Lots of players missing today's game with VaTech. I assume some kind of flu going on throughout the team.

Rickea Jackson out due to Coach's Decision. That sounds ominous

Also Franklin and Hollingshead are out due to concussion protocol...On RJ...

Possibly being disciplined, no, not her....

TN has really upped their Defensive intensity. Key outplaying Kitley and Horston the best player on the court.

Seemed to all start when Marta came in…

VTech decided to play Suarez with their smallest player down low?

Yep, cause we know TN isn’t running anything to get that matchup.

Can anyone hear the Tennessee fan absolutely going INNNNNNNN on the officials? LOL. The boom mic is picking up her voice and it's hilarious.

Best strategy I have seen in TN in years. Sabotaging the shot clock to cool off the Hokies.

Jackson has a history of butting heads and getting into trouble with her former coaches. I mean she has been suspended many times already. Sad as this may be I do applaud Coach Harper for putting her foot down and making a statement that no matter how talented you are, no one is above the program.

I don't celebrate 'moral victories' but despite the disappointing loss yesterday, TN actually showed a lot of fight and played hard. Key seemed to finally show some signs of life.

Yes Jackson does seem to be a "me first" type of person.... but that may be unfair.... i don't know her all that well.... i think i saw her the end of the Gonzaga game..... heading straight for the locker room at the final buzzer... not a good look when your teammates are on the floor shaking hands going through the post game line and she was not with them....

and yes.... Tennessee really showed some fight yesterday..... distinctly unlike their other games this season.... that is how they should be bringing it every game to the hardwood. a noticeable improvement

He could have left out all the personal attacks and just talked basketball.

He could have left out all the personal attacks and just talked basketball.

And it would have been much more concise. Probably lasting 5 minutes, which was all I needed to get his point.

He's got an axe to grind with the current generation of players and Coach Staley based on what he's got on his channel. Not sure what he experienced to get to this opinion, but it's definitely not a fair representation of female student athletes at all.

Yea. I honestly found him disgusting. I kept thinking if Rikea broke his heart. He sounded that personal.

I give credit to Tennessee for playing a very tough schedule. Remaining schedule includes Stanford and then UConn in January. Not many teams have challenged themselves that way.

Change "that" to "too". But I don't think it's Rikea specifically. There's some serious resentment towards the current generation of women, specifically music artists, and how they conduct themselves.

Sadly, I've heard similar rants from others. To me, all it comes across as a bad stereotype from people who are bitter with today's generation because they don't understand and aren't willing to try.

I agree. Specifically regarding Mississippi State he was not completely accurate. In the back to back National Championship game years there were several “four stars” or at least that level talent. He is correct that the composition of that team with R Jackson what’s the first where he had several highly rated players on it and not many blue collar players to fill roles.

 

[dws3665]

He also dead-names M.A. Voepel, which is kind of yuck as well (he isn't "Michelle" anymore). Really a bit sad that someone needs to make an almost hour-long attack video about a college kid.

I see Tennessee isn't receiving any votes in this weeks poll. Has this ever happened before?

Lol. Close.
It was Middle Tennessee that received 1 vote. The Tennessee team that plays for the university in Knoxville received zero votes.
