Who do y’all have in mind for Barnes replacement that’s actually a realistic possibility?

I agree with you that any "issues" with this program can be traced back to Pearl and his self-inflicted downfall (despite the fact that he helped ensure that Tennessee was a consistent Top 25 team during his tenure), but I don't think that it's unreasonable to be agitated regarding this team's failure to get a W against an often-inferior Auburn squad.

You might as well save your breath, I think Barnes is his real dad or something. He is above reproach and anytime you suggest Barnes just might not be doing the best job he starts screaming "WHO YA GONNA GIT?"

A lot of things have changed over the past decade my friend. NCAA troubles don’t seem to matter much anymore... ask Arizona, NC, Kansas and LSU. Don’t act like Pearl’s mistake is an unforgivable sin, it’s not. Winning trumps everything. Give me Pearl all day long

This is by far his worst coaching performance since he's been here. He's lost this team.

Second worst. His 2018-19 team erupted being a total flop in March as well. This guy ain’t a championship coach because come late February and March his teams fold like a cheap tent.

Rick Barnes was carried by Grant Williams the same way Butch Jones was carried by Dobbs. Rick Barnes is a more likeable Butch Jones.

Once again, you fail to admit Barnes is average at best. Pearl was thrown under the bus by an admin afraid of a toothless tiger.

Pearl wasn’t thrown under the bus.

He threw the administration under the bus after they confronted him about the barbecue scandal after telling them he didn’t know anything about it.

Sure I do, everytime someone criticizes the team you break into hives and start screaming about replacing Barnes. That's 100% you bro.

Nah, you and other posters think firing coaches is always the answer to our problems.

Keep doing you bro.

Mediocre Barns strikes again. The most overrated and over paid coach in college basketball. Thank you Fulmer for over paying again.

I’ve been saying that the past six weeks and getting ripped on here by BTO , Josh and others. Glad to see others are now agreeing with me. We ar NOT getting our money’s worth with slick Rick. He’s a nice guy but even close to being a $5M coach. Tired of paying big money for small time coaches at this University.

Yeah because im sure Wade told his admin he was paying guys, im sure Self has admitted too, Coach K probably sends emails about the money he spends. Moron what is Barnes supposed to say, yeah i did it? Give me a ****ing break. The admin shouldve went to bat for him instead of bending a knee to a nobody.

Barnes teams wind up all playing with no chemistry and effort the later the season goes. Except for the Grant and Admiral team. Should've let him go to UCLA. He hit his ceiling here.

Yep, not getting our money’s worth ( $5M a year) with this guy. This team does not even look coached. Time to retire Rick
