I guarantee you I've seen Rick Barnes coach more games than you, and I'm not saying he's the best X's and O's guy. What I am saying is that he will do something for Tennessee similar to what he did for Texas, which is put the program back on the map. I think Barnes is a terrible coach, and his time at Texas was up, but Tennessee needs this type of hire right now IMO.
