Well, at the risk of making this another Pearl v Barnes discussion, there really is no proof that Pearl is “better”, and even if he is, it isn’t exponentially better.
Honestly, and this'll sound like sour grapes... if he doesn't want to run with this squad, _ him. He'd be the centerpiece on a team with guys that could get him the ball in a spot to do something with it. If he wants to overthink it, as much as it'd suck, go ahead. We'll see ya possibly twice against a filthy, aggressive defense that would suck to go against
It’s not as if he’s repeating it every 5 minutes, it was earlier this afternoon that he stated it...my guess is that the UT staff hasn’t been told no by Smith, thus they still feel in it and therefore Lewis is kind of holding status quo. He’s said multiple times he doesn’t know what Smith is going to do and also said don’t discount Auburn, I just think he’s kind of in a holding pattern until hearing something.
Meh, this has been debated over and over here so many times... but nobody forced Pearl to lie about who was at the cookout, and we have still never heard an explanation for why he thought it was a good idea to call Aaron Craft's dad (where did he think the NCAA's Committee on Infractions got the picture in the first place?) in order to "get the story straight"? Pearl lied, and showed terrible judgment. That is hardly being "set up".
