Isn’t this the game Cuonzo would’ve wanted? Grant Williams fouled out with four points on 1-of-8 shooting. The Vols lead the nation in assist percentage at 69%. Tonight: only 12 assists on 31 made shots, 38.7%. Missouri made Tennessee beat them with more one-on-one play, and do so without much […]
The Vols held on to number three in the AP poll, 18 votes behind Michigan for number two, 10 votes ahead of Virginia at number four. Those three and number one Duke are also the one seeds in the most recent Bracket Matrix. The Cavaliers and Blue Devils will square […]
With the December 2018 Early Signing Period in the books, the recruiting world will get cranked back up this weekend after the dead period ends. And after watching last night’s National Championship Game one can be sure that Coach Jeremy Pruitt is chomping at the bit to do everything he […]
When you carry the number three next to your name, it’s easy for the enjoyable to get a little too normal. You nitpick, you look ahead, etc. Tennessee was favored by 15 (via KenPom) over Georgia today in the SEC opener, a team Rick Barnes had beaten once – barely, […]
When last we met: It’ll be another sellout, this time to open league play. Thought this was interesting: Before the split last season, the Vols lost two games (one in the SEC Tournament) to Georgia by three total points in 2017. And in 2016, Georgia won 81-72 in Athens. Mark […]
Last year the SEC rose from its slumber: after placing three teams in the 2017 Elite Eight, the league sent eight to the dance floor last March. Six won in the first round. And then, disappointment. No. 3 seed Tennessee lost to No. 11 Loyola-Chicago. No. 4 seed Auburn lost […]
As next week brings All-Star Games, each game includes Vol signees and targets as well, with OL Darnell Wright and ILB Henry To’oto’to the prime prospects at the Under Armour All-America Game and All-American Bowl, respectively. Tennessee signees OL Wanya Morris and S Jaylen “Tank” McCullough will represent the Vols at the UA […]
With apologies to our friends from Cookeville, I’m not sure how much is left to learn about the Vols entering conference play. Tomorrow, Tennessee hosts Tennessee Tech: 330th in KenPom, where the Vols are projected to win by 30. From there, we begin at last season’s end: Georgia comes to […]
Tennessee’s Early Signing Period class ranks #13 in the country and #6 in the SEC. These respective rankings of course do not count the addition of the Aubrey Solomon, who was a 5-star DT in the class of 2017 and has played in both of his seasons at Michigan – […]
AARON BEASLEY, 6’1″, 210 SAFETY/ATHLETE, FRANKLIN, GA (HEARD COUNTY HS) Tennessee needs secondary help, and the Vols got it in a big way during early signing period, starting with Georgia hard-hitting safety Aaron Beasley. The versatile athlete also could play running back for the Vols, but he’s expected to stick […]
