Richard Barnes (born July 17, 1954) is a men's college basketball head coach for the Tennessee Volunteers of the Southeastern Conference (SEC).
Barnes was born on July 17, 1954, and grew up in Hickory, North Carolina.
He is a 1977 graduate of Lenoir-Rhyne College where he was a member of the men's basketball team.
Prior to coaching at Texas, Barnes coached at George Mason, Providence, and Clemson.
Williams was Tennessee's first player to be named a first-team All American since Dale Ellis in the 1982–83 season.
Barnes won his first post-season conference tournament championship in 1994, while at Providence.
At Clemson, his Tigers spent one week of the 1996–97 season ranked second in the AP Poll, the highest ranking in school history.
Besides Tennessee, Barnes is also known for coaching the Texas Longhorns from 1998 to 2015, taking the team to the NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament in 16 of his 17 seasons -- including 14 straight from 1999 to 2012 -- as well as a Final Four appearance in 2003.

Despite playing with just seven scholarship players for the majority of the 1998–99 season and opening the season with a 3–8 record, the Longhorns won 16 of their final 21 games, winning the regular season Big 12 conference championship by a two-game margin, and finishing the year at 19–13 and qualifying for the NCAA Tournament.

He guided the Longhorns to 16 NCAA tournament appearances.

Cuonzo Martin had left for California after the 2013–14 season; his successor, Donnie Tyndall, had been fired after just one season for lying about NCAA violations at his previous stop, Southern Mississippi.
