Ricks class next year can get UT back to the top

If you have ever wondered why Rick Barnes is a Sweet 16 coach, he’s shown you since he was up by 11 in this game

You need slapped

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

True about UT. What about Barnes?

And friend, I’m not saying get rid of him, but what else does he need?

Barnes is TN’s most successful NCAAT coach. Learn some history before posting idiotic comments.

SEC basketball in the 1970's was, as a friend of mine is fond of saying, the decade when you had to be a grown man to compete.
My Gawd, think about the men from that decade,

Vols - King, Grunfeld, Reggie Johnson, Kosmalski
Ky - Robey, Phillips, Grevey, Givens
Bama - Douglas, Dunn, Cleveland, Brown
LSU - Maravich, Macklin, Scales

There are a few more from various teams, but it was a man's game back then.
Those guys would knock these one & done kids on their collective ass if they played now.

Ky - James Lee was more of a man than any of those dudes.

You to disappear for one thing.

This is the same question I have asked my Kentucky friends about Calipari four years ago, and they had similar answers to yours

Elite Eight, The 2nd in history. Go troll elsewhere.

I’m not going to pretend to be any kind of basketball expert but I’ve watched enough to know that having an 11 point lead midway in the first half against a 1 seed is hardly a comfortable lead.

 

[VaBornVol]

You're a disgrace to the Commonwealth with that post.

UT Brother, I gave up on the Commonwealth along time ago. I couldn’t careless

 

[utvolpj]

We just played in the elite 8 and you all are arguing with a troll who called Barnes a sweet 16 coach during the game. He's just here for reaction

 

[Vols919]

This squad is in the Final Four if they played ANY team other than the one with an unskilled foul merchant giant.

Damn proud of Barnes and the team, Knecht was the best player in college ball and it isn't close.

If your point is that TN fans will be wanting to get rid of Barnes in 4 years like KY fans want to replace Cal now, you’re even more ignorant than I had thought.

I always forget about the ignore function. Thanks, PJ.

 

[VaBornVol]

While playing in the elite 8. This is a special kind of stupid asinine post.

When we start getting bounced constantly in the Elite 8, I’ll call Rick Barnes an Elite 8 coach

So… what else does Rick Barnes need?

 

[EaglesVols91]

I’ve been critical as hell of Barnes in March over the years, but this was NOT on him. So unfair the way the game was called. Edey has made a mockery of college basketball

This was a really stupid comment.

Rick Barnes really should have called more fouls on Edey

 

[OrangeInKy]

Ricks class next year can get UT back to the top

Can’t even think about it

Troll

Rick Barnes has been to a Final Four with Texas in 2003. They lost to Syracuse. He was also in the Elite 8 with Texas in other years. What a moron.
