@SullenSerf Personally not really interested

I need you to pull a JP Estrella Sir

@BrittanyBoswe11 With all due respect good luck finding a program that gives defensive players as much run as Barnes. Boswell was playing 30 minutes a night after a horrible freshman season. Acting as if it was a role issue is insane to me.

SAY THAT A LIL LOUDER PLEASE

@rott250 @Clowfb Carey was good at offense bad at defense.

@Clowfb Hmm all the guys entering the portal were great at defense but horrible at offense. Barnes is letting them walk

A lot of these decisions are not so much basketball decisions as they are financial decisions. Some of these guys would have been asked to take on different roles or even less money. Can’t blame players for trying to cash in by getting in the portal. That’s just where we are now in college sports. But Tennessee under Rick Barnes has gone to three straight Elite Eights and four straight Sweet 16s with different players and coaches coming and going. Don’t see that changing, as Tennessee will give him the money he needs to bring in more proven scorers and players who value playing in a proven program.

@CraigGrafx @Danielflip2 @V_F_L_ @Clowfb @NathanWest Compare Evans as a frosh to Boswell and it is not remotely close.

@Danielflip2 @V_F_L_ @Clowfb @NathanWest He could develop into a better defender but I don’t remember the hottest shooter in the country calling out Evans, by name, after the sweet 16.

Talked to several in around Tennessee’s program and Vols are willing to pay, but not overpay. Rick Barnes will be aggressive in the portal. Emphasis will be on players who want to be at Tennessee and build on three straight Elite Eights, and he knows he has to have more scorers.

@zerubbable8639 @Clowfb Lmaoooo maybe the reason UK can’t get out of the first weekend is because they don’t have any players that set screens/play defense? Maybe Kentucky should try that! And they’ll make 3 straight elite 8s like we did.

@Clowfb It doesnt matter. Your still TENNESSEE ! Nobody wants to play defense and set screens and lose to Kentucky and florida in a half empty arena

@matthewwinick @BigOrangeNatty @3PointSniper_ He moves okay. He was the Vols third most mobile big before Phillips went down. I’m not sure he’s much more mobile than Brown. He’s a horrible defender honestly. He’s a very very talented offensive player though, would have liked to keep him.

@BigOrangeNatty @3PointSniper_ Not a rim protector but moves well. Probably best suited for drop coverage but could end up being more versatile than that.

Estrella's rebounding/touch/ball skills trio is pretty rare. Guys with his oreb + EFG% + AST% in P5 hoops in the last 15 years: Oscar Cluff Tarris Reed Zach Edey Oscar Tshiebwe He was Tennessee's best on/off big by far this year.

@CapnKD3 @FOXSportsKnox He left Tennessee. Key didn’t leave Tennessee. You forfeit vfl if you voluntarily depart. Key did not.

@jadwigapilled @FOXSportsKnox Is Bryce Brown a VFL?

VFL and former Tennessee guard Tyreke Key is set to make his NBA debut with the Toronto Raptors 🍊 Key signed a 10-day contract with the Toronto Raptors on Monday, and will make his NBA debut this week. The Tennessee native spent one season with the #Vols during the 2022-23 season, and put up 8.2 points per game in 33 appearances. The VFL has spent the past two seasons with the Raptors 905 (Toronto’s G-League affiliate). Congrats, Tyreke!

@CapnKD3 @FOXSportsKnox He absolutely is. Fuck you retard.

@FOXSportsKnox He’s not a vfl you clowns!

@FOXSportsKnox Massive 🖕🏿 to Barnes. Boswell was utter trash as a freshman and Barnes gave him a starting role, when 90% of coaches would have told him to kick rocks last offseason. Appreciate the effort but if you don’t wanna be here then good riddance.

BREAKING: Tennessee guard Bishop Boswell will enter the Transfer Portal Boswell, a two-year member of the program, averaged 6.2 points and 4.4 rebounds in 33 starts for the #Vols this season. The six-foot-four, Charlotte, NC native was a four-star recruit in the 2024 class.

@HaterReport I get it, I love having more passion in the game the nba is missing a lot of it. But this is a technical foul all day every day I’ve never seen a coach get away with this.

Nah man Dan Hurley is a PSYCHO. Why he do this to the referee 😂🤣

@chrizvfl @datkiddRobert Robert Hubbs, was a 5 star recruit for the Vols.

@datkiddRobert Seriously, who are you? Why don’t you have your name in your X bio?

No they didn’t!! We paved the way.. they just took it to another level!! Yall gone start giving my squad some respect

@thrillhouse416 @VicNobu @DoeJumars @ShamsCharania Okay, watch regular season college hoops then watch regular season nba. Effort level is simply not close, everyone can see it with eyes. Whether that is a season length problem, or lazy players, or both (it’s both), it needs to stop.

@jadwigapilled @VicNobu @DoeJumars @ShamsCharania How can you compare game 57 of an NBA regular season to a single elimination postseason tournament? Doesn't make sense. When do NBA players get shut down in Game 7 of the ECF to tank?

The NBA presented three comprehensive anti-tanking concepts to its Board of Governors on Wednesday, with modifications expected to each before a formal vote in May, per ESPN sources. 1. 18 teams in draft lottery (seeds 7-15 in each conference) – flattened odds, with bottom 10 teams having an 8% chance, the remaining 20% odds distributed in decreasing order for 11 through 18, and and a lottery drawing for all 18 picks. 2) 22 teams in lottery using 2-year record (seeds 7-15, plus the four playoff first round exits in both conferences). Lottery teams would reach a minimum win total floor in each season, such as 25 wins. If a team falls short of the floor, it gets slotted to meet the floor. Top 4 drawn as part of lottery, as is currently. 3) 18 teams in a "5 by 5" lottery – bottom 5 teams have equal odds for the top pick, with lottery formed for picks 1-5. Bottom 5 teams have a floor at 10; those that fall out of top 5 get sorted in a separate drawing.

@CCB_3 @GoodmanHoops He hates Tennessee so much lmao.

@GoodmanHoops Hey you fookin clown.. give the Vols some credit

UConn hangs on for the 67-63 win against Michigan State. FOUR HUGE free throws from Taris Reed (59% FT shooter) and pair from Alex Karaban in final minute. Karaban also with a big-time 3 late in the game. Huskies face Duke Sunday afternoon with a Final 4 berth on the line.

This was a Rick Barnes masterclass. As good of a gameplan as I've seen from him since he got here. Completely dictated the terms of agreement for the final 35 minutes. Respect is owed

@drakectollshow You are one of the dumbest people alive when it comes to basketball knowledge. What a misfire on the Vols game. Iowa State clearly the less talented team. No 🐎

OOF: Hubert Davis FIRED At North Carolina, Mark Pope NEXT at Kentucky, MLB Opening Day, Yankees x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@thrillhouse416 @DoeJumars @ShamsCharania You realize if the players said they weren’t shutting down there is nothing a team could do to stop them. They never do that. Watch the ncaa tournament and tell me nba players play with the same effort. You’d be lying.

@DoeJumars @ShamsCharania Hold up, do you think tanking is done by the players????

@VicNobu @thrillhouse416 @DoeJumars @ShamsCharania He’s 100% correct btw. If the players said “I’m not shutting down, I’m healthy”, the team could do nothing. They never do that shit. There is a malaise in the nba. Watch the ncaa tournament effort and watch nba games and tell me that’s the same.

@thrillhouse416 @DoeJumars @ShamsCharania Wild to have a basketball themed account and think the players don't try.

@CanadianLukeyy @PFTCommenter For Iowa state yes. They got literally every call.

E L I T E

@nick_marv This was an absolute perfect example for anyone watching yall for the first time, I agree. How was watching Tennessee for the first time? A little better than you thought huh. Wasn’t close. Too small 🤏

THAT. Was a much needed Tamin Play. Perfect example for anyone watching ISU for the first time

@AdamHickman32 He was good tonight.

How much is AIPAC paying Rick Barnes to play Ethan Burg?
