For those assuming Tennessee is the leader for his services since it was the school his brother attended, Isaiah, who has several SEC basketball offers as well as ones from Memphis and Iowa State, said Saturday he doesn't have a leader. "No favoritism," he said.

"(Tennessee is) a whole 'nother school, a whole 'nother coaching staff, you know?" he said. "I mean, people will assume that. Don't get me wrong — Tennessee is a great school. But just because my brother went there doesn't mean that I'll go there."

This was from an article a few weeks ago, no idea if it was posted, and I honestly didn't look to see if it was.

fwiw

You need not feel embarrassed for me. Feel embarrassed for the above post because you can't tell me one ridiculous thing that I have posted by your own assessment that I can't refute. To make a blanket statement is what is ridiculous on your part.

So, join the cast of clowns that worship at the altar of Rick Barnes and tell me and the world what he has done here that impresses you so much, but plan on a rebuttal if it has any holes in the logic. You may not be chuckling as much as you think after that.

You must be a Vandy fan. No way your a Vol fan.

Another 4* with Tennessee on its short list, rough few days for the "Barnes' can't recruit" crowd.

2017 forward Abu Kigab has narrowed his list to USC, Oregon, Tennessee, Illinois, California & UCLA. Will visit Oregon on September 10th.

That's weird, given as we supposedly weren't pushing very hard at all.

Problem is Rick Barnes has had as many 5 stars as 3 stars on his Texas roster's and still underachieved but we are supposed to now believe with Nine or ten 3 stars and three 4 stars he's going to win as much or more!? To many dumbass agendas on here with poster's picking fights including you BTO, Buzz and many others. I'm a realist on Barnes. This is why I hardly post or read on here because of the infighting. I just want to find good Info and Tennessee basketball to be really good.

I have a feeling, and I could be completely wrong, but that Schwartz may be in charge currently recruiting the wings Kigab and Samuels that we are in on. Both guys don't fit a need, but are very good prospects, I have the feeling Tennessee will try to schedule OV's with those guys for later in the year, after the big 3 have their visits and Tennessee knows where they stand. Again, I could be wrong, just the feeling I get from the tea leaves.

I'm just hoping for a good, fun season to watch and getting Tyler Polley and Stokes. I like coming here because there is more up to date, varietyof basketball recruiting info than other site's it seems. I like when BTO and other's post info and not start making attacking comment's toward other Vol fan's.

Give me a Victor/Isaiah package and I'll take back all my negatives. No more wings please.

Who has said they expect Barnes to win as much or more than he did at Texas? If you're expecting 17 straight trips to the NCAAT under Barnes then maybe that's the issue. I think everyone, including myself has said the talent needs to be upgraded, I see nobody saying otherwise.

Cuonzo and even Donnie had recruits interested in us and on campus. Get them signed first. Then people will change their minds. JMO
