BIG ORANGE TIPOFF CLUB FEATURED IN THE SUNDAY MEDIA

The Knoxville News-Sentinel, with writer Jesse Smithey and photographer Amy Burgess, shadowed Tennessee Basketball Head Coach Bruce Pearl on the day of his Volunteers' big 105-89 win over Auburn, on Wednesday, February 15, 2006.

The following link is a slide show that accompanied the story that appeared in the Sunday, February 26, 2006, News-Sentinel, which prominently features three big photos of Coach Pearl at the Big Orange Tipoff Club Luncheon at Calhoun's on the River in Downtown Knoxville, as a part of his busy gameday, giving an interview with sports broadcaster and journalist Jimmy Hyams, chatting with Big Orange Tipoff Club Steering Committee Members Mark Hancock and Lloyd Richardson, and sharing a story with UT Men's Athletics Director Mike Hamilton and Knoxville Mayor Bill Haslam:

The Big Orange Tipoff Club will wind up its phenomenally successful 2006 year with a pre-game bash and season finale gala dinner event at The Foundry at World's Fair Park in Downtown Knoxville, on Senior Night, Wednesday, March 1, 2006, at 5:00 p.m., honoring legendary UT Coach Ray Mears and featuring NBA Hall of Famer Gail Goodrich as the keynote speaker. The UT cheerleaders and the Big Orange Banditos Band will be on hand for this festive occasion, a silent auction of autographed basketballs will be included, as well as a prominent display of UT basketball memorabilia, and many surprise celebrity guests will be in attendance.
