Excited about the basketball game today

Davis leads us in assists and 2nd in steals, but he doesn't score so he sucks

He?s regressed since December. His minutes are down, scoring is non existent, and defense hasn?t been there. I?m not privy to any inside knowledge but it looks like he?s favoring his left arm. He?s got something going on.

Is he off the team? Any update?

I don't care if they played the '96 Bulls and lost by one point in double O.T., they are a terrible team by SEC standards. They're so bad we beat them and dropped 7 or 8 spots in the RPI. Now, I'm not saying we're trash but we're so limited offensively that's it's going to be challenging for us to have the type of season many expected.

Supposedly he's having some "personal issues" so take from that what you will.

Well, we need to enjoy whatever we can do this year because next year is going to be a real challenge for Jans. We lose a ton after this season. Jans is going to really have to work some portal magic.

You sure get defensive whenever anybody criticizes anything about this team which is weird because there is a LOT of room for improvement.

Davis was 3-11 with 1 assist against SC
1-6 with 4 assists against UT
0-2 with 3 assists against Bama
2-4 with 1 assist against UK
0-2 with 1 assist today.

If you are happy with those numbers from your 5th year starting PG I don’t know what to tell you.

You're exactly right MM because next year is going to be ugly.

I'm happy with a sec win that was right on the Vegas line. If you expect us to dominate every opponent, perhaps your expectations are unrealistic. We won at almost exactly the amount we were expected to win... hell, the opening line was 12.5, so we covered that

Spot on! Vandy has played some close losses. What we really need to do is shoot better at the free throw line and not turn the ball over. If we do those two things with our defense we can be dangerous.

100% right.

We beat Tennessee and they're still ranked #6.

Doesn't matter... we only beat vandy by 13, so we're one of the worst sec programs. Ignore the fact that's one of their worst sec losses

Vandy's record sucks but they've been in alot of games they loss. They played Ole Miss well, only lost by 2 against Memphis, only lost by 3 against Bama.... its an SEC win that I'll take

Right. Every sec win in any sport is a good win.

Absolutely. Even a win in football against Vandy is a good win. League wins aren't easy day in and day out.

+12 rebounding
+ assists to To ratio, vandy negative
Shot better from 3 and 2
Both teams were horrible from FT, but we were better

10 is the closest vandy got in the 2nd half
