FartingBedpost posted:Even with a Rick Barnes team, I still think they’re the least up and down of all the teams in the South. Biggest problem is depth and when another team goes on a run you can see them lose energy. That and not being able to defend the 3 to save their lives. It's amazing that the team is as good as it is considering none of them were top-200 players coming out of HS except Grant and he was barely one.

I hope we make it to the final for obvious reasons but also because Duke will likely be the other side and one of my best friends went to Duke and we've agreed if both teams make the final we'll go to Minneapolis for the game.

A couple years ago I went to a Wisconsin game with a buddy that went there and as a show of support I bought a Wisconsin shirt to wear. Bought it from the Big10 store, still get emails from them from time to time, no big deal. Until last night, about 20 minutes after the game when I got this  gently caress you, big ten store

I can't remember the rules on quoting from pay sites but if you don't have an Athletic account get one dummy, it's 100% worth it.

Demon Of The Fall posted:Tennessee guard Jordan Bone has declared for the NBA Draft. This isn't news, we knew he was going to do that. Admiral did it last year to get a draft grade - he can always come back as long as he doesn't' hire an agent like Admiral did. The news part is he said he's not considering returning regardless of where he grades out.

MourningView posted:I kinda like Bone long term but I don't think he'd go in the first this year. But maybe he just hates school and is fine doing the G-league or Europe thing. Lot of time for him to change his mind though, unless he hires an agent. Grant hasn't declared yet but he will eventually at the very least to get graded. His chances to return are higher than Bone's IMO because he's said he wants to get his masters and his parents highly value education. That's probably just wishful thinking on my part though. As for who we have left, Lamonte Turner and Jordan Bowden will both be seniors. Yves Pons showed a ton of promise at the beginning of the season but is really raw. He'll have to put in a lot of time in the offseason to get better. We have 5* Josiah James coming in that ideally would eventually take over Bone's spot.

Supposedly UCLA offered Barnes 5mil a year (currently 3.25m at UT) and we countered, but no details on how much, but the rumor is it's a lifetime contract. Would be pretty funny if UCLA gets two coaches lifetime contracts. If Barnes leaves it'll be a disaster - Grant and Bone will 100% bail, 5*2020 Josiah James will be gone and 5*2021 Cody Walker would definitely decommit. We'd effectively be starting from 0 again. UCLA is a shitshow, I can't imagine why Barnes would want to go there. Unless he thinks he can go there and turn them around in a couple years, he's 65, I can't imagine he has more than 5-6 years in him left to coach.

Demon Of The Fall posted:I’m starting to think he’s gone. I doubt Barnes would do this if hadn’t already made his mind up. UT athletics continue to be a complete shitshow. This is a dumb defeatist take. If he'd already made up his mind we'd know about it. All we know is that UCLA offered and we countered and he's mulling it over. There's a laundry list of reasons for him to stay and the only reason that people can come up with for him to go is "well UCLA used to be good". If that's enough for him to go then...okay bye I guess. It actually reflects well on our athletic program that people are trying to hire away our coaches. e: also lol no Bruce aint coming back Joey Freshwater fucked around with this message at 21:12 on Apr 8, 2019 |

vikingstrike posted:Tennessee football would 100% use the "we're historically good, please come to Knoxville" card if it could pull in someone good. And I'm sure was used in the past to justify NFL coaches coming to town. If I were UCLA, I'd ride that as long as possible. Who knows how long it will last That's literally what kept getting thrown out during our shitshow of a coaching search so

Mike_V posted:Do any of these businesses truly follow through on their offers? Like if the coach or player gets fired or leaves the team or retires, are they still honoring their offers? I’m sure they follow through if he retires but fired probably not. I’d love Barnes to step up to the podium tomorrow and tell everyone he doesn’t want the raise, he loves the Burger at Stock & Barrel (which is loving awesome btw) enough so he’s staying Crazy how this is the only thing in college basketball going on tonight
