That Rick Barnes, SMH. Losing to this fledgling FAU squad.

He was just looking out for his team. They were tired and beat up. Needed the rest. Glad it worked out for them.

Ladies had it to within 1 but down 11 now with 2 minutes left.

Dang, how embarassing for K State to lose to such a garbage team. K State got such a walk-in to the Final Four. Only tough game was the blue team. They basically had the easiest route to the Final Four in history and blew it. Should fire their coach for this total failure.

KSU should be embarrassed. Fire em all. FAU is awful

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

What were the Vegas odds in the preseason that FAU would make the damn final four????

1 and 6000000000???

We called timeout…. Out of the timeout…. We had Sara dribble in place and launch a long three… Kellie is so frustrating at times.

 

[SugarCC]

Barnes is just snakebit in the tourney...has nothing at all to do with what he is/what he does as a coach. Snakebit. In 18, a #11 Cinderella on their way to the Final Four, now a #9.

People actually convinced themselves this FAU team sucks, after they had just beaten us, just to play into their "Barnes should've never lost to this team!!!" narrative.

As the lowest seed still in it, I feel obligated to cheer for FAU the rest of the way.

Worst final four team ever! Lol

 

[volbeast33]

Worst final four team ever! Lol

Going to be the worse final four ever as far as talent goes.

 

[Weezer]

Down 11 with a minute and a half, the LVs are done.

Probably around +7,500 - +10,000

FAU was picked to finish 5th in conference USA in the preseason

 

[Weezer]

Because of Geno, I can't cheer for UConn in any sport. I hope the Zags take 'em down.

They were 250-1 dogs to win the title at the start of the season. . . no way that +250,000 number is right. It should be +25,000. . . Idk, maybe it is right. .
Edit: crazy, that +250,000 may be right. I've seen it in a couple places. Bet $100 win $250k? Those odd can't be right. . .insane if they are.

 

[SoilVol]

If he can’t get them to play defense better than they are…. He won’t be there long.

Lmao... dude... they just made the Elite 8 and came 3pts from a Final Four and you're projecting a short tenure because they don't play defense good enough? They allow 69.6 pts a game (156th)

I guess Mark Few won't last long at Gonzaga, they allow 73.1 ppg (266th).

 

[Ace]

The refs in the Lady Vol game should never officiate again. They are terrible. Numerous missed calls - obvious misses whole game. Both teams players just shaking their heads.
Edit: Refs are not the reason LV lost.

Wut?

 

[Jack Burton]

Totally thought that was a copperhead.



Seriously, that's a beautiful plant. Hope it comes back

It was a little unruly at the time but I normally keep it trimmed.

There is a snake in this shot of the jasmine though.

Blackbuster!

 

[Weezer]

Stopped watching the LVs game earlier. Did one of our players throw a punch?

 

[csprig9]

Barnes ball coddlers are out in full force
Yes He’s the best we’ve ever had and a HOFer
Doesn’t need fired but needs to get the monkey of the tournament off his back and get in a final four

Yes I don’t think he should’ve lost to FAU and I also think that team with grant and admiral should’ve been a final four team

I don’t understand why we as vol fans can’t be pissed at him with his tournament history

FAU now has more final four appearances then Tennessee does and we have a hall of fame coach

Tennessee has the resources to win it all in all sports

I really wish he would recruit some scorers at the guard positions And let them run
