Rick Barnes discussion (merged)

[hog88]

Older than the young lady he nailed on the table in his restaurant.

Mid 60s so not a comparison.

 

[hog88]

There are, however, 13+ young men who deserve a positive male role model (some of whom won't have had one at home).

This isn’t the 70s 80s, it’s all about winning now.

What big time program has integrity these days?

Our current basketball program.

I bet she was more like 18.

Wait. I’ve been told in several posts that without Barnes we’re nothing so obviously we’re not a big time program. No coach worth their salt will want to come here.

I’m not talking about the woman, Pitino was in his mid 60s at least when he got fired. The market isn’t that big for coaches that old.

The experience of our neighbors to the south gives us reason to doubt that proposition.

Duh

And what’s happened to them? If they go on to a deep tournament run their fan base won’t GAS about what happened.

 

[hog88]

Duh

Then what was your point?

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

So you think I meant that he was bumping uglies in his restaurant dining room with some cougar’s mother?

Wait I didn't know Jay Wright was retired. Maybe not that absurd after all in a few years.

I wonder if Kim English will still look good then. I liked him on our sidelines.

Wright is not coming out of retirement for Tennessee. He’s being floated for NBA jobs. It’s as realistic as expecting us to nab Saban a few years after he retires.

Some of us here care about the honor and integrity of our alma mater.

We've consistently earned high seeds the past few years. We're a big time program, and we operate with integrity.

 

[DuckInAPen]

It’s ok. A woman can be a man now.

?

No doubt, when Coach Barnes decides to retire- and it will be HIS decision, sorry Negavols- the program will be a much more attractive program for prospective coaches than it was after the Show Cause era of Pearl and Tyndall. and the stupid petition era at the end of Cuonzo’s tenure. CRB has restored integrity and class to the program while winning at a very high level.

It's not that hard to figure out

 

[DuckInAPen]

Or the opposite. Just pick one.

So confused you quoted twice. Whew.

 

[The Dog]

Then what was your point?

Are you a Hogs (Arkansas) fan ? Just wondering because of your username

I'm giving you a chance to explain your meaning rather than assuming that you've joined the race to define deviancy down.

IMO, you're either a dude or a chick. However, that's not the "norm" now.

He quit Villanova because he didn’t like recruiting in the NIL framework. He won’t coach college again

Danny White preached about integrity and doing things “the right way” when he was first introduced.

Whoever replaces Barnes, I’m sure won’t be a compete scumbag.
