Point of observation: in the last 3 games, Georgia has played 8 different players total. Meanwhile, Tennessee has lost both Cait McMahan and Vicki Baugh to injuries. Will either team run out of gas by the end of the game? Both? Yet Georgia has wins over both Auburn and Vanderbilt, while Tennessee does not. Can the Lady Vols pull this one off and defend their home court?
Go Ladies! Make history!

Huh. That was weird
The behind the curtain controls said that this had already been published, but I didn’t see it anywhere until I re-published with a new date and time.
Well, anyway. Here we are.
Who’s we?
Go Vols!

No Ted Valentine?
This isn’t basketball!

Well, that's not a good start
Another player injured before the first shot.
Go Vols!

Just went through the old recruiting threads
Football hate in February? Excellent. You know you’re doing something right when the rivals start talking trash, right?

Georgia's coach

Quote from my 12-year-old
Pat Summitt sounds like she’s nice but she sounds like she could really . . .
Go Vols!

Is the game on TV down there?
Im 360’in it. With Dave and I don’t know who the woman is.
by wvvol on Feb 5, 2009 7:42 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
If it was Raycom
Her name would be Dave.
Go Vols!

And the player of the game
would be Tyler Green.
Go Vols!

I love that Briana Bass was guarding the inbounds.
All 5’2" of her.

Hey, Alabama / Vandy is on ESPN2.
I’ll skip ahead to the joke.

Two more down
Attrition is becoming a real problem.

For the season, though?
I heard Baugh and …someone else… are out for the season. Did I miss someone else?

He was mixing it up in the student section
Go Vols!
by Joel on Feb 5, 2009 8:35 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Was he wearing his Wyoming brown?
That would’ve been the easy way to spot him.
by Graysnail on Feb 5, 2009 8:38 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Orange hoody
Holding up one finger. I think he was trying to keep Mike Slive at bay.
Go Vols!

Just waiting for the celebration
Sometimes they’re more fun than the event.
Think National Signing Day.
Go Vols!

Speaking of which
Apparently the NSD conference is archived on Yahoo.
by Graysnail on Feb 5, 2009 8:55 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
If I was an evil person
I’d figure out a way to link the conference in every post I make on ‘Bama boards, but a) I’m not that evil (okay, that’s a lie) and b) I don’t really want to post on any Bama boards.
by Graysnail on Feb 5, 2009 9:00 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Well that was nice
Congrats to Pat.
This has sort of been hooper’s baby, so I’ll let him wrap it up when he gets back.
Go Vols!

Didn't get to join in the live thread...
But, a belated “woo” is better than no “woo” at all…
