The AP and ESPN polls were released today for college basketball. Tennessee is ranked #11 and #10, so we have some high expectations, hopefully they can live up to them. Super pumped about tomorrow night's exhibition against North Alabama, even though I am way up in Ohio, lol.

I love college basketball.

So do I. The Longhorns had the best recruting class by far this year,and it is going to show. Not to mention, getting Jai Lucas, a point guard who transfered from Florida and shot 43% from three point range. They're preseason #3, and expectations are sky high. Starting lineup should look like this:

Douge Balbay-Sophmore
Avery Bradley-Freshmen
Jordan Hamilton-Freshmen
Damion James-Senior
Dexter Pittman-Senior

If Kansas doesn't win it all that will be a shame.

Anyways, Go Pokes!

Same.

I've been a Kansas Jayhawks fan longer than I've been a fan of any other sports teams besides the St. Louis Cardinals.

I'm not gonna lie, I was suprised to see KU atop the polls as the preseason #1.

Narrow escape against Memphis last night, 57-55 W.

Tennessee looked good I must say....can't wait for Jan. 10

It's gonna be an epic game. Sadly, I won't be there

Big day for Tennessee as Tobias Harris is announcing is college choice for next year. UT is expected to be the choice, but no one is for sure as the Harris' have been very secretive about their recruitment.

Tobias Harris is the #5 player in the country and expected to be a one and done. He has been compared to Carmel Anthony. He is a big man who can do it all shoot, handle, post-up, etc.

That honor obviously belongs to Kentucky. Not only did they have the #1 overall recruit, but they had the #2 overall recruit as well! That is unheard of, not to mention 4/6 of their recruits are 5 star recruits who were in the top 50.

Brandon Knight, currently the #1 overall recruit on rivals (as you probably know), is still undecided and has high interest in Kansas (! !) along side a few other schools. Just gotta hope for the best, lol.

Harris is ALL VOL!!!

Good job by Tennessee!!

After a great win against Memphis, 4 Tennessee players were arrested for possession of weed and weapons.

2 players, including Tyler Smith charged with felonies.


Happy new year.

I remember hearing that. Hopefully we can still have a great showdown this Sunday.

Yea, it's gonna take a huge effort today for the Vols to stay competitive. I think they can though.

Should be a fun game!

33-33 @ HALF

This is turning out to be a great game! Cole Aldrich is looking really really good on the boards.

Fantastic game. I knew we would get destroyed inside as we have all year, but they are hanging tough.

We have 3 walk-ons on the floor right now with Chism and Prince out with 4 fouls.

Wow.

The tide is turning!!

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

V,B!!!!

And Texas goes down!!

Kansas moves up to #2.

Or maybe not....?

KU back up to the top!!

Texas has just planned sucked lately. I think KU will roll over them.


Tennessee has a brutal week. At Vandy and at Kentucky.
