It used to be that midway through football season we were looking forward to basketball. Now we have to look all the way to baseball. Sad…

Stagnant offense. Lots of just standing around, lazy passing.

Excellent point

I’m not sure but I don’t think the problem is necessarily getting into grad school. We have limited graduate programs and athletes’ undergraduate majors don’t always match with what’s available at the next academic level.

I posted above my fear he wasn’t accepted into grad school. If memory serves me, it seems we’ve lost some graduated seniors in previous years for the same reason.

Bummer about Davis. Is he a grad transfer? Wonder if he wanted to leave or maybe couldn’t get into grad school. Seems we have lost graduates with eligibility left in previous years.
We probably will never know.

That was about as poorly officiated game as I have ever seen…and I’ve seen some bad ones in 60+ years of watching VU MBB. I hated getting those technicals, but love Stack’s fire and his not backing down post game.

He had an incredibly quick release coming off screens…with accuracy.

First things first, but fingers crossed that Ray decides to come back.

Yes, happy birthday!
I know, I know we should all be focused only on next Saturday, but wouldn’t it be great to hear from Ray that he’s coming back for his Covid year of eligibility. On my wish list!
(Sorry if this is also in another thread).

Does Ray Davis have another (Covid) year of eligibility? If so, what are the chances he comes back.

Commodore, it was UK in 1967. You’re right the weather was absolutely miserable. It was Dickie Lyons the UK player who ran back the long interception to beat us. I was there and I was about as miserable as the weather.

Not for VU BB, but went to the Hippodrome many times for skating, concerts, and professional wrestling.

Players and coaches (maybe coaches especially) need to realize Scotty is gone. We sure miss his 19+ ppg, but he is GONE. We need better schemes, and we need some passion and urgency from our upper class men. We’re playing like we’re still counting on SPJ to pull us through.

I can go back even further than the Lee, Grace, Miller teams. Under coach Bob Polk Bobby Thym. Al Rochelle, Hobby Gibbs and others laid a solid foundation for Roy Skinner to build on. Even in the days before the balconies, Memorial Gym was a place even Adolph Rupp hated to bring his teams to. Yes, s...

Someone on that staff ought to be able to teach basic fundamentals. My confidence in Stack took a major step backwards after these two games. Wright, Robbins, Stute, and even Thomas have regressed from last year. I place that squarely on coaching. On top of poor execution, there also seemed no passi...

The good news is the loss. The bad news is they’ll be looking to score all they can, these last three games with Mizzou, USCe, and VU coming up.

I’ll be silently pulling for Georgia. I’m outnumbered by fans of that other team in my own household…ugh! In fairness, they are also VU supporters. So it’s not all bad.

Count me also expecting a Tennessee win. As said in earlier post, they are for real…as much as it pains me to acknowledge it.
