Rick Barnes owns Cal

Who isn’t starting to own Cal is the better question
Cal got out coached by Bo motherfucking Ryan
Barnes has won 3 of last 4 in Rupp. Cal has had top 3 classes, Barnes top 35.
Let that sink in.
Let that sink in.
Remember the Rick Barnes jokes on this board?
Rick Barnes has taken his name out of consideration for being the butt of our jokes.
Nothing to prove wrong. Rick barns is Cals daddy.
Barnes has won 6 of last 9 against Cal, or Tennessee has won 6 of Last 9 against Kentucky. For all who say that Cal needs one more year, think about that.
Since 2015 Cal is 9&13 against Barnes and Bruce Pearl .
It's ok though because Cal does better in the postseason. Or at least, with some fans it's ok. I personally think it's an embarrassment.
Yet Kentucky’s fan base still makes these two out as to be the butt of the joke
Exactly. I'd throw sorry *** Tom Crean in there as well. It's embarrassing.
He is recruiting and has a good mix of veterans. That has always been the special sauce. Easier said than done.
one is a better coach
Cal is not going to dazzle you with X's and O's, never has never will. He wasn't hire for that. His claim to fame is recruiting the best high school players, and getting them to play together at the right time. He was quoted at his first press conference " l recruit the best of the best." This is where it has dropped off the the last 5 years. The best of the best are not coming here. Of course he still getting good talent, but not the elite. This good talent is still leaving for the NBA. The past five years, he has reloaded with good talent and grad transfers (if the is no good returning players). This years class was over rated with no point guard, and the grad transfers are under performing. Bottom line is, his best teams have returning players, until Cal stops pushing players to the NBA, this disaster could happen again.
And out coached by Kevin Ollie, Bruce Weber, Tom Crean (Indiana 2016 2nd round)
And freaking Walter McCarty
Even sadder, I saw this stat....
The Vols have overcome double-digit second half deficits in five of those six Tennessee wins.
This should tell anyone paying attention that something's going on well beyond "this year", "these players just suck", and "covid". We've been conned by a pro.
If Cal starts getting generational NBA talent again, we will beat most of these three star laden teams. Until it really matters.
