Rick Barnes discussion (merged)

[K-town Vol Fan]

We’re a jump shooting finesse team. After 3 games in as many days, legs are gonna be gone, especially how we play defense. The teams built inside out are going to be much better off in this type of tournament.

And Marquette? Who almost beat Perdue without a big man?

The Venn Diagram of people who angrily post in this thread and those that don’t know how to spell “Purdue” has to be damn near a circle.

But they didn’t. Just like us.

What? Oso Iguodaro is a 6'11 240lb senior and just dominated Dickinson yesterday to the tune of 18/9, he had 16 today but Edey dominated.

FYI every game matters when it comes to NCAA tournament seeding

Great observation...this game along with Purdue will help our SOS when it comes time to seed

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Different players same coach. Hate to say it but the game has passed by Rick. Its every single year the same crap stagnant awful stretches of offense

 

[TennTom]

I love Barnes, but he's absolutely not getting close to these player's potential. Tons of experience and depth and it's just not happening. Frustrating af.

Do y’all believe the Barnes critics now?

Bring Back Bruce

Well it was against a really good team....get ready to read that 100 times

Barnes is in rare March form. Very impressed.

 

[The Tall Gguy]

This team definitely looks unprepared.

 

[7maxims]

Pay Barnes more! Extend his contract 10 more years !!

I'm so tired of watching other teams manufacture wide open looks and we pass the ball around until the shot clock runs down

I’m sick of not recruiting a dynamic pg or post. I’ve been out on Barnes for 2 years now and it’s time for UT to move on.

But we got zeigler and Vescovi! Again …

 

[Switch 625]

Time to politely show Barnes the door.

Barnes had Tennessee in Sweet 16 just last year. He isn't going anywhere. Sure it is a rough start but this happens sometimes in Basketball. We just need another Chris Lofton and we are a very different team.

FAHRRRRRRRR BARNES

You know "generational talent" is a term for a reason.....we probably won't see another Lofton in our lifetime.

 

[Pacer92]

Being exposed….like all Barnes teams are

You got a broken ZZ and unathletic Vescovi lol

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

Barnes offense doesn’t provoke creativity from the guards, which makes it very vanilla. Against athletic teams, that lack of creativity will show

Lmfao

Wish we had Uros on this team vs Bacot. This year is providing matchups where I wanted to see a brawl with Uros. Edey was another one.
