Around SBN: NFL Players Ready To Welcome Gay Teammate

Tennessee Basketball Exhibition vs. Carson-Newman Live Thread

The men's basketball live threads return tonight as the Cuonzo Martin Era opens with an exhibition battle against Carson-Newman.  The game will be streamed live at UTSports.com with a 7:00 PM ET tipoff.

The Vols will roll with old faces in the starting lineup:  sophomore Trae Golden at point, sophomore Jordan McRae (now wearing #52) and senior Cameron Tatum at guard, ad juniors Kenny Hall and Jeronne Maymon at forward.  Martin wants to run a nine man rotation, so keep an eye on playing time off the bench, where you'll likely see returning players Skylar McBee and Renaldo Woolridge (now wearing #3) up first.  True freshman Wes Washpun (#4 - CHI$$LE!) should be the backup point guard.

New faces and jersey numbers:  freshmen guard Josh Richardson (#1), guard Quinton Chievous (#31), center Yemi "Can I just call you Yemi?" Mankanjuola (#0), and juco forward Dwight Miller (#25).  And hey:  Tyler Summitt may still get some action.

(You could also use this as a Thursday Night Football thread, but I mean, you should probably watch this instead of Florida State/Boston College.)

Go Vols.

Three weeks late, but it's finally here!

The Guessing Game Updated standings for Joel to see, sometime, since I’m too busy (and too lazy) to open gmail.
 
For the record, I think Birdjam has won 7 of the 8 haikus to date, so he’s got 9 “normal” points — I mention it because he said he’d prefer the points for the Haiku not to count. But I still say go for it, because his haiku-skills are crazy good.

I should be listening in to the feed tonight, but probably won’t be able to do too much watching.

near the end, my snap judgements:

*Pearl’s last recruiting class will save our bacon. McRae and Trae are far and away our best players.

*Maymon is a force on the glass. Again. Offensive game looks mildly improved, as do FTs. We’ll see what happens against real opponents.

*Cam? Cam?

*Three point shooting and FT shooting will still be inconsistent.

*We don’t have a consistent scorer inside.

*Yemi Power will be awesome when he figures out what’s going on. Very, very raw, but crazy athletic.

*Woolridge still isn’t great, but he’s added a new dimension to his game: not jacking up threes.

Hipster Miami is beating Akron 28-0...

and Tulsa is up 10-7 on UCF.

Neither of these things are surprising

Yeah, that worried me a bit.

But both teams are on 4 days rest, which seriously favors FSU. And FSU’s problems came primarily due to a QB change because of injury. After a couple games, they seemed to reorganize.

and Tulsa with the biggest WTF play in a while...

Tailback was going to get tackled for a loss, and it looks like he tried to throw a shovel pass and tossed it right to a LB.

by Caban on Nov 3, 2011 9:27 PM EDT up reply actions  

if you're going to get tackled for a loss

chuck it out of bounds. what’s the worst that can happen? but don’t chuck it into a crowd.

Ineligible downfield I guess...

assuming the refs are even paying attention to the linemen at that point

ineligible downfield gets you a repeat the down

which is better than a loss and a loss of down

Wow...

Refs overturn a 4th down conversion for Tulsa on very tenuous evidence.
Always find it odd how some refs always try and get the actual call correct, and some live and breathe the indisputable evidence rule.
