You must be triggered, and it's hilarious. I like how you can only retort with "slurp slurp." Thank you for the intelligent discourse and counter-argument.

Buddy, I’ve been around a while. I’m not triggered by anything. I’m not engaging with someone who has his mind made up and fills in the facts to support his opinion.

I’m going to go enjoy the game. Have fun.

When you drop in with the "slurp slurp" comments, it certainly comes across that way. Irregardless, when talking facts, the fact is that Barnes has never won the NCAA and has never brought us a major tournament win. That's not an agenda, that's the truth whether it's convenient or not. I would hope as Vols fans that we would all expect more for the top dollar we pay him.

I do agree with one thing, though, there is a game to watch. Looking forward to our boys showing everyone who the real "UT" is.

Calipari still whipped Barnes like a red-headed stepchild and nothing you ever say will change that. As far as embarrassment, it's pretty embarrassing that our coach would pay an assistant out of pocket. What does that say about us? Poverty program under Barnes since he couldn't get the administration to step up and pay his folks? Seems strange that it would even be a concern, maybe there's more going on than we know.

As far as Googling Memphis, what did you expect? It was officially vacated, but if you look at the image I pulled from the NCAA site itself, there they are. It proves they still played and they won, but politics got in the way, so they took it away as punishment. Doesn't mean they didn't whip Barnes and everyone else except Kansas in overtime. I suppose I'm a bad person and will burn eternally because it doesn't particularly bother me.

I'll tell you this, I would rather see Barnes take our boys all the way and have it stripped than to always be a loser who couldn't get it done. Does having a title stripped because one player on your team had to fudge a little to pass the SAT diminish the accomplishment? In my opinion, heck no. Why do you think we have NIL at this point? Because they all do what they can to fudge as much as they can. To think otherwise is asinine.

Whatever you say. You're just as delusional and immoral with no integrity as Pearl. Good luck with all that.

I like how you bring morality into this versus having anything of substance to say. Hilarious. It's called high stakes, big business entertainment. If you can't figure that out, I pity you. All that loyalty towards a man who would have dropped us in a heartbeat if UCLA thought he was worth the money. Absurd.

Definitely not coaching because Barnes is #1.

How has Rick Barnes not managed to teach these kids to follow their shot? That is 101 basketball. If anything this particular group should start running towards the rim every time LOL. They are not a good shooting team.

Grant/Schofield team will be his best team I'm afraid. Oh well, lets see what the Nets -v- Warriors are doing.

Yeah his best was 1 sweet 16. Now Barnes top 5 paid coach and nowhere close to earning that money.

This is laughable. And he refused to call timeout. This is like a damn Phillip Fulmer victory lap.

I wish the live feed would short circuit so I couldn’t watch.
