In an appearance Wednesday on ESPN’s “Get Up,” Memphis coach Penny Hardaway said Tennessee coach Rick Barnes was “mocking” his coaching staff after their recent game, and that other coaches are “threatened” by him because he became the Memphis head coach without any prior college coaching experience.
“I’ve always had a lot of respect for Coach Rick Barnes,” Hardaway told Jalen Rose and Mike Greenberg. “We had a situation here in Memphis with a rivalry game. You know it’s going to be heated…You know that what you get into that game it’s going to be hot tempers and a lot of competitiveness.
“And after the game I didn’t feel like he gave my team a clear understanding of what we were trying to do. He was kind of mocking the NBA and our coaching staff and I really didn’t like that. I have the utmost respect for him but I couldn’t let him do by team like that.”
