CRB has won two conference tournaments. By my count, the Big XII tournament record was 22-17 (about the same as his NCAA tournament record at Texas), with no tournament championships, but six runners-up. The runner-up years involved losses to Kansas four times, an OU final four team, and an OSU final four team. Which means . . . ? Coach Barnes’ coached teams won the Big East Tournament Championship in 1994 and the SEC Tournament Championship in 2022.

I actually meant to reply to cherokee's prior question about the Big XII record. Also, I didn't even realize I was the one that bumped the thread. For some reason, I thought you had bumped it, which is why I read it again in the first place.
Which means . . . I am an idiot. I'll see myself out now.

I have no idea what it means. Heck, that was the first post in this thread in over a year. Good time for the bump, though, since pdlglm is no doubt working on the 2023 update as we speak.

Updated with last year's results.
Barnes has far and away the best record against the top 5. He moved above .500 in the NCAAT (at TN). We went 6-4 against ranked opponents and Deacon moved to 5 games below .500 against the top 25. His road record continues to lag among the top TN coaches, he went 4-6 last year. 7-3 last season on neutral floors.

Whatever the potion is that CRB uses before we play top 5 teams should be bottled and sold. He'd make a fortune. I am surprised that he is below .500 against the top 25. I assume that is at UT and not over his entire career. I would assume his first two years at UT, spent getting the program built back up, is why he's below .500.

That makes total sense. Really, postseason disappointments notwithstanding, I think after his first two seasons when he got things rolling, we have only had one "bad" season, which was the COVID year when we looked very unlikely to get an NCAAT bid. And even that was a touch above .500 for the season I think. The guy just rarely puts out a bad team, or even a team that isn't ranked or just outside of being ranked. He's about as consistent as it gets.

The Jaden Springer team was pretty frustrating “Frustrating” is probably one of the words most commonly associated with UT basketball.
