Florida Atlantic makes first Elite Eight, bounces Tennessee

The ninth-seeded Owls will play third-seeded Kansas State in the East Region final at Madison Square Garden on Saturday.

MARCH 24, 2023

Moves back into starting five Aidoo is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against Florida Atlantic.

Impact Aidoo will reprise a spot in the Volunteers' starting rotation after coming off the bench in the team's first two games of the NCAA Tournament. While starting the nine games leading up to the start of March Madness, the 6-foot-11 sophomore averaged 5.3 points and 4.7 rebounds while playing 21.4 minutes per game. His overall production and playing time actually slightly increased while coming off the bench during the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament, so it's not too surprising to see Aidoo will replace senior Uros Plavsic in Thursday's starting unit.

Coming off bench Thursday Aidoo is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's first-round matchup against Louisiana-Lafayette.

Impact Aidoo has started each of the last nine games for the Volunteers but will come off the bench to open up the NCAA Tournament in favor of Uros Plavsic. The 6-11 sophomore has averaged 4.8 points and 4.8 rebounds over 18 minutes per contest this season and should remain involved in the rotation in the frontcourt alongside Plavsic and Olivier Nkamhoua.

Promising double-double Aidoo logged 12 points (6-11 FG), 11 rebounds, three blocks and one steal across 27 minutes during Tennessee's 68-59 win Wednesday versus Alabama.

Impact Aidoo has his first double-double. Though probably not now or soon, it indicates how good the sophomore could be. Julian Phillips (hip) and Josiah-Jordan James part of Tennessee's starting frontcourts from Jan. 17 to Feb. 8. Though both sat out injured Wednesday, the Volunteers had them as game time decisions beforehand. Aidoo will not be used much when Phillips and James play again soon. However, both are two of four seniors (including Olivier Nkamhoua and Uros Plavsic, frontcourt players) expected to graduate after the NCAA's 2022-23 season.
