Charles Hathaway, Sr. The story of the Vols, in a nutshell. Isiah Victor and Vincent Yarbrough will play in the NBA, and Charles Hathaway, because of his size, will too. The problem is, they play as individuals and rarely bring out the mental toughness and fortitude it takes to be successful in Tournament play.
Victor plays like a lottery pick at times, then gets lost minutes later.
He's athletic and agile and hard to defend, but must stay focused on both ends. He gets lazy defensively and picks up quick fouls. Hathaway plays well when motivated and needs to concentrate more as a defensive force. Yarbrough is dangerous on the perimeter and off the dribble, but needs to assert himself more as a team leader. More than anything, Tennessee lacks players with defined roles and players who accept those roles.
