Xavier's first three buckets were point-blank putbacks.
Cuonzo's not pleased with his big men, and he shouldn't be.

I dont know if it's the way Cuonzo uses Stokes, or Stokes himself but it never looks like its done right when he is on the floor

I think Richardson could be a capable scorer if he tried more

Xavier clobbering Vols 20-10 on the glass. That's surprising.

UT giving up 52% OR rate to a smaller Xavier team.

Xavier 21, Vols 15, 4:25/1stH.
Vols make quick run, Xavier counters.
Impressive stuff from the X-Men.

I know this isn't a topic for midgame, but I don't see Stokes as anywhere near NBA ready.

I really like Derek Reese.. He is actually driving and dishing and making basketball plays that this team just doesn't seem to make

Could be that's why he's in even after Cuonzo indicated he wouldn't be playing today.

I'm not a Tennessee bball fan and have only caught 2 or 3 games, and he is not an NBA player yet. Still to raw. Physically he is, but he is not a smooth player yet, that comes with experience...
Also, Tennessee may have the worst half court offense in the country. Do they run plays? I always see people standing around.
Chris Mack is schooling Cuonzo right now.

UK lost to the Ville. Calipari has a set of pros he hasn't figured out how to win with yet.

I agree Drizz. I see no evidence they even know what a play is.

HALFTIME IN KNOXVILLE: Xavier 25, Tennessee 21.
Vols in OK shape, though. This should be worse than it is.

I'm watching random bowl games instead. We are awful to watch right now. Kevin oneil years, but worse. Hopefully Hubbs can't spark the offense. I hate the style of play. Polar opposite of pearl.

It is definitely boring. Cuonzo needs to hire a new Offensive Coordinator

Vols 2-of-6 from FT line in 1stH, including two front-end, 1-and-1 misses. No bueno.

It has to be painful, otherwise baseball pitchers would just keep on pitching without the Tommy John surgery.
Where's Crockett when you need a medical opinion?
