Kentucky has not contacted Barnes. Music to my ears. I cannot think of one other opposing coach I would rather have in the Big-12 than Ricky Watermelon-Watermelon Barnes. He is perfect. He keeps his teams just good enough so they are ranked and make the tourney, which is good for the conference, but he can't coach a lick. Remember the Big-12 tournament? Texas was up 3 with a few seconds left and Kansas is inbounding from their baseline. So what defense does Barnes call, zone. ZONE?!?! A defense that attempts to force a long-range shot. Even the announcers were shocked. As you know, Kansas makes the 3 and wins in overtime. Nice call Ricky. Furthermore, think of the players he has had: Durant, Abrams, Ford, Tucker, and he still can't get better than .5 on us. Keep your fingers crossed and hope that no one steals this gem.

lindsey,
1) Why you gotta hate on gems.
2) Barnes once said in a press conference "Watermelon, watermelon, watermelon rind. Look at the scoreboard to see who's behind"
