Last year Tenn beat CN 128-59. It's difficult to understand how this year's Lady Vol team put up only 70 points.

It was a weird game. In last year's game Evina had 8 assists and 4 steals. That's more assists than the entire team had in today's game (6).

All 12 players played double digit minutes which means Coach Harper experimented a ton with different lineups, etc...that didn’t happen last year. It was ugly, but I was encouraged with some things I saw. They still need work and look like the young team they are.

It did happen last year. All 10 players played double digit minutes.

Close to what I expected. With a new coaching staff. In a game like this. Tennessee used just a base package. Now there is some game film to go over. ETSU is a better team. Let's see what adjustments are made.

i thought tennessee looked awful, especially the post play. kk looked as if she had cement blocks on her feet. Rennia Davis played with the same lackadasical effort she had last season. Massengill looked totally ineffective, just like last season. Burrell had some good moments, but made an equal amount of boneheaded plays. The only real bright spot i saw was horston honestly. coach kelly just looked totally uninspired and tired.

ill have to adjust my expectations big time for this team and predict maybe 8-9 place finish in the sec. i think they lose to alabama again as well. they will be lucky to make the ncaa tournament.
 
That was a rough scrimmage for Tennessee. I noticed many on the Vols forum are blaming holly for tonight. It did sorta look like Holly 2.0 tonight though. Horrible offensive execution.

I will say, it was a really odd moment when the buzzer sounded. Rather than getting up to shake hands with the other team or greet her players, Harper just kinda sat there with a rather blank look on her face for several seconds, which I was inclined to read as "boy, do we have a lot of work to do" — or maybe that was just me projecting.

Haha I like how losing to Alabama has become an annual low water mark for this program. Let's hope it continues.

My goodness
 
Kicking into mid-season shooting form pretty quickly I would say.
Good thing they can jump.

Saw Q1 and was not impressed at all and called it quits. Nothing but out jumping their over matched opponents physically.

and that was their best Q apparently.

Freshmen duo Haley Franks w/ 17 points, Blackwell with 16 points. They will be a fun duo to watch this year.


Off topic, I have really liked what I have seen from Faith Masonius for Maryland in the first two scrimmages. She isn't talked about as much with Diamond Miller and Owusu but I like her game a lot.

Stanford over Beijing Normal 100-58.

This link looks like it will always go to the latest game, but maybe you'll still be able to navigate to older games from it...

Seems Belebi will be a force. How long till she makes the starting lineup?

Given the fact that Dodson didn't dress for the game and Fingall is minutes-limited by the coaches while she continues to come back from ACL surgery, I wouldn't be surprised if Belibi functions as a starter (ie ends up playing more minutes than either Fingall or Dodson, even if Tara starts one or both of them on the basis of seniority). Based on one data point, I'm way, way more sanguine about having Jerome and Belibi as our post presences on the floor than I was even a month ago. Observers of that game said Jerome has transformed herself, and Tara has also been saying how improved she is. I'm hopeful Jerome is playing her way into the new score-anywhere Alanna Smith type post player for us, even if she never gets to Smith's All-American level of playing ability.
 
Maryland defeats Lincoln (Pa.) 115-52. For the second year in a row Maryland may have found a diamond in the rough. Last year it was Mikesell. This year Faith Masonius has been awesome thus far. She has played better than her two more heralded teammates and scored 21 points including a very impressive 15 points in the first half. It will be interesting to see how she does against more talented teams like South Carolina and NC State in the OOC schedule.

Well, finally had the courage to go back this morning and see excerpts of the 2nd half. That alone should push them off the top 50.

Full game youtube link.



Searching for the Kellie Harper reaction after game I heard on this thread and god bless her, she came through. She is going to need an extra large order of Tylenol this season. She aged 10 years and probably want's to renegotiate.

Let's remember coach Harper team last year.
That started the season 1-7, and made the sweet 16.

Definitely a different set of problems trying to coach a group of very talented players who have underachieved under the crucible of TN

I think it's too early to say how this team will do this year. This was her first game. Now she has game film to go over. She has not got a set rotation yet. How deep will the rotation go against the better teams? This game Tennessee didn't press. I am sure next game you will see some different things both on defense and offense.

Ummm, didn't they go on a European tour this summer? One might think they would be further along??

Those were against teams not very good. Also the gyms were no were close as nice as TBA. The crowd was a lot bigger last night. Also Carson Newman was on the schedule as a exhibition game.

And New-Car is a very good team?? A very good Div II team??

So wouldn't that imply TN would be better at home in front of their own fans??

Ok, and? They were last year too, when TN won 128-59 under Holley.

None of that explains why TN having had extra practice and games in the summer (August so only a couple months ago) isn't further along.

You can be happy if you want, however if I were a TN fan (after I immolated myself of course), I might be a bit worried after that showing.

They are good for division II

There were a few nerves last night.
Horston had them I could tell. Once she settles in she will be fine.

Did Holly's team improve over the season?
Players are also adjusting to a new coaching staff.

the crowd was only 3300, only marginally better than the 3200 that showed up for the exhibition last year. i figured there would be a much bigger turnout for the start of a new coaching era for the lady vols
