Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[MarcoVol]

Loyola!! Just made me $67 bucks on a $2 parlay. Love it.

Also, Loyola is good. That wasn’t a luck win or perfect storm by any means, they just straight up outplayed Illinois.

Porter Moser gonna get paid if he wants. Already a Final 4 a few years ago and now this. At Loyola. Maybe he sticks and tries to turn them into Gonzaga Midwest.

 

[volatil]

Yeah. Rick could not make the tournament for the next 3 years and still not get fired. He's here as long as he wants to be.

He is missing some key pieces. I’m hoping the next class fills some of those

I was literally thinking about the Gonzaga comparison

 

[tnvols72]

I am not saying Barnes should be fired but I would go get the Loyola coach.

You’d have to do one to do the other

I should’ve specified “amateur” team.

I hope he stays and continues to have success. Makes college bball more enjoyable.

He’s even got some Gonzaga looking players before Gonzaga started getting highly rated guys.

I'm an idiot and had Texas in the Final Four.........

And I'm now a bigger idiot since I had Illinois in the Championship Game

He has it made with recruiting Chicago. I'd stay if I were him. He will get paid either way.

Talk about doing more with less... what a well coached, confident bball team... Yeah, at this point I hate to say it, but the Loyola coach is doing something right that Barnes isn't... can you imagine the Loyola coach with our talent... sheesh. Tell Barnes he can go to UCLA and we'll grab Porter Moser... ALL DAY... talk about getting the most out of your talent... let him coach football too...

Man I took Jr to Gonzaga game in Nashville. It was my birthday so my wife got us tickets really close to the floor. Unfortunately to do that the tickets were in Gonzaga section. Their fans are so damn arrogant. I hope they get beat every game.

Seats were so good I got a warning from a ref

 

[sneakergawd]

Have they announced if fans are going to be able to attend the Orange & White game?

 

[volbeast33]

Really? Shaka hasn’t won an NCAAT game at Texas and has a season of 11-22. It’s really not close who has done better.

Oh yea, and Shaka has 2 projected first round picks this year. Sound familiar? Unless some rosters change, I think Texas takes more of a step back than us next year.

I wasn’t saying that Shaka has done a good job but they were wanting Barnes gone due to his failure in the tournament.... I highly doubt they are looking at it and going..... man, if we had kept Barnes then we would have made one sweet sixteen..... I think Barnes is good for Tennessee but he has twenty plus years of history and what you see is what you get from him.

 

[TennSam]

Isn't that what was said when Martin got fired ? Then Tn went out and got Barnes. How is the basketball program all of a sudden toxic?

Yes we were fortunate to get Barnes and now all of a sudden he can’t coach.I bet a couple of people from the team 2 years ago would argue differently.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Porter Moser gonna get paid if he wants. Already a Final 4 a few years ago and now this. At Loyola. Maybe he sticks and tries to turn them into Gonzaga Midwest.

Yeah, they are really well coached. Love watching that offense go to work and the defense was lock down.

 

[volbeast33]

That makes it a great move? And I differ with your point btw.

They want to feel like they are competing for a championship..... Barnes has taken Tennessee to one sweet sixteen more than Smart.....Moving hasnt really had a huge negative effect on their program.

 

[peaygolf]

Stay, or go coach DePaul...... Get them back to relevance

Living the Basic Training dream my VN fam

 

[Weezer]

I'm ready for more upsets.

 

[volatil]

If we were historically a team in the conversation every year for a national championship, I might listen to this argument.

Under Barnes I know we will have talent, compete for the SEC, and make the tournament.

Those things can not be said for our program over the past 40 years. One exception Bruce Pearl.

Devoe sucked

Houston was horrible

Kevin O’Neill PATHETIC

Jerry Green had some teams but absolutely couldn’t coach them

Buzz Peterson haha

Bruce

Counzo wasn’t a terrible coach. He had a good run in the tournament.

Donnie Tyndall (was he actually here? WTF)

And Barnes

I know we are paying him a lot. And he is giving us a better chance to win than most coaches in our history. Better stop and think about what you really want.

I like that they’re good tho. College football is so boring bc there’s never a small team that builds itself up and has a chance to win it all. And I love college football lol.

But college bball tournament is the best thing ever. I hope freaking Loyola wins it all. Or let Few get his title. Or some other team no one expects.

 

[Jackcrevol]

I'm ready for more upsets.

stick around for football season, youll some of the upsets.

 

[volbeast33]

Got TYNDALL first and it got even funner. Makes Barnes accomplishments here even more impressive. We were bottom rung when he took on this toxic mess.

That’s why I like him being here even I think this is his cap as a coach.

 

[Leeleesteeth]

Dang. Came on here looking for football. See yall Tuesday after practice.

 

[volatil]

Ron Slay on the radio is hilarious. He was talking about Jerry Green’s practices. “No plays, no prepping. He would split us up into shirts and skins and roll the ball out there. And that was practice.”
