Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Even flirting with this is tarnishing my impression of him. I know it’s how coaches gain leverage but once again I as a fan have this image that coaches love jobs and it’s not just business.


It’s business every time.

Yep I didn’t take Barnes for being like this to cause drama. Not too mention it literally makes zero sense for him personally, religiously or professionally. It just more reason for me to miss Bruce. Bruce was a lifer here if it was his choice

Bruce is all about Bruce and Barnes is all about Barnes. It is the human condition. We all look out for our own self interest.

 

[Warrior5]

I have it on good authority that Barnes isn’t going anywhere... things could change but pretty confident.

 

[Volnut]

I don't have any contacts or insight, but I think we're getting ready to find out how good of an AD Phillip Fulmer is.

So for no reason he up and pisses off about 10% of fanbase when he could have just kept this all behind closed doors between him and Fulmer

No Fulmer is turning out to be a very good AD...

He didn't leak it. The left coast people did.

[Catbone]

Yikes that does look bad

 

[volatil]

He didn't leak it. The left coast people did.

My guess is way more than 10% too.

He comes back I hope Fulmer is updating his potential list.

 

[Ace]

I thought Fulmer was in Tampa looking for a women’s coach

 

[JacketVol]

I’m starting to draft a few select words if he does leave.

I did in the basketball forum and was told I was a sorry excuse for a Tennessee fan and to go F myself ect. It’s how I felt IF he did leave. Pretty much that he’s a mercenary like most coaches and a POS.

 

[SSVol]

If Barnes was paying his assistants out of his own pocket, he may have legitimate concerns about Fulmer’s commitment to MBB. Lanier leaving may have been about money and may well have been the last straw. Barnes may be using the only tool he has to force the issue. This may not be about him and his pay, but about his budget for assistants. And coming off of this season, obviously Barnes is negotiating from a position of strength. Now we get to see if Phil is the AD we hope he is.

I hardly post or even visit the basketball forum. It's a mini football forum.

Just find me on game day in here bruh

 

[InVOLuntary]

 

[UTSuave’]

you’re speaking for all of us..

 

[UTSuave’]

See!!!!! Barnes does have respect for us

 

[Volnut]

But it could be based on dollar amounts for assistants.

 

[volatil]

So he was looking for an out before this alleged unappreciative non COY attended ceremony.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

So he wants out

 

[InVOLuntary]

See!!!!! Barnes does have respect for us

It also tells me he was entertaining offers from folks. Tells me he may have been looking for a way out. Tells me he hasn't been content here.
