So this thread went well for you

Starts a thread about A&M posters being critical of barnes, every single A&M poster ITT is complimentary of him
Links a thread where one A&M poster is critical of barnes, an A&M poster links a thread were multiple VOLS posters are critical of him
Seems about right

always liked barnes and have been more complimentary of him than some vol fans. dont know WTF youre talking about
This. I haven’t seen what you’re talking about. I actually liked him and Mack as people when both were at Texas even though I hated who they coached. I would love to have Barnes at A&M over what we have

This is not how this works

Kind of funny how he’s now the complete opposite to your description of him.
His description was pretty spot on for what he did at Texas though. I’m not sure what changed in regards to his recruiting, and I agree w/you he looks like he’s developing his talent well at UT. Maybe he changed the type of assistants he has, I dunno. If you run down the recruits he landed at Texas though it’s a pretty unreal list from all over the US

He failed to make the sweet 16 with Durant and dj augustine which is confusing

Only thing I ever had a problem with where Barnes was concerned. "He's removed his name from consideration". It's become kind of a meme with those who don't like the guy. It's definitely funny, and guaranteed every time a job in athletics comes up
But he's a good coach. I bet the sips wish they had him back

Didn’t they get bounced in the first round with Tristan Thompson Avery Bradley and Cory Joseph or was Bradley gone
That was when the heat really started to turn up on him, he started landing one and done types around 08-09 and couldn’t get to the second weekend, regardless Barnes is a solid coach
That’s probably why he changed his approach. Texas made deep runs with solid four year college players like Gary Johnson, AJ Abrams, etc and he developed those guys well

Lol he went from lottery picks galore to not having a single 4* in the rotation
Posted on 2/9/18 at 2:09 pm to ShaneTheLegLechler
Iirc that year they got bounced in the round of 36

You can build out a very very good NBA rotation with the guys they put into the NBA from like 05-10
KD
Aldridge
PJ Tucker
Augustin
Thompson
Cory Joseph
Avery Bradley
And I feel like I’m missing some
Billy Clyde and Turge’s teams still fared pretty damn well against them. Barnes feasted on Melvin Watkins

The whole "took his name out of consideration" meme came about when the Kentucky job opened after the 2007 season.
Rick Barnes put out a press release stating that he had taken his name out of consideration.
Kentucky, confused with that, said he was never among their list of candidates and eventually hired Gillispie.

You’ve lost your mind, what a silly make believe topic

Love to see Rick do well, but history sez different.
He never seemed to have a plan on offense and certainly underachieved in crunch time. The final four squad that lost to Melo/'Cuse had TJ Ford at the point, TJ was like VY when it came to coach on the court/field and overcoming the coaches lack of balls.
Never got the impression A&M bagged on Barnes. A&M hoops was not good during the Barnes era at Texas, not sure they cared.
