Irrational Rick Barnes takes (merged)

[berryvol]

This isnt true at all, but m kay. With more money comes more expectations. This is back to back seasons where Barnes is on pace to underachieve.

You seriously think coach salaries determine parking and concession costs?!?!?

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Please tell me when? I’ve never once heard him put the blame on himself for losing a game

You don’t want to hear it. I have.

 

[Tnphil]

Nope. When the money was needed to keep Barnes it was raised from a handful of donors.

You telling me on record 30 years of season tickets not 1 dime of my money went to salaries?

Don’t pretend like you know how they’re being coached. The NCAAT is 2 months away and TN is relying on the development of freshmen in key spots.

Hard to “ develop “ when you’re on the bench. Says BHH

 

[berryvol]

Not that this was aimed it me but it is not true. Giving up my football tickets this year after they took away grandfather status and Basketball is next. We as fans do contribute to the bottom line of the athletic department and help pay salaries and athletic costs.

Someone will replace you. You are not as important as you think you are.

I go by what I get to watch on game day. This halfcourt offense is a joke once again. This team looks just like last years team, theres talent but the coach has no clue what to do with it.

Not great from what I hear

Please tell me what BHH brought to the offense and defense while he was on the court?

I’ll wait.

Barnes is a good coach. It is amazing to me how quick people forget how bad Tennessee was when Barnes showed up. It is fire the coach idiots that ran Fulmer off. How did that work out.

Tyndall went 16-16 the year before Barnes. We were in the Sweet 16 the year before that. Barnes wasn't taking over a post Wade Houston situation.

Tennessee should probably have told the NCAA to sit in the corner regarding Tyndall too. North Carolina ran a fake class for 20 years. Nothing. Syracuse ran a massive academic fraud program for basketball for 2 decades, Boheim got a slap on the wrist.

Tyndall made the mistake of cheating at a small school. That's the kiss of death. As the old saying goes "Kentucky's cheating again, Chaminade is gonna get probation."

A bunch of 5* players that are coached down to 3*

Barnes is here until he decides he’s ready to retire.

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Two and done but not sweet 16? Interesting.

That exposes their intellect. LOL.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Two and done but not sweet 16? Interesting. One bounce of the ball could change everything.

Two games not two wins.

If you think we’re riding the Plavisc horse to a tourney run, your delirious.

Stop moving goalposts and answer the question

Your dimes weren’t part of the fund created to keep Barnes from jumping to UCLA.

35 years, 7 times advances to the 2nd weekend. Time to retire or DW needs to get the termination letter ready. A coach that never takes responsibility
for losses, I have zero respect for.

 

[1985Vols]

BHH wasn’t on the court long enough to do anything tonight. My point is that if we’re going to do anything in March, Barnes needs to play BHH to develop him and get him ready for March

 

[VolFreakJosh]

They really think their hard earned money is actually going towards his salary. LOL

It’s not smart to believe that player development comes from somewhere other than workouts. Experience and development are separate things.

1 Final 4 in 35 years. Not a great track record in March

so...on record none of my money has gone into bottom lines and salaries. Got it.

Pardon my ignorance but does a show cause just apply to ncaa institutions. tyndal got 10 years and he's back coaching at Chipola.
