Hatvol, Voldad, Lawvol, and bigpappa.....They have fought me for two weeks on how Pearl needs to exit.

Great win for the coach. Great win for the team. With that said, if we had lost I would be complaining about him going into the “prevent offense” in the second half. But we did not lose so I tip my hat to him.

However, just as I did not call for his head after the Florida loss I am not going to coronate him for this victory. It is still just a regular season win. Let’s see how far he takes us in the post season.

Good points, but as someone pointed out on another thread, this game is important in that it will aid us in getting a higher seed in the Show, possibly prolonging our tournament shelf life...

This was a big game for seeding; let's hope we take advantage of this momentum.

I have never said Pearl needs to be fired; I like how you're resorting to flat out lies now.

Find my post that says Pearl needs to be fired and put it on here. Otherwise, shut up and go study Algebra I.

O.k. I only went through about five pages of fifty but here is what I came up with right off the bat:

LAWVOL SARCASTICALY WRITES:
Hey, sharing a "division title" with South Carolina last year is the kind of accomplishment that will get Pearl into Springfield.
To me, the division title claim is just a loser's excuse. Failmer used that continuously when being criticized. When it gets right down to it, the division title is meaningless, especially considering our failure to ever take advantage of the high seed and bye it gives you in the conference tournament.
Pearl's salary averages $2.2 million. So, I guess you could put him up there in front of Roy Williams. But hey, they are very similar coaches. Pearl only has 7 fewer final fours and two less championships.
No, the good recruits want to play at a place that doesn't pride itself on hanging conference division title banners.
I refuse to believe that, Hat. It is not possible for UT to have gone to a Sweet 16 without Pearl at the helm
Didn't you know that when student athletes get in trouble, it's never the coach's fault unless we are talking about Urban Meyer and UF.

LAWVOL WRITES IN RESPONSE TO FINDING A NEW COACH: I don't see him leaving Gonzaga. He has been there forever and had his name mentioned in several high profile jobs

VOLDAD: I can find your negative posts about CBP and post them here if you like. Just let me know......

Where does it say that he needs to "exit" or be "fired" like you claimed?

I love how the two of you minimize the things CBP has done here in five years, suggest other coaches, suggest we are paying to much for a head bball coach and we could do better, complain constantly about his coaching, and then when we win a big one run over to the other side. Its laughable. Fair weather fans.....Typical..... You could drive the bandwagon.

Why are you not posting your norm: We need to get rid of CBP.....we can afford a better coach............SEC East crowns dont mean anything........etc.....etc....

I guess that wouldnt be real popular right now.

look i'm for pearl and all

but why are you taking the time to follow him around or call the others out (by name as you do later on) on this; no one was saying anything negative about him before then in this thread

that's just like starting fights almost...

Hey you didnt go through two weeks of debate witht these guys. If you are going to hate on Pearl then dont jump back on the bandwagon after we beat the number two team in the land. Fair weather fans are a pet peeve I cant help it.

Call what you have been doing "debate" is laughable.

that's fine and i understand a bit

but in this case you started it and you end up looking like the bully here....almost like you're in the old west and walked into a bar and immediately shot a guy

it's one thing if they're talking smack or negative and you come on/in; it's another thing to start something without them being there or to call them out first though

IMO, our seeding depends on how we fare in the SEC Tourney.
