Who is the last truly 'elite' guard that has gone to Tennessee and flourished?


CP3? We've all been told repeatedly that she plays all five positions. Wink

Harper and the team are both plagued by playing a really, really challenging schedule, when they shouldn't have booked so tough.

Their losses (with NET ranking) are to:
UConn (2)
LSU (3)
Stanford (4)
Indiana (5)
Ohio St (13)

Virginia Tech (22)
UCLA (25)
Gonzaga (3Cool

No bad losses, and those first five have been five of the best ten teams in the country all year. The other two big underachievers (according to preseason rankings), Texas and Louisville, have losses to multiple teams ranked lower in NET.

Has the season been (a bit) disappointing? Yeah. Is it as bad as their record suggests? I don't think so.

(As an aside, and to continue my semi-rant about NET, not sure how Texas' resume is worthy of being ranked 10.)
They have now lost to a bad Miss. St. team so things are not getting better.

Everybody has a bad night now and then.
