If you could pick one coach from another SEC school to sit at Barnes side the rest of season. Who?

[EtowahVol]

My Pick: Jerry Stackhouse , Takes less and does more. guys play hard for him. Brings a ton of NBA knowledge

Kermit the Frog…..I mean Davis.

 

[SouthknoxTN07]

Nate Oats

IDK about “does more” , his kids “play hard” is about the best accolades we can give him… the wins are not following. Id go Nate Oates

I know the intent of the thread is who would improve our men's season, but deviating from the script: Jon Harper.

I'd like to see Barnes' accumulation of coaching experience get passed on within the UTAD.

 

[VolBricks]

Penny Hardaway that guy is a great coach

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Cal or Bruce

 

[VEKZY]

Nate Oats, so he can’t coach for Bama.

 

[NighthawkVol]

Nate Oats

I'd say Oats because we need someone who would help on the offensive end more than the defensive end.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Steven Pearl. To go fetch popcorn for the rest of the guys sitting there.

 

[Stoerner Fumbles]

Usually the right answer to questions like this is Abraham Lincoln or Jesus. Either would be as helpful as having a second SEC head coach on the bench.

If this is restricted to head coaches, it has to be Oats. His offense and Barnes's defense would be a really nice combo.

 

[savannahfan]

Cal or Bruce

I think they would learn from each other (if egos wouldn't get in the way) and the players would have some of the best coaching ever received in any sport.

That is if he also could bring his shooters!!!

Except his teams don't win and I'm not sure why. I say no to that bad karma

Even most of the Vandy fans don’t like him, why would we want him.

 

[cncchris33]

Even most of the Vandy fans don’t like him, why would we want him.

He's an unlikable guy, and waaaay too sensitive. He cares far too much what other people think about him, which isn't a great quality for a head coach.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

Mike White

 

[Special Ed]

Kim Mulkey

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Kim Mulkey

Dawn Staley. Mulkey hating on Griner would be a distraction.

 

[VolBricks]

Bruce Pearl for his "pep rally" skills alone

 

[Caculator]

Another Rick Barnes, y'all can have the rest

 

[cardvolfan]

Kevin O’Neill.

 

[JoAllan]

Gates and for me it ain’t even close.

He’s getting a lot out of his team and they’re scoring 86 points per game.

Plus I think he would bring a fresh perspective.

Not saying “best”……..just saying that’s who I’d have.

Gates is doing very well at Mizzou, but I don’t see that style of play fitting in with Barnes’ defensive style. Don’t see them as a match
