This court looks very good

Need AI to make us a new one with Bison running on it.  Let's spice things up.

The smell would make Purdue feel at home.

Last year top 10 in scoring was right at 20. So maybe.

Apparently, he posted a screenshot over the summer of a conversation with his agent saying he wanted to leave Cincy but his agent told him he had to stay at that point. That's probably the "personal issue" the school referred to. He may have also not been getting along with at least 1 teammate publicly since he is said to have posted screenshots with one them last night.

Tennessee signs Rick Barnes to a “lifetime contract.” Dude’s 71 and, I think, has 1 more year on his deal. So signing him to something like a 3 year extension probably would have served the same purpose. But structuring it like that is certainly a nice bouquet for the school to throw his way and he’s anbsolutely earned it.

Always thought UT (Texas) was silly to fire him, had them in the tourney every year, brought in Durant….

It was pretty rough at the end. Missed the tourney and two 11 seeds in the last four years. Didn’t make it out of the first weekend for 7 yrs straight. Only one FF in 15 yrs isn’t going to get you lifetime tenure. Heckuva coach though, so I am not sure what went wrong there at the end.

It’s a football school (and baseball) bf basketball, he wasn’t getting the kind of support he needed. He ended up better off, but Texas gave up on a very good coach in him

Of all places, I’m pretty sure UT doesn’t suffer from a lack of support. Besides, Tennessee is a football school. So is Alabama, UF, and Texas Tech. Coaches that underperform in the postseason season, always wear out their welcome.  It happens. IU fans complained about Knight at the end of his run.

We should have been complaining!

I’m here in Texas, I know how UT handles things, not that this convo matters
