Brady has had a wonderful season on the bench -- we noted as much in a Dribble last week -- but Pearl has been the SEC's best coach. Bruce Pearl, just so you understand, is the national coach of the year by anyone with a clue. We realize Dick Vitale has picked Roy Williams. That confirms our point about the clue.
Doyel is admittedly a bit of an instigator.(utvolpj @ Mar 9 said:I take it that he is also out there writing to entertain and stir it up. CBP is just a fun guy to write and read about, but he can rub some the wrong way. Even people out here are asking and talking about UT's coach. Even the ones who don't know I went to UT bring him up when discussing bball.
