Rick Barnes has emerged as a serious candidate the for UCLA job, reportedly has interviewed

[McGeesPub]

Another factor nobody is talking is Barnes evangelical faith. This is not a small deal in CA anymore where SJW's are lurking around every bush, looking for something to be offended by. A coach that prays with and baptizes players? Yeah, he's going to fit right in there.

I’m surprised literally no one has brought this up.

It has. Right before the board went all "cost of living" on us

Doc must have missed that.

Just got a text saying the team is being assembled/Rick wants to meet with the team soon.

We’ll see. Not reporting (lol) anything or telling anyone it’s fact.

Not a good sign

That's bad news if true

 

[DownTheField]

Like I said, cost of living is a real issue for the assistants...and I believe Barnes may be on the record in this regard...

Anyone listen to Sports Talk? Just got a message from someone that Hyams said he's been told Barnes is meeting with the team.

 

[SDV]

If he is leaving, this is being setup to be released right during the National Championship game

Probably. That’s what I meant by my earlier post when I spoke about I hate how they drag it out. After Barnes left the UCLA interview he was probably fairly certain on where he wants to be. Just come out with it.

Cinnamon buns, on me boys!!
GBO!!

 

[landscapingvol]

Well it is what it is, if we were willing to give him 5 million we will be able to find a good replacement

 

[BowlBrother85]

Nobody calls a meeting to announce they are staying... Sounds like he is moving on. Oh, well. Another coaching search... just shoot me!

 

[itsmedave]

Oh Deer

 

[rocketskates]

Ut oh

Kinda scary. Would he meet with the team if he didn’t plan on leaving?

If he is leaving, I wouldn't let him talk to the team. The AD can let them know. Just my 2 cents.

Probably not

Look at the bright side, coaching searches are off season fun on here.

...and UCLA is going to have to write us a check. We should replace him with someone proven.

Restaurants in Knoxville offering Barnes free food for life if he stays. Maybe it's the female in me, but I don't want a man I gotta beg. Not a good look.......
