In talking about the UNC match-up, most concerned about their offensive rebounding. Obviously, given the Vols' size, that could be an issue.

Likes the way his team has shot the ball the last two games but said you can't count on that every night, much more concerned about his team's defense than anything else.

Likes what he's gotten offensively from Phillips at point guard lately, but typical of Barnes criticized him for the way he played defense against Presbyterian, said he 'wasn't on edge.' Added that in his opinion point guard play was always the most important element of any team.

Biggest concern with his team right now is consistency. Noted that they've had 6 different guys lead them in scoring this year, which on the one hand seems like a positive, but in his mind it seems to suggest that he doesn't know what he's going to get from different guys on any given night.
