Clay Travis does frequent here. Sad that a journalist can't write his own material, or at least mention where he saw it.

Claiming failed drug test as injurys?

Yeah! The drugs went to the back of Brain Williams and caused his injury! :shakehead: I knew there was more to that situation and there was. Good grief! Remember watching the announcers talking about Brian's back injury during both the South Carolina and Kentucky game?

That's just awful! The announcers were reporting on false information. No wonder Pearl is gone! I don't believe the crying in his apologetic speech about the NCAA violations now. It was all a put-on. He doesn't seem to be able to tell the truth. That's bad news for future coaching considerations. :angry:

If it comes out that Pearl and Co. covered up a failed drug test, and actually had Brian fake a back injury to the whole country, he'll never coach again, anywhere.

I not sure if that is what happened, but holy hell if it did.

I have no idea about this drug testing thing, but the crying in his apologetic speech was always a put-on. I've known enough salesmen in my life to be pretty good at telling when one of them is good at faking sincerity. Pearl is extremely good at it. You can tell that he knows that the first rule of lying well is to convince yourself.

This is what ESPN reported from a source. Brian Williams actually didn't have a back injury and it was about a failed drug test. That's just awful! :rolleyes:

Yeah, if it comes out that that's an approximation of what happened, his career is over.

Still no follow up on the story from last night from our crack team of Knoxville journalists, I see. Must be too busy backslapping players after spring practice.

I loved hearing the on air teeth gnashing of the Fulmer sheep once they lost access after he got canned. Hopefully this happens with Pearl being put out as well.

That's not what happened. If you go back and look in the threads about williams being out 1 maybe 2 games, I kept saying, he's out for KY also then his back will be better. Nobody really figured out I knew what was going on then. People at UT knew about this and it wasn't a Pearl lie and cover-up. That was out of his hands. I'm really not sure why they just didn't say "team rules" issue. But, I did know he would be out two games because of the substance issue.

So, in short, Pearl didn't lie about that. From what I know it was done by the whole system over there. Maybe that happens often and we just don't usually know it. That was the first time I knew of this happening, but doesn't mean it doesn't happen a lot. It was by chance that I knew of this when I did.

What exactly did you know?

Also, if there wasn't a back issue, as you admit, why did UT allow everyone, including the folks covering the game to think otherwise?

Then why was this, according to Katz, the "non-NCAA issue" that Hamilton cited as one of the straws that broke the camel's back?

I just love the fact that everything I've ever said about Bruce is true. I always hated the fact the TN hired him because I knew it would end like this.

Hey, I was never on the kiss Bruce's a$$ bandwagon like everyone else. Go cry because your "hero" is gone, but don't get mad at me because I could see what he really is.

TOS is reporting that the NCAA violation in the month of March was a "current player" receiving extra tickets for the UT-Kentucky game at TBA earlier this month. It also says that the matters were handled internally and the NCAA was notified of this secondary violation..

How dumb do they have to be?? Knowing that our program is about to get hammered and knowing that the whole staff was on a short leash and they just do this like its no big deal. I think we all might look back and be glad Pearl is gone in the long run because it looks like he was just doing whatever he wanted to and thought he could get by with it..
