Rick Barnes discussion (merged)

I like Coach Barnes. I don't want him gone. But the thing I don't understand is it seems we've played worse as our recruiting has improved. It seems Coach Barnes relates better to motivated 3 stars vs coaching up 4 and 5 stars. Am I wrong here? (admittedly, I don't follow bball as close as many on here)

Hey watch it - Zo took one of his teams to the sweet 16 too. Lol. Kind of like Rich Barnes single sweet 16 in over 10 years. That’s awesome.

Grant was just a badly missed recruiting ranking by the services. He was an elite player the day he stepped on campus.

TN offensively is abysmal yet the head coach not calling plays on offense. So I say to the head coach, logically, run some set plays.

That’s what your supposed to do. Unless it’s just roll the ball out there and let them play.

Barnes just doesn't have it. Overpaid and overrated. Even if we pull out a win against Texas, it's just embarrassing. You would think a solidly ranked team could be more dominant against an unranked Texas.

This game looks like AAU street ball. Let's hope it gets better by March.

I like Barnes too and think he’s been great for our program but I also think it’s about time for him to retire. My hope is we don’t have to fire him and he goes out gracefully and helps identifying the new coach.

Cuozo was amazing truly

he’s been relying on one sweet 16 since he left here. Likely will get fired from Mizzou. That amazing isn’t it. Amazing bad.

Barnes hasn’t done squat since his sweet 16 except make millions more.

I wish I could rest on my laurels and watch those checks roll in. Yeah baby. Ain’t it awesome. Isn’t this fun to watch.

Don’t we love this.
