Edey says Rick Barnes looked over him

[EaglesVols91]

Good. Don’t want this kind of player on the Vols. They will not win it all

I would like to know what he actually said wrong

I would like to know what he actually said wrong

Right or wrong, it was classless.

 

[Eastknox865]

Right or wrong, it was classless.

Not in my opinion he was just being honest

 

[TennEddie]

I will be curious to see how D.J. Burns matches up
against him.

 

[Eastknox865]

Right or wrong, it was classless.

All the guy said is that Barnes didn't offer him or want him at Tennessee. That happens everyday. The same thing happened to DK coming out

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

Sometimes the best thing to say is nothing at all.

 

[volplaya8]

Not the time or place to say that. You don’t rub things in when you win. That is the last major thing he will do in his life. Bye Shrek…can’t wait to laugh at your pathetic NBA career. Basketball school that goes to final fours once every 44 years. Clowns.

360+ other programs he could have used as an example. Driving the knife in the back of the coach you just sent home is pretty classless, honest or otherwise. Not to mention that it was pretty dramatic to insinuate that he, at 7'-4, has constantly battled adversity in the world of basketball.

The timing was poor. That's an offseason q/a discussion.

That's true but he wanted to speak his truth. It's nothing wrong with that. He didn't disrespect anyone. Some of you guys are soft as JA

 

[Just a VolinTears]

What a classless oaf

He doesn't. Will be the same outcome

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

I’m glad it was a pass. Watching free throw contests the last couple of years would have been nauseating.

 

[calban]

Will enjoy watching Burns and company nail the cover on Purdue's coffin.

If the refs call the game the way they have this year with Edey, then my money is on Burns fouling out at about the 14 minute mark in the second half.

 

[aaronvol]

The refs looked over him as well...

 

[Chattahooligan]

Terribly classless on his part, I don’t recall him ever being on our recruiting board, especially with us not exactly having a massive pipeline out of Canada, he could’ve said this about almost every other program in the country. Completely unwarranted thing to say and a joke to even assume that Barnes “looked over” him. Don’t want you in Orange anyways you big ass clown.

 

[Delmar]

Much ado about nothing. He was talking about all coaches but Painter who was the one who gave him a chance. Barnes was just the last one he played against and threw his name in there.

Just personal opinion. Glad we didn’t have him either. Would rather watch paint dry than watch that offense and 400 free throws.

I don't have a lot of out-of-conference hate to run with, but between the Purdue bowl heist and then this walking mound of easily offended foul calls I'm happy to give Purdue an evaluation period in the "I'll check to see if you lost" category.

Speak for yourself tough guy

Keep us posted. I won’t be watching. Basketball season is over.

There certainly is something wrong with it. But if he decides to make stupid comments he fits today’s world quite well. Steven Pearl’s probably a fan.

See the thing about "speaking your truth" is....others can speak their truth, and their truth might be that your truth is stupid.

And can your type please stop the bullsh** "you guys are soft" anytime someone disagrees with you, all you are doing is telling on yourself.

I am soft guy
