Chris Low is now reporting Bruce Pearl is out at Tennessee

We have as good of facilities as anyone in the country and can offer as much as anyone in the country. People who don't think UT can go out and get a big name continue to show their ignorance.

Plus an AD that cares about basketball.

you will be soundly disappointed when the Big fish don't bite when TN goes calling. We will NOT hire a big name coach.
 
What's the old cliche...don't kill the messenger? No, this came from the top---the puppet masters. The "why" (poor timing of MH's (Tuesday) comments) remains to be seen...
 
This should not be news to anybody...... did you see the picture of the players in the paper on selection Sunday, they knew the era was coming to an end. Everybody knows except the Pearl homers who are in denial. Unfortunately, Pearl has brought this all on himself. He could have continued to be the king of the UT sports department for years to come, however……..it is now time to part ways.
 
Other than Wade Houston & Buzz Peterson, it's a pretty good track record.

Note: Can't really judge the KO era, because he took over such a wretched program and was only here three years.

Also, Dickey didn't give a darn about men's basketball.

Yup.
 
This way people are prepared and he won't catch as much crap for firing a coach who just beat Duke.

Soooo, you're running with the "to big to fai...um.. fire" defense.

Tell ya what, if CBP pulls off the Duke upset after Hamilton pulls this stunt, maybe we should do some "soul searching" of our own.

This is pretty indefensible. JMO
 
You had no idea what you were talking about and then you tried to pretend like you were joking the whole time and being sarcastic. Nice try champ! :hi:

Wow, I feel sorry for you my man. Really, I do. I apologize for the sarcasm that's got you all bent out of shape.

You've got to be kidding me.

Think what you want little guy.
 
I don't understand how anyone can say that MH was forced to make this statement, that quite frankly does not make any sense from any standpoint. It is unacceptable that this could not wait until after UT had finished the NCAA tournament, MH has literally just fired himself.

Today has become a complete fiasco and is embarrasing for all parties involved including the fans. I never had a problem with MH and certainly never had voiced an opinion about him up until today, but he absolutely has failed the university with what has gone on today and I am disapointed to the point of anger.

At this point the only way we can save the program is get Scotty and Tobias to stay, otherwise next season will be a debacle and it will take even long to rebuild. I think the only way this is possible would be to hire an NBA coach of some sort that those kids would want to play for.
 
That he never said Pearl was out.

He didnt say that. He said that Pearl hasn't been fired, which is, by all accounts true. He's backtracking without actually doing so. His response has nothing to do with his previous comments regarding the future.

That is the problem. If he beats Duke it still does not matter. Bruce did it to himself. You would rather have wins and have a high chance that one day they will be taken away. Days after Pearl had a crying session saying he had learned his lesson, he breaks the ''bump'' rule and does not tell a soul. Sounds like someone I want to have coaching for UT.
 
So basically Chris Low got an angry call from his source and had to try to save face.
