F Rick Barnes and his BS culture. That culture got you bounced out by sister Jean and Matt effing painter when you had arguably the most talented team in Tennessee history. Meanwhile, DJ Burns is out here balling on Villanova. Would have been nice to have him today and all year.

Eff supposed fans who only support the team when they meet their expectations and who think they know more than these coaches. If you wouldn't want your son to play for Rick Barnes, then that is all the evidence I need to recognize that you are full of **** and talking out of your ass.

After going back and actually reading a few of the previous post I now REALIZE that you all were not talking about Women's Soccer. I now understand the error of may ways and would like to apologize for any confusion I may have caused..........I have shamed myself and I will now go back to my corner and sit quietly and play with my Crayons.

The NCAA is already up our butts-- has been since early December. Admin feels they have the kind of coaches they want in all the marquee sports and are going to give them the leeway to build/rebuild/establish/grow their programs. UT wants stability and integrity in its core programs and leadership feels they have it. Win at all costs? No.

You don't win anything self reporting to the ncaa. UT made their job a lot easier, they'll for sure be made into an example.

We really need Hype to do well and I hope he surprises us all but I do think the culture and integrity will be there under Hype. Can't wait to see this O.

That most talented team in Tennessee history only had one four star on it and that was Pons.... That seems like a good job developing a team.

It’s okay to be critical of the 5th highest paid coach in basketball who is one and done in the tournament and underachieved this season. I still like Barnes and think he can figure it out. But he needs to figure it out.

He won’t figure it out..... he is the same coach today as he was 20 years ago.

Bball has not trended downward.

Football can’t trend down any lower.

Baseball is trending up.

Basketball recruiting has trended upward I'll give you that. But the overall direction I really don't know

Football I agree

Baseball I agree

I don’t think he will win anything major here but I love his stability..... the attention he brings to the program..... maybe some of the guys will be the next stud pros..... would love for to get a KD type player and this next generation wearing Tennessee KD jerseys everywhere and thinking Tennessee is a big deal again.

I must admit I didn't watch every game this year but the ones I did watch this team had one glaring trait, they were very fragile mentally. When things went well they feed off the energy and more times than not when things went bad they wallered in their own self doubt and just couldn't recover from it. I'm not so sure that is coaching as much as it is lack of leadership among the players themselves. Every good team has one or two guys that never look down. You can't be a leader looking at the floor and we had a lot of that when I watched and things didn't go the Vols way. Just an observation from a far corner of the room.

Critical? Sure. Scream for his head and pretend we'd hire someone better? Not so much. The two highest paid coaches didn't even make the tournament.
