Can't make the second weekend with Durant and Augustin? No thanks.
Durant was a freshman if I recall. They were very good, defeated LSU by single digits in Austin. However, you can't count on a freshman led team to get far in the Dance. Nice when it happens but not a travesty when it doesn't.

I'm pretty sure that LSU game was in Houston, but that's a small point. Barnes real issue is not getting the most out of his players and being unlikeable in the process. I remember reading an ESPN the magazine article about Daniel Gibson and how he wanted to quit while at Texas because Barnes made him hate basketball so much. Barnes is a guy that works well with a certain type of player, but the best coaches adjust their system for their roster. He has never done that.
