Barney is more concerned about his reputation in the conference as a nice guy before uk bb. That’s a fact. The guy doesn’t have what it takes to bring a winner. Second coaching search he led and both times he’s gone to south texas for a hire. What a loser mentality
It has been, very strange that no smoke has come out. Honestly at this point I don’t know if anyone really knows what is happening behind the scenes. It may take a little time, which on one hand sucks because we need a roster but on the other, this hire is huge.
Someone on another post said Oats is simply not able to leave Bama due to four daughters and an ongoing separation from his wife.
With the $ he makes he will be able to do whatever he wants, he can divorce her and let her have custody or bring his daughters with him. He can afford to fly to see them, he will have time off thru the year to spend time with them. He can have a Nanny and put them in the best schools or daycare that he needs.
Dude you made it on message board geniuses on Twitter earlier today.
Well I’ve been through something similar and it’s just not always that easy.
I know it can be hard I don’t doubt that at all. My parents are blue collar people and divorced when I was 10. I remember how hard that was. I couldn’t imagine divorcing my wife and we don’t even have kids to split up. But 10M a year makes it a lot easier than a dude pulling 50k trying to pay for lawyers, and child support, and all that comes along with it.
I think Oats learned he wasn’t one of the top candidates and figured he wouldn’t get the job. So he (wisely) put out that statement. But if we don’t get Hurley, Donovan, or Drew, and UK has to widen their search, I suspect Oats gets interested again real quickly.
Rick Barnes used to turn down every job in America even if he wasn't offered. Makes $ sense in the end.
Speaking of ol’ Barnes I think it’s very telling he hasn’t publicly withdrawn his name from consideration yet. Any word on this?
I think the way he handled the Brandon Miller fiasco proved that Oats could be less than what is needed at UK
You obviously have never gone thru a divorce in Alabama. In Alabama you are not allowed to relocate your children out of the state that the divorce was filed in. And really you think he will get custody of his kids instead of his wife? lol
No dipshit I can’t say I’ve ever been thru a divorce in Alabama but seeing as how he makes millions a year I could easily see him win custody yeah. Now go on back to your football board thinking about Auburn again.
There’s a Twitter account that showcases bad or embarrassing takes found on sports message boards. You made it for your post about not wanting Hurley
I made it for saying we should boycott attending UK events until fixed. I think that was going to partially happen. Not as stupid as they acted like it was.
Meh. I'm ok with that. I have a feeling I'll be on the right side of not selling out for a mentally unstable person. I'm comfortable being on record about it.
