Dumpster Fire Vol🔥

@MGesque @ClasslessVol It’s been ridiculous. Tennessee has virtually held their own against everybody nationally, just not really Michigan. But as I’ve told some of these others, Michigan has been better than about anyone the last 40 years. Competed for 6 titles I think?!

@CaptainPriapism @ClasslessVol agreed. but some of the matchups were favorable by design. as i recall, beilein, juwan, and dusty all beat rick barnes teams…

My favorite part of Michigan fans is that they’re using the past to cope over Juke Harris. They don’t want to talk about the future. Because they know the future of college basketball is located in Knoxville, Tennessee

@MGesque @ClasslessVol Dusty is the guy I was hoping for if Barnes retired. Oh well…enjoy that guy. Great coach.

@CaptainPriapism @ClasslessVol beilein beat cuonzo, i stand corrected. but juwan beat Barnes as did Dusty.

@MGesque @ClasslessVol Pearl was fired after that game due to the BBQ thing. The team had quit. Had that game been played in November, it would have been a rout for the Vols. We destroyed Georgetown and Villanova that same month. Then the news hit…

@CaptainPriapism @ClasslessVol Beilein also beat Pearl, IIRC.

@MGesque @ClasslessVol The only bewildering game for me is when we had Kennedy Chandler and lost. Barnes shat the bed that day. The rest of the games I acknowledge Michigan was better. This past team was a juggernaut. I mean there was nothing anyone can do. This could be the strongest Vols team ever.

@Cxmpetition You can tell Mara has PTSD from the ass beating he took from us at UCLA.

Definitely not posting this because of a recent crystal ball on Juke Harris

@Jurianthusiast @BobbyVortex And don’t forget Lundblade. Only best 3 point shooter in the country besides the guy that was at Iowa State that we shut down.

@BobbyVortex They’ve gotten Myles Rubin, Dai Dai Ames, Terrence Hill Jr, Juke Harris (almost), Jalen Haralson all from the portal

If Duke and Tennessee play next year it’ll basically be an NBA game

@MGesque @ClasslessVol I give Michigan credit. No doubt. When we lost to Michigan we saw what we had to do. Spend the damn cash. Michigan has also been fortunate to catch Tennessee in favorable matchups. Pearl’s last team was after the illegal BBQ and we knew it was over. Then you beat Cuonzo. Big deal

@ClasslessVol Rick Barnes is a good coach and Tenn has had some dudes in bball over the years. yet Beilein, Juwan, and Dusty have all managed better success. you may call it M fan “coping” but really it’s just realization that we have a kickass bball program not dependent on Juke Harris.

@maddogg_a2 @ClasslessVol What was the score in the 2002 Citrus Bowl again? I forgot.

@ClasslessVol We’ve own your university since I was a lil kid. It’s ok lil sis. Different levels to this.

@ClasslessVol As a Vol fan, I can take it. Bring the salt to me motherfuckers. I want it to hurt. Because when we do kick that ass if we face off next year it’s going to be all the sweeter. So please continue.

@VoteMarsha @realDailyWire Is there any hope we have she won’t be elected?

Redrawing the lines is essential to making Tennessee America’s conservative leader. The legislature must reconvene as soon as possible. Read my @realDailyWire op-ed here: dailywire.com/news/marsha-bl…

@TorresontheVols @PeteNakos He’s not going to be here people. Forget it. It’s been two days since the visit. Going through the draft process means…. He’s gone. It’s understood Tennessee can offer more and yet no signature.

On3's @PeteNakos has shared his prediction for the Vols to land Wake Forest transfer guard Juke Harris! Harris is the No. 1 player in the On3 transfer portal rankings after averaging 21.4 PPG, 6.5 Reb, & 1.9 assists per game! Would be a a big get for the Orange. 🍊

@BKCN_01 @On3 @PeteNakos Improving his defense is the idea. But he’s not coming here.

@On3 @PeteNakos Not a great choice. Defensive minded coach and he will be competing for touches and shots with the roster they put together. Risking his draft stock.

NEW: On3's @PeteNakos has logged an expert prediction for Tennessee to land Wake Forest transfer guard Juke Harris🍊 Harris is the No. 1 player in the On3 transfer portal rankings. on3.com/news/predictin…

@FOXSportsKnox @ByMikeWilson Please stop. He’s not coming here. Let’s face it, he’s just not wanting to play college basketball.

Tennessee coach Rick Barnes visited Wake Forest transfer wing Juke Harris in California on Wednesday, first reported by @ByMikeWilson 🍊 Tennessee AD Danny White said that coach Barnes was “out recruiting” when asked why Barnes was running late to the Big Orange Caravan in Nashville, Tennessee. Barnes was “recruiting” one of the #Vols top transfer portal targets. “He is trying to get here for the program,” White said on 104.5 The Zone. “He is out recruiting. He is building a roster.” The six-foot-seven, 200 pound wing averaged 21.4 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 1.9 assists on 44.4% shooting in 35 games for the Demon Deacons last season. The North Carolina native is one of the top players in the portal, and was an All-ACC selection this past season. Harris is expected to test the NBA waters, but Tennessee has received multiple predictions to land the coveted transfer this week.

@williampatteson @jordanmoore_21 If this was Duke we’re top 5 minimum. Total horseshit.

How Tennessee Basketball’s roster shapes up in comparison to the rest of College Basketball 🍊 Per ShootyHoops: (w/o Juke) - 28th nationally (w/ Juke) - 12th nationally Per Barttorvik: (w/o Juke) - 21st nationally (w/ Juke) -13th nationally S/O @jordanmoore_21 for sharing

@VolsAboveAll They have roughly the same level of team I’m thinking they had last year only in a different package. Add Juke it’s much better. My issue is, where’s a 7-0 big man that can finish and defend??

This illustrates my concern about the Vols IF they don't land Juke Harris. Well have lost so much production, that, despite a great transfer portal, we haven't necessarily improved from the 3 most recent seasons. Get Juke, and that changes.

@bigbabolat @DailyUofM98 What did Michigan end up paying Thiam?

@CaptainPriapism @DailyUofM98 Ok be serious for a minute, Michigan was offering him in the realm of 3.5 million(yaxel money). Apparently he wants 5 million. Are you happy paying this guy 5 million to come to Tennessee? Doesn't feel like he is worth close to that.

This dude just wants money at this point. Have fun playing for a team whose never made it past the elite 8

@bigbabolat @DailyUofM98 He averaged 21.4 ppg and was double teamed I’m sure. I’m not sure why the NBA would even be a contender here. UM and UT can both be better options for $$$. What’s this guy even thinking?

@bigbabolat @DailyUofM98 It’s a better deal than a guy that can’t stay on the court for 3 mil (Estrella). Honestly, if I could I would trade him for Thiam. We have plenty in the back court. Here again Barnes is back to a missing piece which is why we can’t get to Final 4s. I’m thinking he’s coming at 4+

@DailyUofM98 Those days are gone unfortunately.

@CaptainPriapism NIL is king now. What happened to just going somewhere

@DailyUofM98 $$$…kind of how you constructed your roster, right? Maybe that and a place that values integrity.

@CaptainPriapism Go to the team Michigan belted by 33 in the elite 8 makes sense
