I look at that 2 ways: 1. it was an unbelievable play at a pivotal time that resulted in a spectacular dunk, 2. it was a horrible play that happened to work out, why make that pass in traffic in a close game?

I hear you. I almost had a heart attack when I saw that but that probably says more about me than about the play itself.

I just watched the highlights (see below). He actually left it for Nick Jacob who was trailing the play and it laid it in for the And-1.
Also, two other plays that stood out to me that I forgot to mention:
1. At the 1:03 mark, the block by James White on their Alley Oop attempt.
2. At the 0:52 mark, the shot-fake, two dribbles to the left, knock down the 18 fter from Adam Smith.
The shot block by White was just a super athletic play..Seems that he is good for one or two jaw dropping moments per game.
The move by Adam Smith was noteworthy just because we haven't seen anything that pretty around here from a guard in quite some time.

This team is the best case scenario so far (vs my very low expectations).

Alright, someone send this to the GT fanboy site run by the North Koreans to get me re-instated so I can get banned again shortly after.

I think Chuck Mitchell's breakaway take-off from the foul line deserves its own thread
If I'm his teammate I'm finding a way to .gif that.

I'd estimate there were ~600 students there? Bad timing for a game on a Monday night and busiest week of the year for most students
Total attendance was only 5467 according to KQ and he claims about half were Vols fans, although I'd say it wasn't quite that high. Maybe closer to a third? With the way Vols fans travel, when theres only 5000 total fans in the arena, obviously a high percentage of them are going to be Vols fans.
Guess we'll need to string some more wins together before people start coming back. No reason the arena should have been only half full last night
Might need to string together YEARS of wins to get people back. People have gotten anesthetized to GT hoops.

This is kinda sorta the case for me personally. (Hate me if you must.) I still will watch them and root for them and may get to a couple of games this year, but haven't thought twice about resuming my season ticket purchase until I can see a brighter outlook for the program beyond one year (this one) where people say we *might* be a bubble team. And almost universally everyone expects next year to be worse (for sound logical reasons).
Signing a really big name recruit would have helped considerably...but that does not appear to be who we are anymore in basketball.
