He is a young, energetic coach with a sharp basketball mind who will make an impact with our program from day one. I know he will do all he can to help our players excel and that he will mesh with the strong culture we have in place."

"Coach Barnes has built something truly special on Rocky Top," Morgan said. "Tennessee basketball is a program rooted in tradition and rising with purpose.

I cannot wait to start and get to work with our guys. Go Big Orange."
