His constant blame game and throwing players under the bus is tiring. He’s wasted so much talent and his in game decision making is abysmal. The game has passed him by. For the fifth highest paid coach in the game the results just aren’t there. No shot he gets fired this year or even next so it’s just a waiting game till he retires I guess.

Meh, let's see how the season unfolds. We could do A LOT worse than Rick Barnes. I just want to make the dance every year.

It's about time...I miss the days of Donnie Tyndall or Wade Houston and 9th and 10th place finishes in the conference.

I long for days gone by...when you would accidentally leave your car unlocked and someone would stick UT basketball tickets on the dash in an attempt to get rid of them.

We've played 15 games so far this season...we've already won twice as many games as Houston did in the 93-94 season and have won as many conference games (only playing 4) as he won in a 16 game conference schedule (2).

Georgia has only won 5 games so far this season...that's as many as UT won all of the 93-94 season.

For those who don't remember what bad is...that is what bad is.

Bump...

Highest paid College Basketball Coaches 2022;

1. Calipari - $7.04 Million (Barnes has beaten him 3 of the last 4 head to head)

2. Coach K - $6.1 Million (Currently #9...history of winning)

3. Jay Wright - $5 Million (Beat UT h2h in November...Currently #10)

4. Chris Beard - $4.7 Million (barely beat Barnes in Austin...would love to have that one back...currently #20)

5. Rick Barnes - $3.98 Million (Currently #13)

6. Tom Izzo - 3.98 Million (currently #19)

7. Bruce Pearl - $3.9 Million (currently #2)

8. Buzz Williams - $3.9 Million (currently unranked)

9. Fred Hoiberg - $3.81 Million (currently unranked and last place in Big-10)

10. Chris Mack - $3.8 Million (currently unranked and 11th in the ACC)

It seems like Barnes' performance is in alignment with his pay ranking. Pearl is undervalued...but other than that...it seems to make sense.

Lol, what in the world is Hoiberg doing in the top 10? He took Iowa State to a couple of Sweet 16s like 10 years ago, and that's it.

Aaaannnnd two months and two days later: this is why we are lucky to have Rick Barnes leading this basketball program. Calls for his removal have proven to be utterly ridiculous. VOLS hoops program is as stable as it ever has been in my entire lifetime. Proud of the culture Rick Barnes has created.
