April 3, 200719 yr Say's, if not Donovan, Rick Barnes will be the man. Not sure I like the idea, but I think it's true.
April 3, 200719 yr Whats wrong with Rick Barnes? 1. He had the number one player in the country this year 2. He is a middle of the pack to barely above middle of the pack coach - which UK fans must now settle for, for running off every other good candidate 3. He has never won the championship, which I were to venture a guess only about a handful of active coaches ever have won. I guess that makes him not a good choice for Rupp?

I agree with everything you said.
April 3, 200719 yr I could live with Barnes I suppose... It'd be ironic though... A guy we started threads about just a couple of months ago... About how horrible of a coach he was... Takes the reigns at UK?

April 3, 200719 yr Say's, if not Donovan, Rick Barnes will be the man. Not sure I like the idea, but I think it's true.Taking to people that are in a position to have an idea as to what is going on, Barnes was the name I heard the most at the Sweet 16, aside from Donovan.

April 3, 200719 yr By the way... I'm just talking about the main post in that thread... The rest of it is just "we hate Tubby" talk again.
April 3, 200719 yr According to the Sports Guy- "Tubby Smith makes Rick Barnes look like a cross between Mike D'Antoni and Mel Gibson in "Braveheart.""
April 3, 200719 yr Barnes had the #1 player in college basketball, and should be locked up for the way he wasted it.
April 3, 200719 yr Barnes has never done anything at all w/his great recruiting classes. He would not do much to excite me if he was hired at UK!
