Watched yesterday and easily the worst game I've seen us play in about 2 years. Nothing was going down, even seemed like we got out rebounded by a slacker assed rebounding team. Didn't look at the stats, but shooting 25% will get you beat all day long and twice on Sunday. Nothing was in synch. This crap happens on the road for all teams, just hope it doesn't happen on a regular basis.
His plan is to also flood his roster with more international players.
I'm not labeling the Vols as world beaters but they've always played great defense, even in Gainesville when we won by 30. The score was 9-0 for the first 7-8 minutes of the game. It's just the postseason where they suck, hence the coach's name, regular season Rick.
I hope so, but the lackadaisical effort was troubling. We've got a very good Vandy team next, then Auburn and Mississippi State. Need to win 2 of 3 to prove they belong in the Top 10, IMO.

The backups really played well. Condon and Richard did as well. From now on teams are going to play with their hands all over us.
I'm glad I watched it. Vanderbilt is a very good team with wins over Tennessee & Kentucky. To win by 11 without Clayton was huge. Will Richard came up big in the 2nd half, Condon had a great game, Aberdeen played well in his role as a starter, Haugh was solid and Ailjah Martin came back from a bad start and an injured hip to have a really good 2nd half. Great game to watch and an excellent, hard fought win over a good team. Every SEC game this year is going to be a batlle.

Great insight, but at times Clayton can be a ball hog. The first few minutes of the Tennesse game he hardly passed the ball and took several bad shots, missing them all. He's an excellent player but sometimes forgets that as the point guard he's supoosed to be the distributor and let the game come to him.
Aberdeen just dribbles too much. Clayton, however, will go through spurts where he feels the need to try to score every time he has the ball in his hands. Sometimes he gets hot and goes on a scoring spree. Other times he misses a bunch and puts the team in a funk. Again, excellent player, just not distributing like he should at times. Plus he turns the ball over way too much for a point guard. For example, last year Zion Pullin had 162 assists to 42 turnovers, roughly a 4 to 1 ratio. This year Walter has 79 assists to 51 turnovers, roughly a 1.5 to 1 ratio. He, also, has the lowest FG % of the starting 5 at .450 and only the 3rd best 3 point % at .359. I'm not saying he's not a great player. He's the obvious leader of the team and we're 19-3. I'm just pointing out that there are areas where he could play better and help the team more.
oh he's def too lazy with the ball too often.. sometimes he looks like he doesn't care at all, but he seems like a guy that can make the big time shot in March when we need it the most.
eh I don't see it, we haven't really played well in awhile and just keep getting even more banged up like a football team.. Miss State has lost all their big home games and are bound to get one, we seem to be the SEC's perfect little sacrificial cow when SEC teams need a win.. Playing prison rules at Auburn on Saturday evening we should just be lucky to get out of there without someone on our team getting their leg broken again.
I like all the players but he is special. He never seems to get down when things aren’t going well for him. And no showing out either. True competitor.
