In this episode of the RTI Podcast, managing editor Nathanael Rutherford interviewed Gene Henley of the Times Free Press to discuss some Tennessee basketball topics. How much blame does Rick Barnes deserve for the Vols’ performance this season in men’s basketball? Is it fair to say he “took two years off” in recruiting before the 2019 class? Also, was Josiah-Jordan James overrated coming into Tennessee, or were expectations simply too high initially for him? Did Lamonte Turner’s injury set back the Vols as much as we think, or were they always destined to have a rough season this year?
