Tennessee basketball: Vols last-minute collapses a trend without Lamonte Turner

Rick Barnes had Admiral Schofield and Lamonte Turner speak to the Tennessee basketball team Tuesday night as they had to hold off the Vanderbilt Commodores. Unfortunately for the Vols, that didn’t fix the main thing that has plagued them without Turner.

In that matchup, UT had a 13-point lead with two and a half minutes left. They had a 10-point lead with 35 seconds left. But they somehow collapsed enough to have to hold on and just win by two at the end.

It was an ugly affair, and it is one that has plagued this team since Santiago Vescovi took over at point guard and Turner had his season-ending injury.
