He lost his brother. Very sad.

I didn’t realize that CRB’s mother passed away in 2021.

I heard him mention last week that he flew to see his brother for the day so I wondered if he was sick and then I thought I heard the broadcast crew mention during the game Saturday that he passed. I didn’t hear anything else about it so I thought I heard wrong. Sorry to hear. I know his older brother was influential as Barnes grew up without a father for most of his life. Gotta be tough to coach tonight then bury your brother the next day. Praying for coach.

Same, they made just a quick comment about his brother passing and that was it.

He coached the Kentucky game knowing his brother was near the end. Can’t imagine.
