I would just love to see him go out On Top!!! — Wouldn’t we ALL!

Don't talk about him "going out." The thought of him going anywhere pains my soul.

I hope we can make a deep run. Gosh this team has improved so much. Don’t discount Vescovi. His steals and defense have been good.

This program owes Barnes an immense debt. Unbelievable coach and person. I don’t even want to imagine what it will be like when he hangs it up. Let’s just savor it while he’s around.

 

[Pennheel]

I agree on all counts. Back to back wins to top 20 teams on the road. I'm not counting the chickens before they hatch,but they're playing their best basketball these last couple of weeks,and are carrying a ton of momentum at the perfect time.

You mean 20 games, right? 30 in 31 seasons would be really cool, though.

My man, you are looking at the “games played” column, not “wins”. Barnes had 6 seasons when he didn’t even PLAY 30 games.

He won 30+ 3 times, 20+ 24 times.

 

[dovervolz]

It's got to be 20. 30 wins in 31 years is 930 wins at least

Great coach

Exactly, he's 3 years younger than Saban, and he does not have dementia yet like a couple of big time politicians that we all know. lol

JJJ and Vescovi have provided leadership this season as well as rebounds, assists and stellar defense.
