Take a breath. I'm having some fun at Bama's expense. Relaxxxxx
(Though, now that you mention it, Oats has coached in six NCAA tourneys. Has six wins. Rick's last six tourneys? Six wins.)

Are you though, its a common argument and it makes no sense. The same thing people were doing with Vitello last year when they collapsed. Theres a bit of a difference in 7 years as a HC and 30

Well,that just happened to Alabama... No matter your rooting interest,it's shaping up to be a nice run to the Final game.

I am. Take a drink or a tote or whatever you take to relax. Being a Tennessee fan means you enjoy Alabama losing.

Also, Oats has 2 Sweet sixteens in 4 years, it took our guy 8. Not apples to apples

I'm really sorry Checkerboards. I shouldn't have spoken ill of Nate Oats. I'll never make that trespass again. Oats is the reincarnation of John Wooden and we're all blessed for breathing the same air as him

Nobodys saying that, im happy Bama isnt the champ, figured they wouldnt be theyre too soft, but trying to use Oats losing as a way to prop up Barnes isnt it.

If Barnes gets an E8 here before he retires, I think it will quiet a lot (not all) of the Barnes Bashers. I truly do. There will always be naysayers with any coach though. Hell, just look at the baseball team. Unprecedented success these past two years and you already have portions of our spoiled fanbase getting mad at the bad start to this season.

That being said, hopefully Barnes can get that E8 in the next 2-3 years. I think it will solidify him as the best coach TN has had.

I doubt it, had we won and lost to K State it would be we beat a 9 and waltzed into it, it’ll never be enough for most. Realistically speaking what’s the difference between S16 and E8??? There’s not some big trophy or award, either make a F4 or don’t.
