Auburn might not be that good next year but after that I say they will be bustin arze and taking names! I hope Pearl does good except when they play UT!
Anybody who doesn't feel that way has a screw loose! What in blazes did you dumbazzes expect? Pearl to sit at a grocery company pining away for the days at UT forever? The man is trying to make a living and a success of his life after an amazing streak of bad luck. What if you were out of a job and were offered a good one. Would you sit and wait because its not the perfect one you wanted? His chances of returning here were slim and none and he has been offered an opportunity. We should be glad for him and remember his days coaching here fondly.
BTW, do you morons hate Tee Martin because he liked life in LA and didn't come back to UT when he had the chance? Do you hate Jay Graham because he left us for FSU and they won a national championship?
Some of you need to join the human race.
Indirect answers not good enough for you, eh? I think the noncommital answer I gave served its purpose. I always root for the Vols, but no matter who I root for, it's not going to affect the outcome of the game, and it's going to be awfully hard to root against the man who brought UT the greatest basketball glory we've ever known. I always rooted for Johnny Majors after he left UT to coach elsewhere, so why would I not continue to support Bruce?. I can't really root for Auburn at th expense of UT, but I can't root against Bruce Pearl, so I'll just remain neutral when it comes to that particular matchup. Like I said, I don't expect that game will carry much weight anyway.
Yes it was. That was a ridiculous reason to fire him. Should he have been disciplined? Absolutely. Other coaches have done worse things and not gotten fired.
