Good for you, you think you nailed it? CRB's Grant William's teams were special, check them out and officiating cost us dearly in the Tournament.I’ve said to my buddy for a few years as long as CRB is here we’ll always be really good but rarely (if ever) great. Great being a team good enough to win it all. I don’t say that as a bad thing, I can accept what we have now and hope for lightning in a bottle here or there.
I think you are taking what I said wrong, love CRB, think he’s a great coach and I’m good with him as our coach as long as he is here. I’m just saying I don’t “think” we’re gonna win a NC with him at the helm. I didn’t know he was your dad, calm down. Also, been around for a lot longer than Grant Williams teams.Good for you, you think you nailed it?

Who really expects UT to win a natty in men’s basketball? That’ll happen about when South Carolina wins one in football.Contender for what? The tourney? Yes. The sweet 16? Yes. The elite 8? Doubtful. The final four? Very doubtful. The championship? Barnes is never going to win one.
I ONLY want the Vols to make it to one Final Four before I die. In my savings, I have allocated money to allow me to go to it. Hopefully, not in an iron lungContender for what? The tourney? Yes.

The program is pretty much guaranteed to go backwards after Rick leaves. The only question is how much and for how long.Disagree. Danny has proven has great at evaluating coaching talent. I think he’ll bring in someone that keeps it rolling. Just look at what Caldwell is doing.
If it doesn’t happen under Barnes, you won’t get your wish
That last paragraph is sort of laughable in the absolute manner in which you stated it. We MIGHT very well get another great coach when Barnes decides to retire. Mostly it's just uninformed drivelBS!
We have an excellent AD now.
Your attitude and view of our school is disgusting.
You view us like the ugly girl at prom who is just lucky to be asked. I don’t view UT that way.
Our school was a number 1 team under Pearl. We can be a number one coach under the next guy and I trust Danny White to make an excellent hire.
The way you view our program is disgusting. It’s why we had crsp like Dooley for FB.
Our next coach will be just as good. He may not have decades of padded regular seasons stats but he will do just as well or better.

That hate sometimes makes people say pretty crazy things. Clouds judgement.BS!

For a casual fan who only cares about the tournament. He absolutely can make a final four. Will he here? Maybe. Maybe not, but I like winning 25+ games a year because it gives us the best opportunity to win one. Having a 1 or 2 seed is criticalStatistically speaking anyone who thinks Barnes can make a final 4, let alone win it, is speaking uninformed drivel and hasn’t read his bio. If he was gonna get it done, he would have by now. If he retires, you are replacing a coach with a sweet 16 ceiling. This is historically based on facts. Not emotions.
The Gregg Allman cover of that song is beautiful.I’ve always been amazed that he wrote “These Days” at 16. The lyrics are beyond what a 16 YO would have ever experienced and the music isn’t basic as would be expected for someone 16 to me. Some folks are born with amazing gifts and JB is one of them.
Statistically, the chances of hiring a coach who is just as good on your next hire is very low when you have a hall of famer-ish coach. Look what happened to Bama, us after Fulmer and Neyland, Butler, etc. It’s not a high shot. Could they make a final four, sure, but it’s really mostly luck of the draw and injury luck as South Carolina proved.BS!
