Tn@Ga

I have stated before that TN is the most consistently inconsistent team I've ever seen. After upsetting ND they lose to an unranked opponent. After a stunning win in Columbia against SC, and a comfortable win vs AR, they lose to unranked GA.

If by some small miracle the Vols make it to the Big Dance, they would be the wildest of wild cards, capable of beating just about anyone not named UConn, but also capable of losing to any lower ranked team that plays good team basketball.
 
Tennessee needs to give her a contract extension. Look at the teams they have beaten: South Carolina, ND. Plus she hauled in the top recruiting class for next year. There aren't too many better coaches available.
HF21 You make me laff !!! Great post.
 
We all know that UConn is not for everyone. By the same token, TN had a great tradition, still gets good fan support and has a coach who really seems like she's fun to play for, unless you're a highly motivated player that wants to win championships.

Last night DD had 34 pts & 10 TO's and Holly basically gave her a pass on the TO's because she scored all those points. Just think of what Geno or Pat Summit would have to say if a player committed 10 TO's in a single game, and a loss no less. DD could have scored 60 pts and it wouldn't have mattered to Geno & Pat.

Really good players go to TN because it's EASY. They'll always have enough talent to win more than they lose and nobody is going to demand that they develop their games or give a greater effort than they feel like giving.

Coach Geno would have pulled her long before she was able to commit that many turnovers, because at UConn defense is the key.
