Tenn is bound to start hitting shots so we need start getting and making easier looks. Take the open ones and get to the hoop

I know this might sound ridiculous and it's probably nothing... but is not starting somehow affecting Riley for the worse? Like, probably nothing but just trying to figure out his regress. He's gotta get right. Was good early... shot and confidence just not there rn.

I think it's the step up in competition. He was having big game against lower level competition. We're playing with the big boys now; there was always gonna be an adjustment period.

Much better competition now and a scouting report on what he does

He’s just too sped up. Trying to create and not letting it come to him.

Starting wouldn't make him stronger. He just got thrown out the club on a rebound.

Extremely high level defensive game.

Good news is it appears we have learned how to play with physicality, bad news is refs letting people bang and yet calling some ticky tac fouls. Need to get KB back for 2nd half

Again, why do we suck @$$ at inbounds!?!

I'd love to hear why Jake is playing as early and as much as he does and Booth hasn't seen the flour in four games.

Booth is softer then butter and has shot horrible so far this season against weak competition and he'd be a major weakness on
Defense against the #1team in the country. Not to be mean but that should be self explanatory

I feel like I've been cringing at every inbound play of ours for 5 years now

No excuse for an inbounds pass to be stolen. This has been a problem with Underwood for years. and the players should know how to get open. It's not a walk through.
