Heard boosters talking around me at game yesterday about Pearl. They think UT will have no choice but to fire him when all is said and done. What ya'll think?:fool:

Tell the whole truth Pearl. This is your only chance to put this all in the past and to never do it again.

If the NCAA lets out one violation at a time, this could drag on forever, which would be more damaging than releasing it all at once. Just get it out there and be done with it! And don't cry. Take the punishment like a man.

How in the world could you assume those people were boosters? The only way you could have possibly even guessed is if they actually directly referred to themselves as boosters. Now I'm curious; did any of them say that?

Boosters stand out like a bad toupee. You can spot 'em from a mile away.

They wear big badges with the word BOOSTER on it. Orange jackets and polyester pants with stretch band waist also are dead give aways.

Yeah good point. Let's not begin the argument, "oh, where is bruce pearl going to be coaching next"?

Cus I tell ya, if its not here, we will be wondering why calliperi keeps beating ut so badly.

Yes, because Pearl has just owned UK since he's been here.

They were boosters...if they were not then I wouldnt have said they were. They were just shooting the pre-game BS about UT sports and I overheard....that's it...period.

you do realize that lots of people on here would be considered "boosters" right?

Gut feeling? New AD soon? What are you basing this off of, if I might ask?

connecting dots based on conversations with people that are involved with program... don't believe all the issues have come out yet but what is there is damning. More would jsut make things worse.

Based on when NCAA likely to respond doesn't make sense to make a move right now with season around corner.

I'm not sure that's true. Jerry Green had an almost, if not better, winning percentage against UK as Pearl.

Jerry Green 1997-2001 89-36 71% overall
3 - 5 vs UK 38%
Bruce Pearl 2006-present 126-46 73%
4 - 7 vs UK 36%
Ray Mears 1962-1977 278-112 71%
15 -15 vs UK 50%

One thing to consider in the overall %'s is that Bruce has beefed up the schedule to include OOC marquee games every single year. Green didn't play near the RPI that Bruce schedules IIRC.

Go Vols!!!

I'm fairly certain DeVoe's numbers against UK stack up just fine against Pearl's.

Too bad the bar isn't "being competitive with UK." It is a good thing don't get me wrong, but we can lose consistantly to UK and still win more games and go farther in the tourney and I could give a flip about 2-3 games per season.
