Adia Barnes has spoken about the bumps and bruises that went with inheriting the Arizona job in 2016.
Some of those growing pains, it turns out, were all too real.
Barnes went on Channing Frye and Richard Jefferson’s Road Trippin’ podcast this week where she disclosed the struggles she experienced as a first-year head coach of the Wildcats.
“There’s more pressure (returning to Arizona) but people don’t think that because when I was here (as a player), we sucked when I first got here (but) we were like a top 10 team my last couple years,” Barnes said.
