Georgia State Men's Basketball Coach Rod Barnes was fired today and will not coach the Panthers in the CAA Tournament beginning on Friday in Richmond. Assistant Coach Paul Graham will assume the helm and will lead our team vs. UNC-Wilmington and any further should we win.
This move has received national attention on ESPN and Fox Sports. At one point, yesterday afternoon Rod Barnes was a trending topic on Twitter.
Per our guy Ken at the AJC, we will buyout the last year of Barnes' contract which is estimated at $267,000.
What is truly amazing to me is both local and national writers who have not seen us play a single game are smashing us. It's time to get serious about basketball again.

AJC: ESPN Gameday Crew to cover 'Bama game
Great work by Ken to grab this.
Other tidbits:
-ILB Olefemi Opanubi was ruled out for the year but has been running and cutting.
-P Bo Schlechter is pretty much a go for the game.
-Practice until Saturday will be harder for back ups and younger guys. Great experience for the players and great opportunity for the back ups to get 1st team reps.
