“QUOTABLE”
Donnie Tyndall, Feb. 3
“Our team’s margin of error is so small. If we don’t have the right mentality and we are not on razor’s edge, there is no one in our league we can beat. That is just where it is.”
MEMORABLE VOL PERFORMANCES AGAINST KENTUCKY • Chris Lofton reeled off 31 points, Major Wingate scored 12 and current Indiana Pacers point guard C.J. Watson added 10 as No. 11 Tennessee beat Kentucky 75-67 at Rupp Arena on Feb. 7, 2006. • Beating the Wildcats was three times as nice during the 1978-79 season. UT notched program win No. 900 in Lexington on Jan. 20, 66-55, before topping UK 101-84 in Knoxville on Feb. 17. Then the Vols won the 1979 SEC Tournament with a 75-69 win over UK in Birmingham, Ala. on March 3. Current Vol Network radio analyst Bert Bertelkamp was UT’s point guard that season. • As Bernard King walked off the court at Memorial Gym after a deflating 88-82 loss on Jan. 13, 1975, a Kentucky fan flipped a lit cigarette into the Tennessee legend’s hair. Outraged, King vowed he would never lose to Kentucky again. He vigorously carried out that promise, finishing his career 5-1 against the Wildcats.
SERIES NOTES LAST MEETING WITH KENTUCKY • Tennessee once again battled hard at Rupp Arena, but for the eighth year in a row, the Vols suffered a loss on Kentucky’s home floor. Tennessee lost to the 13th-ranked Wildcats, 74-66, on Jan. 18, 2014. • The Vols led for nearly the entire first half and were within two possessions for the first 9:27 of the second half, but Kentucky took control of the game midway through the second. • Jarnell Stokes had a monster game for the Vols as he tallied 20 points and grabbed 15 rebounds for his ninth double-double this season. Jordan McRae added 17 points while Jeronne Maymon scored 12 . • The Wildcats were a near perfect 23-of-24 from the foul line, making their first 17 attempts in the game. • Tennessee cut the deficit to six two times in the final minute but was unable to overcome Kentucky’s near-perfect free-throw shooting. • Kentucky finished the game 7-of-16 for 44 percent on 3-pointers after coming into the game shooting 30.5 from beyond the arc. • Tennessee dominated the glass all game, out-rebounding Kentucky, 39-24. • Kentucky’s twin guards, Andrew Harrison (26) and Aaron Harrison (14), combined for 40 points while Julius Randle notched 18. • Wildcats freshman James Young was held to just eight points and one rebound in 36 minutes. • Randle went on to be the seventh overall pick in the NBA Draft. Young was selected 17th overall.
• The Kentucky series is UT’s oldest and most-played among SEC opponents. The Vols and Wildcats first met on Feb. 5, 1910, and have clashed 217 times over the years. • Since the AP poll was established, an unranked UT team has beaten a ranked Kentucky team 17 times. • No program in college basketball has logged more wins over Kentucky than Tennessee (67). • In seven of the last eight meetings in this series, the team that wins the rebounding battle has won the game (last season’s game in Lexington being the exception). • Kentucky is one of only three SEC schools (along with Alabama and Missouri) to lead its all-time series against the Volunteers. • Four Tennessee All-Americans were Kentucky natives: Allan Houston, Chris Lofton, Danny Schultz and Paul “Lefty” Walther.
VOLS STAFF HAS KENTUCKY TIES • Tennessee’s basketball staff includes four Kentucky natives in assistant coaches Chris Shumate and Beau Braden (both from Louisville), director of player development J.T. Burton (Springfield) and video coordinator Ty Proffitt (London). • Three of them played college basketball in the Bluegrass State, as Shumate played at Murray State (1999-04), Braden played at Centre College in Danville (2005-09) and Proffitt played for Donnie Tyndall at Morehead State (2010-12). • Burton was the head coach at NAIA St. Catharine College in St. Catharine, Ky., from 2008-14.
35.7
» Josh Richardson plays 35.7 minutes per game. The last time a Vol averaged at least 35 minutes in a season was C.J. Watson (35.8 mpg) in 2002-03.
DID
YOU KNOW? Tyndall is a Sneakerhead
Donnie Tyndall has a vast personal collection of close to 500 pairs of sneakers. “I’ve always been a shoe fanatic,” Tyndall said. “I remember my mom and dad would give me a hundred dollars the week before school started and I had to make that work for my clothes. So usually it was three pairs of jeans and three shirts. But one year, they gave me a hundred bucks and the brand-new Jordans came out like the day before and I spent all hundred bucks on those.”
DT Likes Gators?!
Ever since he was a kid, Donnie Tyndall has been fascinated by alligators. He particularly enjoyed watching TV shows about gators. When he was the head coach at Southern Miss, his family surprised him with an actual pet alligator. The gator’s name: Alley-oop. Tyndall eventually had to say goodbye to Alley-oop. The only gator folks in Knoxville approve of is fried gator!
UT Roster Boasts Potential Olympian
If Puerto Rico qualifies for the 2016 Olympics, Vols junior Derek Reese may be boarding a flight to Rio. Reese, whose grandparents, Anselmo and Irma Montañez, were born in Puerto Rico, is active in that country’s national program. He played for Puerto Rico’s Men’s National “B” Team at the 2013 FIBA Stankovic Continental Champions Cup in China.
Michiganders Abound at Tennessee
Each of Tennessee’s “big three” athletic programs prominently feature a Michigan native on the coaching staff. Donnie Tyndall is a native of Grand Rapids. Head football coach Butch Jones hails from Saugatuck. And longtime assistant women’s basketball coach Dean Lockwood is from Bay City.

TENNESSEE BASKETBALL HISTORY vs. TOP-RANKED TEAMS
“QUOTABLE”
Chris Dortch, Blue Ribbon “(Armani) Moore looks like the village blacksmith, or a strong safety who wandered onto the wrong playing field. In the NBA combine, they make potential draft picks lift 185 pounds. Anywhere around 15 repetitions is an impressive number. Moore has hoisted 185 17 times, high among his teammates.”
TYNDALL’S WIFE WAS A WILDCAT • Tennessee head coach Donnie Tyndall’s wife, Nikki, was a member of the women’s basketball team at Kentucky from 1999-2001. • Nikki, a native of Ashland, Ky., graduated from Paul Blazer High School, where she helped her school to two state tournament appearances and earned AllState accolades. • She later played at Transylvania University in Lexington, helping lead that school to its most successful season in history as the team recorded the most consecutive wins in a season and most overall wins in a season. The team qualified for its first NAIA National Tournament and posted a win in the first round. • She earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration with a minor in marketing from Transylvania in 2003. • The Tyndalls were married Aug. 2, 2014, in a gulfside ceremony on the beach in Destin, Fla.
HISTORIC RIVALRY TAKES A HIT • Last year, for the first season since 1952-53, Tennessee did not host border rival and SEC foe Kentucky in Knoxville. • And this year, the Volunteers do not play the Wildcats in Lexington (also a first since 1953). • In years in which both programs had active teams,
last year was the first since 1922 that the Vols didn’t face UK in Knoxville. Tennessee did not have a team in 1943-44 (WWII), and Kentucky canceled its season in 1952-53 (NCAA violations). • When the SEC’s new 14-team, 18-game schedule was introduced for the 2012-13 campaign, each team was designated one “permanent opponent.” Those teams play a home-and-home series every year. • Tennessee’s permanent opponent is Vanderbilt. Kentucky’s is Florida.
BIG ORANGE THORN IN CAL’S SIDE • Since UK coach John Calipari returned to the college game in 2000-01, Tennessee has dealt him six losses. No other program has more wins over Calipari-coached teams during that span. TEAM WINS TENNESSEE 6 Louisville 6 Cincinnati 5 Ole Miss 4 Southern Miss 4
REBOUNDING KEY IN THIS SERIES • Last year’s Tennessee-Kentucky game was the first time in the series’ last eight meetings in which the team that won the rebounding battle lost the game.
• Tennessee is 4-12 all-time against the No. 1-ranked team in the Associated Press poll. • Of those 16 previous meetings with the AP’s topranked team, Kentucky has been the opponent 10 times. • The Volunteers are 4-4 in their last eight games against the No. 1 team in the nation, that includes two wins in their last four tries. • Tennessee’s victories over America’s top teams have come against: Kentucky (69-62 on March 5, 1966 in Knoxville), South Carolina (55-54 on Dec. 6, 1969, in Columbia), Memphis (66-62 on Feb. 23, 2008, in Memphis) and Kansas (76-68 on Jan. 10, 2010, in Knoxville). • UT’s most recent clash against a No. 1 team came at last year’s SEC Tournament in Atlanta, as the Vols fell to top-ranked Florida, 56-49.
ROCKY TOP STUMBLING BLOCK • Many college basketball experts are predicting a Kentucky national championship. Thus, it’s interesting to note that Tennessee has twice handed a team headed to the NCAA title game its only regular season loss of the season. • In 1966, Tennessee beat undefeated Kentucky, 69-62, in Knoxville (in what was the final game in Armory Fieldhouse). It was UK’s only loss heading into the national final game vs. Texas Western. The Wildcats lost, 72-65, to the Miners in the title game. • In 2008, Tennessee triumphed at undefeated Memphis, 66-62. It was the Tigers’ only loss heading into the national championship game vs. Kansas. Memphis lost to Kansas, 75-68 (OT), in the title game.
UT TO FACE 20 TOP-150 RPI TEAMS • Of Tennessee’s 30 regular-season games, 20 of them project to be against teams rated in the top 100 of the official NCAA RPI.

FAST BREAK During his two years at Southern Miss, coach Donnie Tyndall led the Golden Eagles to 27 total wins away from home (away/neutral site).
TYNDALL’S TEAMS HAVE TYPICALLY BEEN TOUGH AT HOME • Over the last three seasons (dating to start of 201213), Donnie Tyndall’s teams are 36-5 in regularseason home games (27-1 at Southern Miss; 9-4 at Tennessee). • This season has been an anomaly of sorts, as Tyndall’s squad has lost twice as many home games this year (4) as they did the previous two years combined (2). • Tyndall’s teams have won 21 consecutive regularseason home games against non-conference opponents, dating to a 57-56 loss to South Dakota Dec. 10, 2011, at Morehead State.
J-RICH AN OFFENSIVE CATALYST • Vols senior Josh Richardson plays a direct role in 39.8 percent of Tennessee’s total team scoring. • The team leader in both scoring and assists, Richardson has scored 385 points, and his 88 assists have led to 228 points. • Translated to percentages, Richardson scores 25 percent of UT’s points, and assists on 14.8 percent more points. • When examining Tennessee’s 3-point baskets this season, Richardson has made or assisted on 54.9 percent of them (77 0f 140).
J-RICH COLD-BLOODED AT FOUL LINE • Senior point guard Josh Richardson is 24-for-28 at the foul line over UT’s last six games (.857). • Richardson has proven to be especially clutch at the line in crunch time this season, as he is shooting .844 (27-of-32) in the final four minutes of regulation and overtime. • Richardson is shooting .796 from the free-throw line in SEC play.
RICHARDSON AMONG SEC’s ELITE • Josh Richardson is the only player in the SEC to rank among the league’s active career top-10 in points, blocks, steals and assists. • Richardson ranks third in points (1,124), fourth in steals (131), sixth in assists (219) and seventh in blocks (84).

PG COMPARISON: J-RICH vs. WATSON
“They did some of the things we normally do to people, and that’s turn them over. That was a big statistic in the game, they turned us over and turned those turnovers into points.
• Regarded as the last “true point guard” to play for Tennessee, C.J. Watson is now in his eighth NBA season. A comparison of Watson’s stats as a senior in 2005-06 and current Vols point guard Josh Richardson’s senior stats reveals how well Richardson has adapted to his new role.

*Watson was a 2006 second-team All-SEC selection (AP, Coaches)
NOBODY DOES MOORE • Junior “human multi-tool” Armani Moore is one of the SEC’s most versatile players, and he is thriving under first-year UT head coach Donnie Tyndall. • Moore has started every game, has four doubledoubles and leads the Vols in rebounding (6.8 rpg, eighth in the SEC), offensive rebounding (2.7 orpg) and blocks (1.3 bpg). • Moore has set career-highs in every statistical category already this season. • His plus/minus rating (per 40 minutes) is the best on the team: +6.55
TENNESSEE IS... 9-0 when the Vols get to the free-throw line more than their opponent.
12-2 when team co-captains Josh Richardson and
Armani Moore combine for at least four steals
10-1 when leading at halftime. 8-2 when the Vols hold their opponent to fewer than 60 points.
2-5 in SEC play when it is out-rebounded 0-4 when its opponent shoots 50 percent or better.

MOORE CRASHING OFFENSIVE GLASS
#1 Josh Richardson
• In SEC play, 6-5 junior Armani Moore ranks fourth in the league with 3.0 offensive rebounds per game. • If the season ended today, Moore’s 2.71 orpg would stand as the seventh-best single-season total in program history.
“I’m the nicest guy in the world off the court. But when I get inside that 94, I’m not nice anymore.”

Tyndall: “The nuts and bolts of it are Louisville’s matchup zone. And we just tweaked some things. Even (after Kenneth Faried left Morehead State), I liked it so much we stayed with it.” “QUOTABLE”
Jay Bilas, ESPN “If I were coaching in college now, I would give an awful lot of consideration to playing a zone as a primary defense. I really do think (teams have to) spend so much time preparing for (that zone), that you might not be as proficient in doing what you do. Teams like Syracuse and Louisville, they can really take teams out of what they do and force them to play your way. You’re making a team play in a manner they don’t usually play or want to play. So I think Donnie’s system will work really well if he gets the right personnel.”

TENNESSEE BASKETBALL
“DO WHAT YOU DO, AND DO IT WELL.” THE BIRTH OF TYNDALL’S ZONE • In 2007, with a young Kenneth Faried on his roster at Morehead State, Donnie Tyndall was racking his brain for a way to keep Faried close to the basket on defense. The future NBA All-Star was such a force in the paint in the OVC that opponents went to great lengths to lure him out of the paint. • One common tactic saw opposing teams simply take their center and use him to set ball-screens out front, effectively sacrificing their own big man to try and neutralize Faried. • Said Tyndall: “What teams we’re doing to Kenneth Faried was the biggest impetus for me moving to the matchup zone. He was constantly getting dragged out 25 feet from the rim, hedging ball screens, and good coaches were telling their five men to do that, to drag him out there and try to wear him down or get him to pick up a cheap foul.” • “So protecting Kenneth was the main reason for going in that direction initially, but it’s just continued to evolve over the years as we’ve changed things and tweaked different things inside the scheme. We’ve changed some rules about how we’ve guarded certain actions after seeing some things we didn’t respond well to.”
FAST BREAK In the semifinals of the Orlando Classic, Tennessee forced 11th-ranked Kansas to make 11 second-half turnovers (16 total).
“QUOTABLE”
Drew Kelly, former player
“The general principles aren’t difficult to learn, because it’s just like man. Where it’s different is that your help is all based on zone principles with rules and scripts for every kind of situation.”
WINNING THE TURNOVER BATTLE • UT has forced more turnovers than it has committed in 15 of its 24 games this season. • UT’s +2.6 turnover margin (all games) ranks third in the SEC. • The Vols force opponents into 14.8 turnovers per game while committing 12.3.
STEALS PREVALENT IN TYNDALL’S SYSTEM • The aggressive, matchup-zone defensive system employed by coach Donnie Tyndall led to both of his Southern Miss teams ranking among the Division I leaders in steals each of the past two seasons. • In 2012-13, Southern Miss ranked fifth nationally with an average of 9.6 steals per game. In 2013-14, Tyndall’s Conference USA championship team ranked 17th nationally with 8.2 steals per game. • In all games this season, Tennessee averages 8.0 steals per game, which ranks 30th nationally. • Junior guard Kevin Punter has nabbed at least four steals four different times, and he had a season-high six steals at Georgia (2/7/15).
TAKING CHARGE
QUICK DEFENSIVE NOTES • Tennessee has drawn 22 total charges this season. • UT also has forced eight shot-clock violations and one 10-second call. • The Vols forced Georgia into committing 20 turnovers in Athens (2/7/15). • Senior Josh Richardson had a career-high six steals in UT’s upset win over 15th-ranked Butler (12/14/14). • The Vols held Kansas State without a field goal for a span of 11:27 during the first half of UT’s win over the Wildcats (12/6/14). • UT also forced 22 turnovers against K-State while logging 12 steals and nine blocks. Armani Moore had five of those blocks, marking a career-high. • Tennessee forced 15th-ranked VCU to commit 18 turnovers when the teams met to open the season at The Veterans Classic at the U.S. Naval Academy (11/14/14). • SEC All-Defensive Team member Josh Richardson blocked three shots in the opener vs. VCU. • Three Vols logged multiple steals in UT’s homeopening win over Texas Southern (11/20/14). • In limiting Mercer to 15 first-half points (11/22/14), the Vols had their best defensive half since leading Presbyterian, 43-13, on Dec. 18, 2012. UT held the Bears to .182 shooting as a team in the first half; Mercer did not make a field goal for the final 9:48 of the half.12/22/14
• Junior forward Armani Moore owns the team lead for charges drawn this season with five. • Moore is Tennessee’s active leader in charges drawn, with 13 in his career. • As a team, UT has taken 22 charges this season.
10:04 SCORELESS! During Tennessee’s 64-57 victory over Santa Clara in the opening round of the 2014 Orlando Classic at ESPN’s Wide World of Sports, the Volunteers held the Broncos scoreless for a span 10:04. The drought spanned the final 27 seconds of the first half and the first 9:37 of the second half. During that stretch, Santa Clara went 0-for-8 from the floor and committed three turnovers.
RICHARDSON KNOWN FOR DEFENSE • Given the emphasis that coach Donnie Tyndall places on defense, it’s fitting that Tennessee’s best player and team co-captain, senior Josh Richardson, has built a reputation as an elite defender. • Richardson made the 2014 SEC All-Defensive Team as a junior. • Richardson is seven blocks shy of breaking into UT’s all-time top-10 list for career blocks. He needs 90 to tie for 10th, and he currently has 83. • He has a pair of three-block games this season, and in UT’s win over 15th-ranked Butler (12/14/14), he logged a career-high six steals (one shy of the school record). • Richardson leads the SEC with 2.1 steals per game this season. • Richardson also has eight games this season in which he’s nabbed at least three steals (UT is 5-3 in those contests).
“QUOTABLE”
Gary Parrish, CBSsports.com “Josh Richardson got a lot of attention last March based on him averaging 19 points per game in the NCAA Tournament while UT made the Sweet Sixteen. But his best attribute, the one that might give him a chance to play in the NBA, is his ability to guard on the perimeter. He’s 6-foot-6 and active with long arms. Just a terrific piece for Donnie Tyndall to inherit.”

McGHEE OUT WITH FOOT INJURY
DONNIE TYNDALL’S FIRST TENNESSEE TEAM IS OVERACHIEVING.
• UT’s already thin frontcourt was dealt a major blow Dec. 17 at NC State, when freshman Jabari McGhee (4.4 ppg, 3.8 rpg) suffered a right foot injury. He had surgery Dec. 19 and is expected to be sidelined for a minimum of six weeks. • McGhee led the Vols in field-goal percentage (.700), and was the team’s second-leading offensive rebounder (2.3 oprg) while playing 13.9 minutes per game. • Donnie Tyndall announced Jan. 5 that there is a high probability of McGhee not returning this season and instead taking a redshirt.
Notes on UT’s Youth & Inexperience The Vols have 10 healthy scholarship players (including former walk-on Galen Campbell, who was just placed on scholarship Jan. 9) True freshmen have combined to make 21 starts for this Tennessee team.
ROSTER BREAKDOWN • The Vols’ 2014-15 roster features 14 players (11 scholarship student-athletes) representing eight states. • There are four Vols who hail from the state of Tennessee, three from Georgia, and a pair of players from Florida. Alabama, Kentucky, Maryland, New York and Oklahoma also are represented. • Tennessee has three seniors, five juniors, one sophomore and five freshmen. • Eight Vols stand 6-5 or shorter, and six players are 6-6 or taller.
FRESHMEN PLAYING BIG ROLE Five of Tennessee’s top eight contributors (in terms of minutes per game) have one season of Division I experience or less.
• True freshmen Willie Carmichael III (15.7 mpg), Detrick Mostella (13.1 mpg) and Tariq Owens (7.4 mpg) all are playing significant roles for the Vols. • Tennessee has started multiple true freshmen in four games this season. • True freshmen are combining to average 39.3 minutes per game and have combined to make 21 starts. • Last season, Tennessee freshmen accounted for only 11 starts all year, and the Vols never started multiple freshmen in a single game.
There are 200 available minutes to be played in a 40-minute game. Tennessee has seen true freshmen account for an average of 39.3 minutes per game. Entering SEC play, Josh Richardson was the only player on UT’s roster who had ever scored 10 or more points in an SEC game.

Sean Farnham, ESPN/SEC Network “I think (Josh Richardson’s) mid-range game is as good as anybody’s in college basketball. When he gets to that (SEC) logo in the center of the paint and elevates up, he’s almost automatic... (Richardson also) is one of the best on-ball defensive players—not just in the SEC—but maybe in all of college basketball. He really understands how to use his length and how to gap up quicker, smaller guards to keep them at bay.”
UT HAS BEATEN SEVERAL NBA STARS
“THE MANIMAL” IS A TYNDALL PUPIL
• Over the last eight years, several of the NBA’s elite stars who didn’t experience many losses during their college days have tasted defeat at the hands of the Volunteers.
• Kenneth Faried, one of the NBA’s biggest young stars, was recruited and coached by Donnie Tyndall at Morehead State. • This past summer, Faried—known as “The Manimal”—led the U.S. National Team to gold at the FIBA World Cup. • The Denver Nuggets signed Faried to a five-year, $60 million contract extension in October. • Faried’s impressive development under Tyndall shined most during the 2010-11 campaign, as he won his second consecutive OVC Player of the Year award, earned consensus All-American status and broke Tim Duncan’s career NCAA rebounding record before being selected 22nd overall by Denver in the 2011 NBA Draft.

FAST BREAK Tennessee has produced 45 all-time NBA Draft picks, including eight first-rounders. Two Vols were selected in the 2014 NBA Draft, as Jarnell Stokes was picked 35th, and Jordan McRae was taken 58th.
TENNESSEE PART OF 2016 MAUI FIELD • Tennessee will join Chaminade (host school), UConn, Georgetown, North Carolina, Oklahoma State, Oregon and Wisconsin in the 2016 EA SPORTS Maui Invitational field. • It will be UT’s third all-time appearance at the Maui Invitational. The Vols also played in the event in 2004 (fourth place) and 2011 (seventh place).
VOLS PICKED 13th IN SEC • Tennessee was predicted to finish 13th in the 2015 SEC race by an SEC and national media voting panel.
TYNDALL WANTS VOLS TO OVERACHIEVE • First-year head coach Donnie Tyndall has preached a mantra of “overachieving” to his 2014-15 squad. • Tyndall: “(I want our fans to) help us be the most overachieving team in college basketball. That’s our goal. And I don’t want to say that to undersell our talent level or our players, but we need to overachieve this year to have a good year, and our fans need to help us do that.”
VOLS WERE DOWN TO NINE MEN, AND HERE’S HOW IT HAPPENED • Tennessee entered SEC play with just nine healthy scholarship players after starting the season with 12. • Sophomore big man Dominic Woodson transferred out at the semester break after appearing in four games. • Freshman forward Jabari McGhee fractured a bone in his foot Dec. 17 at NC State (out 6-8 weeks). • On Jan. 5, it was announced that graduate transfer point guard Ian Chiles’ season was over due to a nagging right shoulder injury that required surgery. • On Jan. 9, head coach Donnie Tyndall surprised the team by placing Galen Campbell, a fourth-year walk-on guard from Knoxville, on scholarship for the 2015 spring semester. That brought UT’s total number of healthy scholarship players back up to 10.
#SOCIAL DOMINANCE. Tennessee stands among the most-followed college basketball programs across social media platforms, ranking in the top 10 nationally on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. The program’s official Instagram account (@Vol_ Hoops) ranks fifth nationally with 13,153 followers. On Twitter (@Vol_Hoops), Tennessee’s 58,006 followers rank eighth nationally. And the team’s official Facebook page (facebook.com/BallWithTheVols) boasts 139,337 “likes” to rank 10th among all college hoops programs.

Hoops a Priority on Rocky Top The University of Tennessee has invested more than $40 million into its basketball facilities since the end of the 2006-07 campaign. Prior to the 2007-08 season, UT added a basketball-only practice facility and began the first phase of renovations to Thompson-Boling Arena. The $19 million first phase of renovations included the addition of 32 luxury suites that are located in the existing north balcony, a loge area just below the luxury suites that includes 166 side court seats, new seats for the entire arena, a $3 million center-hung scoreboard and concourse refurbishments, such as graphics and other amenities. The Vols’ state-of-the-art basketball practice facility, Pratt Pavilion, houses two full-size gymnasiums, one for each of the men’s and women’s basketball teams, as well as an athletic training room, weight room and film-study room. The athletic department renovated the men’s and women’s basketball offices at the arena during the 2010-11 campaign, creating a new and impressive “front door” for the basketball programs. New to Thompson-Boling Arena last year was the 360-degree LED ribbon board that runs along the bottom of the upper deck. And in March of 2014, TBA became the third college arena to install an LED lighting system (joining Arizona State and Notre Dame).

“I’m a guy that’s up for the challenge. Everywhere I’ve been, we have been the underdog or overlooked in some way, shape or form. I’ll embrace that, and I hope our players will embrace that.

• Tennessee opened the 2014-15 season with an 85-69 defeat at the hands of 15th-ranked VCU Nov. 14 in the Veterans Classic at the U.S. Naval Academy. • The game marked the regular-season debut for Donnie Tyndall as the Vols’ head coach. • Down by as many as 20, Tennessee cut its deficit to eight points on several occasions late in the second half, but couldn’t get any closer. • VCU’s full-court pressure forced the Vols into 19 turnovers, which the Rams converted into 26 points. • Tennessee’s Robert Hubbs III, Kevin Punter and Derek Reese made their first career starts. Despite fouling out, Punter finished with eight points, five rebounds and a gamehigh seven assists. • Vols freshman forward Jabari McGhee grabbed five offensive rebounds. • The game featured 62 total fouls (34 by UT). • Guard Melvin Johnson led the Rams with 23 points, but the Vols held preseason AllAmerican Treveon Graham to 3-of-13 shooting (eight of Graham’s 15 points came at the foul line).

• Tennessee suffered a 67-59 loss to Marquette in the third-place game of the Orlando Classic at HP Field House Sunday. • The Vols were led by Armani Moore, who had the first double-double of his career with 18 points and a career-high 13 rebounds. He was the Vols’ only scorer or rebounder in double-figures. • The Vols came out on fire, scoring the game’s first nine points. But, Tennessee was outscored 67-50 over the final 37 minutes. Marquette led 35-30 at halftime. • Down eight early in the second half, the Vols rallied to within one at 44-43 on Detrick Mostella’s first bucket of the game—a 3-pointer with 10:35 remaining. Duane Wilson then answered for Marquette with consecutive 3-pointers to return the Golden Eagles’ lead to seven, 50-43 with nine minutes left. • Marquette redshirt freshmen Wilson topped the Golden Eagles’ scoring chart with a career-high 30 points as he connected on 5-of-9 from 3-point range.

Junior Kevin Punter added 14 points. Freshman Detrick Mostella scored 13 points on 4-of-8 shooting from 3-point range. The trio combined for 22 points in the second half, as the Vols charged back to tie the game late. • Kansas led 40-33 at halftime. • With the game tied at 62, Kansas reeled off seven consecutive points keyed by a 3-point play by Cliff Alexander as the Jayhawks took a 69-62 lead with 5:15 remaining. • The Jayhawks finished scoring 20 of the game’s final 25 points. • Kansas doubled-up the Vols on the glass, 44-22. • Tennessee forced Kansas into 16 turnovers and turned those into 24 points. • The Jayhawks were led by junior Perry Ellis, who had game-highs of 24 points and 13 rebounds. Freshman Alexander added 16 points.
• Tennessee’s defense keyed a big non-conference victory, as the Vols took down Kansas State, 65-64, Dec. 6, in the SEC/Big 12 Challenge. • Kansas State’s Marcus Foster (game-high 23 points) nailed four 3-pointers in the final 57 seconds to nearly bring the Wildcats back after a 10-point deficit in the final minute. But the Vols held on for Donnie Tyndall’s first-career win over a Big 12 team. • K-State committed 22 turnovers as the Vols came away with 12 steals. The 22 turnovers were the most by a Vols’ opponent since North Carolina A&T had 34 in 2009. Tennessee also blocked nine shots. • Senior Josh Richardson led the Vols with 17 points.

Freshmen Willie Carmichael III had the best game in his young career with nine points and six rebounds. • Kansas State was within five at 50-45 with 6:22 remaining, but the Wildcats missed their next three shots and turned the ball over three times in a span of two minutes as the Vols took advantage. • In holding K-State to 17 points at the half, the Vols had their best defensive first half since leading Presbyterian, 43-13, on Dec. 18, 2012.

• Tennessee opened a four-game holiday homestand with a 61-58 victory over Tennessee Tech Dec. 19 at Thompson-Boling Arena. The Vols improved to 4-0 at home on the year. • The Vols rallied from a halftime deficit to win for the third time in nine games. The contest was tight throughout, with 10 lead changes and seven ties. • Josh Richardson topped the Vols’ scoring chart for the eighth time in nine games with 19 points. Devon Baulkman scored a season-best 10 points for the second game in a row. • Down by six at halftime, Tennessee rallied to retake a lead with about nine minutes left. The game was within four points for more than 12 minutes until a Baulkman 3-point play put the Vols ahead 58-51 with 54.7 remaining. That was UT’s second 3-point play in less than a minute and proved to be the back-breaker for Tech. • Richardson scored six consecutive points to put the Vols up 50-46 with six minutes remaining. After TTU’s Josiah Moore scored to end the spurt, UT junior Kevin Punter hit a short jumper to put the Vols up 52-48 with 3:54 left. • The Vols held the Eagles scoreless for a span of 5:07 in the first half, but Tech closed the first half on a 9-0 run to lead 32-26 at halftime. • Tennessee Tech’s Dwan Jackson had a double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds.

• In a rematch of last year’s NCAA Tournament clash, Tennessee once again came out on top against Mercer.

• Tennessee pulled off its second upset victory over a ranked team this season as the Vols took down 19th-ranked Arkansas, 74-69, Jan. 13, 2015, at Thompson-Boling Arena. • Tennessee withstood a furious charge by the Razorbacks in the final minutes to hold on for the win. The Vols made 11-of-14 from the foul line in the final 1:08 to seal the victory. • For Arkansas, the loss snapped a seven-game win streak. • Tennessee’s pressuring defense flustered Arkansas’s fast-paced offense most of the night. Arkansas was held to a 69 points, 14.9 less than their season average of 83.9. • The Vols forced the Razorbacks into a season-high 18 turnovers and converted those into 27 points. Tennessee controlled the paint as well, with a 40-32 advantage. • Josh Richardson led the Vols with a season-high tying 20 points, while Robert Hubbs III scored a career-high 16 points. Armani Moore netted 14 points and had four steals. • The Vols were in control for nearly the entire game and never trailed for the final 38 minutes of action despite the late Hog charge. • Up by a pair at halftime, the Vols opened up a 10-point advantage early in the second half, punctuated by a Richardson breakaway slam as UT took a 43-33 lead with 16 minutes left in the game. • Detrick Mostella’s back-to-back 3-pointers midway through the second half pushed Tennessee’s lead to a 15 at 53-38. The Vols held Arkansas without a point for 4:37 midway through the second half while building a 16-point lead.

South Carolina’s last win the series came on Feb. 17, 2007. The 15-game win streak equals the second-longest for Tennessee vs. an SEC opponent all-time. • Tennessee extended a five-point halftime lead to 10 in the first few minutes of the second half.

That made the scored 64-62. • Tennessee’s well-rounded 3-point shooting was on display all night as six different Vols made treys. UT made 10-of-18 from 3-point range (.556). • Overall, the Vols shot a season-best .575 from the floor. • South Carolina was led by Sindarius Thornwell (17 points and seven rebounds) and Demetrius Henry (12 points and eight rebounds).

• Tennessee opened SEC play with its fifth victory in a row overall as the Vols beat Mississippi State, 61-47, Jan. 7, 2014, at Humphrey Coliseum. • A familiar formula of potent 3-point shooting and stifling defense carried the Vols to another win, Donnie Tyndall’s first SEC victory and first in a road game as head coach at UT. • Kevin Punter led Tennessee with 15 points before fouling out. The Vols were mired in foul trouble all night, as Josh Richardson tallied 11 points and grabbed seven rebounds after picking up three early fouls. Devon Baulkman added 10 points and six rebounds. • Derek Reese finished with eight points and a career-high-tying 10 rebounds off the bench. • Armani Moore and Willie Carmichael fouled out without scoring. • Tennessee connected on 10-of-20 from beyond the arc while holding Mississippi State to just .306 percent shooting from the floor. The Bulldogs made one 3-pointer in the game, shooing 1-of-9. • The Vols also benefitted from poor free-throw shooting by Mississippi State, as the Bulldogs were 24-of-44 at the charity stripe (.544). • Up three at halftime, Tennessee’s defense was stout in the second half as Mississippi State started the half 1-of-10. The Vols kept MSU without a field goal for more than 11 minutes as the Orange & White continued to add to their lead. Tennessee scored 22 of the first 29 points in the second half to lead 48-30 with 8:59 left.

The Tigers hit three treys in the span of three minutes to take a 44-43 lead with six minutes left in the game. • When the Vols most-needed their defense, it came up big, forcing turnovers on three consecutive possessions that led to Tennessee baskets tipping a 46-46 tie game in UT’s favor with less than four minutes remaining. • Tennessee’s free-throw shooting was sensational, as the Vols shot 18-of-20 in the game, including 7-of-8 in the final 1:11 to secure the victory. • The teams were within four points for the entire first half, with the Vols holding a 26-24 lead at intermission • Namon Wright led the Tigers in scoring with 13 points.

• Tennessee’s mastery in road SEC games came to an end on Jan. 27, 2015, in Fayetteville, Ark., but not after nearly pulling off a fourth road win in a row at Arkansas. The Vols hung with the league’s highest-scoring team before falling, 69-64, at Bud Walton Arena. • The game was tied 14 times and the lead change hands eight times as neither team led by more than seven points (when Arkansas scored the game’s first seven points). • After scoring a career-high 16 points in the first meeting with Arkansas earlier in the month, Vols sophomore Robert Hubbs III once again had a huge game, with 15 points. • Senior Josh Richardson tallied a team-high 17, while junior Armani Moore scored 12 and grabbed six rebounds. Kevin Punter added 10 points. • The SEC’s leading scorer, Bobby Portis, led the Razorbacks with 17 points, 13 in the first half. Michael Qualls scored 15 with 12 in the second half. • Rashad Madden knocked down a 3-pointer with 4:28 left to give the Razorbacks a 63-60 lead. Punter and Bell traded buckets to keep the game a one-possession contest with three minutes left. • Two Arkansas free throws with 1:03 left in the game pushed its lead to five points, 67-62. • Richardson hit a jumper for the Vols with 52 seconds left, making it 67-64. • Punter stole the ball from Madden, giving the Vols a chance to tie the game with 11.9 seconds left. Hubbs got a great look at a corner 3-pointer, but the shot rattled out.

• In a rugged battle, Tennessee captured a 71-63 victory over Auburn Jan. 31, 2015, at Thompson-Boling Arena. Attendance was a season-high 18,439. • Junior Armani Moore posted his fourth double-double of the season with a career-high 19 points and tied his career-high with 13 rebounds. Junior Kevin Punter netted 17 points. Senior Josh Richardson added 15, and junior Derek Reese had 11. • Tennessee’s 11-0 run midway through the second half put the Vols in front for good, 60-52, keyed by Punter’s right-side corner 3-pointer with 8:39 left in the second half. • Moore scored six points in one second of game action to give Tennessee a 45-43 lead with 13:04 left in the second. Moore hit a short jumper in the lane on which Auburn’s Trayvon Reed was called for a flagrant-two foul and was ejected after a flying elbow to Moore’s face. Moore proceeded to make both free throws and then hit a layup as action continued. • The Vols led 33-29 at the half as Punter had 10 points for UT and point guard Tahj Shamsid-Deen netted 10 for the Tigers. • Auburn’s leading scorer, KT Harrell, finished with a team-high 16 points for the Tigers. • The game marked the emotional return of former Tennessee head coach Bruce Pearl, who led the UT program from 2005-11 and is in his first season as the Auburn head coach. Pearl has now lost each of the last four games he’s coached in Thompson-Boling Arena.
