Just sit over there with your arms folded Barnes. Dont dom your job and coach them or anything

 

[landscapingvol]

ORN and Fulky are trashhhhh

Start BHH and Aidoo, can’t be any worse.

Fulkerson is a non factor in most games

 

[TheMookieMonster]

The fact that BHH still cannot see the court when we're down by 30 freaking points is mind-numbingly dumb. I don't know how you can ever expect him to contribute if in a game that has been a foregone conclusion since practically tip-off you still don't play him.

 

[AthensVol2007]

Bama didn't blast us...LSU didn't blast us

LSU beat us by 12 and was up 20 in that game. That’s not a blasting?

 

[PC Jr.]

What’s the biggest margin in a loss during the Rick Barnes era?

 

[Volstylexx]

Bama didn't blast us...LSU didn't blast us

Didn't TN have the ball down 2 with under a minute @bama.. without Chandler and Fulky playing?

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

They won't shoot this way. Why do you think it's the first time they've shot this way this year?

Of course they won't. That was partly my point. On a rare day where they shoot like this, they beat anybody. That's my point. As to why they are shooting this well, doesn't take a basketball expert to figure that out.

 

[ndubvols]

Not sure why chandler went for that with only 1 hand

 

[Voltopia]

Man, forget how much fight the team is gonna show, Bilas, we want to see how much fight Barnes is gonna show.

 

[Volarious]

Nice to see Barnes sitting there doing no coaching whatsoever….

 

[golfballs]

Not sure about the “ best” but definitely one of the best. And they are a heck of a lot better team than we are. And to think BTO was saying they weren’t a tourney team a few weeks ago, LOL

They are better than us and when they play like this I don’t think we could ever be that close. They are playing like a national title team today.

 

[BreatheUT]

I doubt BHH is coming back next year. None of these players are being coached

I'm afraid you might be right. If I'm BHH, I look at this game and see how we are getting plummeled in the post and he can't get in the game.

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

BHH still hasn’t taken off his warmup.

Way to go Barnes, molder of young men. That’ll show em’!

 

[PC Jr.]

BHH!!

 

[tnvols72]

This team is so undisciplined , they fail at basic basketball

 

[1985Vols]

Hey, they missed one!

Nice to see Barnes sitting there doing no coaching whatsoever….

looks totally disengaged

Barnes seems very content to give BHH every reason in the world to transfer.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Finally, BHH in

 

[TheMookieMonster]

He's finally on the court. Bet Rick pulls him after his first mistake.

 

[sechamp2012]

The Kentucky TRANSFER University + a few one & dones . Calapari has changed his MO.

 

[Volstylexx]

LSU beat us by 12 and was up 20 in that game. That’s not a blasting?

3:02 left in the game and TN cut the LSU lead to 71-66 in front of one of the loudest crowds we will see all season. Lots of fight from the team that day. Today is a "Blasting".

 

[87&91ALUM]

55-81 with ten minutes of pain and suffering to go

 

[johnboyhunter]

11 for 11 FT

 

[1985Vols]

Barnes has ruined every good big he has recruited. His stubbornness will be his downfall

 

[BreatheUT]

Yep. Whatever it is that's keeping Barnes from playing BHH, he needs to get over. What we've seen from that kid this season isn't any worse than what Uros, Fulky, and Olivier, are currently giving us. And at least he brings some upside to the table.

I wouldn't be surprised if Barnes tactic hasn't worked with BHH and he transfers.
