That's not entirely true. One thing Barnes has always said in his testimony is that there was a certain point in his career (I believe halfway thru Texas) that he hit a point where "he wasn't coaching for the right reasons" and that his emotions would sometime get the best of him coaching. He hasn't always been very focused on his faith as a coach until the second half of his Texas career and now here. In my opinion, he has chilled/mellowed out a bit. Is it part to him being on the back stretch of his career? Maybe. Is it him sticking to a new way of coaching that he switched to 10 years ago? Maybe.
Totally fine with his attitude and style of coaching. The one thing that confuses me is during Conference Tourney week and March Madness, everything is multiplied x1000...
I recall Barnes coaching at Clemson. He was NOT as subdued as he is now. His faith has played a lot into his demeanor on the bench. Reminds me of Tony’s Dungy- didn’t use profanity, etc. Now his players say Barnes yells at them so...Barnes says he just raises his voice,lol
