richardson

 

Josh always had the potential, especially on defense. I think his was more of a he grew into the role offensively because he had to when the options weren't there.
