“I know this -- There’s a good-looking guy with white hair looking down on us right now that’s happy!”
Tommy Lloyd pays his respects to the legendary Lute Olson.
Why does Nate Ament wear #10? Because of one of his favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10.
I asked him why that verse and how he leans on his faith during this time.
"That verse kind of calms me down knowing that God is my strength." #Vols
“I wish at [my player’s] age, I would’ve gone much deeper into a relationship with Jesus Christ… To me, the most important thing is to God with all my heart, soul, & mind.”

Nate Ament: "It's one of the reasons I chose Tennessee because of Coach Barnes and his faith. ... as a team, you're trying to glorify something bigger than yourself. And, ultimately, something that is Jesus Christ and is God can only lead to good things. When you're playing for something other than your own glory and the glory of others, the glory of your teammates, the glory of Christ, only good things can happen from there if you're being selfless and trying to take care of each other."
This is a trash offensive game plan by Iowa, dribbling straight into the towering orange Eastern European trees
They need to jump shoot the sh*t out of this zone or they’re done @TCEonSGPN
Rick Barnes is a Legend and for him to have this to say about Tennessee shows what kind of place it is
“Of all the places I've been, Tennessee is the most electric place I've ever been."
Big opportunity tonight against Iowa State
