Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Kingston Vol]

Yeah...let's go ahead and fire Barnes. Then Danny would go hire his brother. Solid plan.

Lol the last thing one brother wants is to work for the other.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Barnes is not better when it counts

Why you crying over the regular season?

 

[UTMVol76]

That's a pretty small lineup. They would have to get lots of points playing up tempo and create some steals.

Yep, and that’s exactly my thoughts. We have no real big man, play small ball on our run bigger teams

Enjoy getting bounced 1st round

Playing small ball reduces the chances of getting rebounds.

Against teams with a lot of length, I don’t think it would be all that effective.

That’s f***ing awful.

 

[Brillovol]

Y’all can cry over UT basketball.


I’m over here beaming with pride. My 11 year old daughter just scored her first basket...in the all-star game...in her first year playing. Bout to go start a class of ‘28 thread for her over in the LV forum.

BRB.

 

[BigOrangeVols]

I’ll say this.

Whenever Barnes retires, I hope White doesn’t hire his brother Mike White to come here.

That wouldn’t be an upgrade.

Mike White is not a good coach at all. I'm thankful for that because Billy Donovan was a great coach.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

TBF, White hired Oats at Buffalo, maybe we should let him make a b ball hire.

Long as it isn’t an up & comer.

Need someone with plenty of experience.

better than any coach UT has ever had

Meyers and Pearl included. Both had better talent and did less.

If its an up and comer who coaches the modern game, im fine with it. IDGAF who it is, just play modern basketball

AKA Auburn, LSU, Alabama type ball

Hell, what they play is more modern to the NBA game, play that style

Just landed in Jamaica and saw that Auburn beat TN. WTF?

Wasn’t around for Meyers but I felt pearl had a chance to win a championship.... I just don’t feel that way with Barnes..... I wish Barnes could adapt and take the next step bc he does a lot of things really well.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

TN fans cannot be happy about anything it seems. Don’t make the final four with a young team? Barnes sucks. Lol.

Agree.

No hard feelings

This team isnt young, lazy excuse.

 

[KeyVol14]

Like I said weeks ago this team will be lucky to be an 8 seed. Huge disappointment

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

This team isnt young, lazy excuse.

Keep thinking that. Add injuries as well. But believe what you want. Barnes sucks.

 

[Nashvegas31]

I just wish he would quit beating around the bush with Fulky and say what is wrong. Everyone knows they aren’t saying something. No point of hiding it now he is worthless and it has to be something. The guy looks exhausted one minute into game

Where did I say he sucks? Look at his record at TX this is what he is, he underachieves, he steadies ships but he doesnt make them in ferrari's. Hes ok hes old school but he aint winning a conference title outright or getting past a sweet 16 anytime soon in his career.

I hate using COVID as an excuse, but ive wondered if hes having long term effects from it.

 

[BarrythesnoUT]

Just taking time out of my day to say that, having had kidney stones and knowing exactly how uncomfortable they are, I hope every rival troll on this message board gets kidney stones.

How is that a surprise? It’s pretty common place.
