Congrats on the hire guys. Tell me one school that wouldn't take getting to the tourney 16 out of 17 years or something like that. And believe it or not, Texas really wasn't very good at basketball until Barnes. Final Fours to boot. Great hire and great timing for Barnes and the program if you ask me.

Thanks Reedus. Given his bio he's a perfect fit for us and I think he will do well here. After more research, I also think Tejas made a mistake letting him go. If their AD truly felt he'd grown too comfortable/complacent then there are other ways to deal with that. The ultimatum was begging him to give the AD reason.

I liked very much that he looked to have a chip on his shoulder about it all. Sometimes a change of scenery really is what the doctor ordered.
