24 hr grace period for all posters after a loss

For a game one….top level competition…both teams showed some mental toughness. Gritty stuff.

C’mon BY family, give stwainfan some slack. It’s only their first game…..and NC State’s. 🤭 After all the scoring that NC State lost from last season and the athleticism that Tennessee gained, you would think that the outcome would have been in Tennessee’s favor. What happened to their substitution and speed advantage? Did CKC not have the right players in when it mattered most? I’m very puzzled, coach. 😵‍💫 I saw some very exhausted Tennessee players. NC State exposed that full court press.

Okay I also had a revival to work. But my take on the team. Two really good team's that can play deep in March. I think Tennessee will be fine. Civil and Mia Pauldo are going to be really good. It takes time Caldwell has said. I still think this is a team that compete for a championship.

The Pauldo dad is going to be a real problem.

I watched a fair amount of this game. My thoughts are:
1. Without Cooper, Tennessee would be toast. Most of the reason that they didn’t get blown out was because Cooper put up a heroic effort.
2. It wasn’t enough time to adjust the loss of Whitehorn.
3. The substitution patterns seem to be a hot mess.
4. For the most part, the press was pretty ineffective. Tennessee took 77 shots in the game, NC State took 76. That alone tells you that they weren’t getting the amount of turnovers that they needed in order to play with controlled reckless abandon.
5. Tennessee shot much better on two point shots than they did on threes but 33 of their 77 shots were threes. I think they need to do a better job of looking for a good shot and not just taking the first shot. I know that goes against what Coach Caldwell is trying to do, but it would probably serve them better.

For what it’s worth, I think the NC State is over ranked. Wes has done a pretty good job cobbling together a roster, but this really isn’t a team that I see going deep into March. I think that Tennessee has the players to be pretty good, but they’re really reliant on freshman, and the coach is going to have to figure out some better strategies. Again, just my two cents.

Great points. Regarding the over ranked point, it was mentioned during the broadcast that Coach Moore feels the same way.
