Re: Vandy-Mississippi State thread

On tv it appears the student section is full and LOUD. Best crowd since??? I took this photo at 650pm…packed. Well done students. Haven’t seen this in decades. Would be nice to see one later in the game since upper decks are not showing people there. I think I could see them on the tv though.

And what a game it was. A good team to close the season, despite injury adversity!

Re: Florida Win and Tournament hopes

Are we a 6-6 middle of the road SEC team with some good wins and bad losses that is on a bit of a win streak. Or are we a tough, increasingly deep, team making a late move that can impose its will into the NCAA’s? At the beginning of the season I’d have hoped we were the former. Can we actually be ...

Re: Well, Birmingham has spoken........

I think it's wrong to fine schools over a mild rushing of the court like this. I don't understand why they do this. if there was damage or harm, maybe, but there was nothing like that and it allows the kids to get into the game and want to show up. $250k is a ridiculous amount to fine them over that...

Re: Vanderbilt-Tennessee game thread

I would love to know if that play was drawn up - personally I believe Manjon gets the credit for finding Tyrin. Looked like the play was for Manjon and he was doubled… The refs “let them play” tonight. But giving us the extra .4 seconds was game altering. We got that shot off at .0001. In the postg...

This was a long and confusing sentence for me, and its full meaning was over my head. I probably don't want or need to though, as it's likely Coffee Shoppe material.
yes it was a run-on sentence, sorry.

Re: Shan Foster's take on the situation via Twitter

I don't think racism is the primary driver here, but I don't have a hard time believing it's a factor for some people. Even when he was hired there were rumblings about "affirmative action hire." I went to Vanderbilt in the 80s and saw a fair amount of overt racism from my peers. It was n...

Re: Well...this is an interesting starting lineup

Kevin Stallings returned the favor to Kentucky five years later, beating them by 41 points , one of UK's most lopsided losses in their history, so nobody during the rest of his tenure was thinking about the earlier loss differential after that. Shan Foster alone had outscored UK into the 2nd half; ...

Re: Shan Foster's take on the situation via Twitter

Shan deserves his opinion, but I think there's nothing to see here. For all of his lack of success and roster issues, people have been relatively easy on Stack. I witnessed far worse vitriol for Stallings and Drew on here than Stack's ever gotten. He's been deserving of everything that's come his w...

Re: Well...this is an interesting starting lineup

All that I said aside, that does not make the Stallings analogy that I was going over one that may be on point with the current situation. I just decided to review what happened in games against UK during his tenure since the 106-44 loss was mentioned.

Re: Well...this is an interesting starting lineup

No chance this will be 106-44, right? Wasn't that the score of the game versus UK during Stallings tenure? Everyone seemed to ride Stallings after that until he was run out of town. So what about Stackhouse? He doesn't have the tourney apprearances or sweet 16's to hang on to. This game against a f...

Re: Alabama just made another 3

that game was predictable after what happened to Alabama the game prior.

The amount of rage Alabama must hav...
