No. Moved here to draw retirement from another state and double dip. I understand now why Jesus wasn't born here. They couldn't find three wise men and a virgin.
Speaking of which, you know what they call a girl in Alabama who can run faster than her brothers?

A virgin.
 
do you guys see the dog?

Seems to be looking high and low and everyone is privately telling him thanks but no thanks.

Very telling.
Yeah, before they were willing to put up with him for a guaranteed championship game. Now he’s got GA with as much talent so there’s no guarantee.
 
True, I just find it fascinating to me that suddenly the expectation is for Tennessee to be on the same level as Kentucky or Duke in recruiting when that's never been the case here.

Barnes will be 3rd all time in Wins here before the season ends, he's won a regular season title and a SECT title, this season will be his 5th NCAA appearance good enough for 3rd all time (DeVoe/Pearl had 6), I am honestly surprised this team is sitting where they are right now. I really felt like losing KC and having no clear 2nd PG behind ZZ would have set us further behind.

Just need to finish the last 9 games strong. If we're heading into the SECT with 6 or less losses we'll be in a solid position to be a high seed, and then all you have to do is have a brief stretch of great shooting to make the FF.
I'm not sure whether it's because we can't attract 3-4 5 stars every year or Barnes doesn't want 3-4 5 stars every year. Personally I like the way he's recruited. I've never thought marching out a new team every year because of all the one-dones would appeal to me. You never really get to know the players. I like it when the core of the team is made up of 3-4 year guys. I loved Chandler and the two before them (can't recall their names, haha) and I certainly don't begrudge them for leaving and getting that cash but I'll remember the grants, the admirals, and the Richardsons, for a long time as I will Vescovi, Plav, ON, JJJ, ZZ, etc..
 
I know that is how you feel…. My standard is the same for Barnes as it was for cuonzo….. Peterson…. Houston…. Devoe… and every coach that we have from now on…. You are judged by how you do in March… I am appreciative of the stability… prestige… and character that Barnes brings to our program. He still needs to get over that hump to the next level.
In summation...Barnes doesn't win big in March...so Fahr Barnes!

That is the end of that chain of thinking and I think it is f'n stupid...period.
