re: Barnes is gone.

He was stale. Schools expect real results at some point. His last Final Four was when Carmelo was in school. T.J. Ford was his point guard.

He made the tournament this year. Only 68 out of 300 schools make it. I'd say he did a good job this year and in his career and let's face it, Texas is not a basketball school and they don't appear to wish to devote the resources to basketball.

Schools like Ohio State, Michigan, Wisconsin, Michigan State, Florida are the few schools who decide to have winning programs in both and have devoted resources to both and have fan bases who like success in both.

Places like Texas and Alabama will never have a fan base and boosters who want winning basketball like football.

Barnes did a good job considering the limitations he has.

He had a top 10 team this year and was considered to be out of the tourney or last in by projections

Barnes was the 11th highest paid basketball coach in the country.

Both of those guys have already turned down better jobs than Bama, hell you could argue there current jobs are better than Bama.

When Grant was hired it seemed like the best possible hire Bama could've made. Look what happened. On top of it, their previous coach is successful at a better program.

Red McCombs has setup a Kickstarter to cover Marshall's WSU buyout.

Bama fans that thought they were getting GM were living in a fantasy land. . Although it was quite funny..

A retard who wants to make a shitload of money.
