That’s what I was thinking… seems like every year in February beginning of march barnes will step down/fired and then he goes on a run. Feels like bianco. Good luck Sunday. No problem rooting for Barnes since his days a Clemson ( can’t remember who he was trying to fight in the ACC tournament).

Bro.... the final four is ALLL that matters. Its actually a bigger accomplishment than winning the national championship.

No hate at all..just adds more power to the premier basketball conference..we run all sports

Not a Tennessee fan, but all Longhorns are Rick Barnes fans so I hope y’all can pull the upset. First class human being, best b-ball coach we ever had, and just a good guy.

Just to show how impressive Rick Barnes taking Tennessee to three consecutive Elite 8’s is, here’s a list of Hall of Fame coaches who never made three straight Elite 8 appearances after the tournament expanded to 64 teams in 1985:
Jim Boeheim
Jim Calhoun
Dean Smith
Gary Williams
John Thompson
Jay Wright
Bob Knight
Lute Olson
Nolan Richardson
Eddie Sutton

Michigan will be a damn tall hill to climb.
I think that Ament will be the key to the game. Good luck!

zero final fours in over 100 years

I think it is hilarious that Barnes continues to win. One of the consistently good coaches in the second tier of college basketball
