If Pearl is fired...

So while this info is new to most of us, do you really think this is new to MH? Do you not think that he knew all of this when the self-imposed sanctions were given? This doesn't change a darn thing in the whole scheme of things. This is just another fan rouser that in the end doesn't mean squat. MH knew this, the NCAA knew this, and none of our opinions or sky-falling squeels mean jack schlitz

Obviously, if you say anything negative about Bruce Pearl then you are a Kiffinite, an anti-Semite and a bad person.

Obviously your making lots of assumptions there dude!

But, hey arent you one of the Kiffinites, who love Kiffin more than the program. Bash DD without giving him a chance and then bash someone who does the same thing as you, only with Pearl instead of Kiffin. Or am I mixing you up with someone else?

Who on here like Lane Kiffin more than the program? Since they are so rampant, you should have no problem providing links.

You have to be kidding, right? Do you read the football forums. If you do then you have seen the ones who constantly say "if kiffy was here" he would have done this or that. I dont need to provide links, this is plain as day dude. What makes it worse is the fact that Kiffin didnt mess up, he left on his own free will, and they still defend him, brag on him, etc.

Dont let it upset you, just continue on.

No you are absolutely, totally wrong. If you wouldn't just go spouting off without actually knowing facts you would know I am a Dooley advocate and have defended his staff endlessly this year. And I wouldn't mind if Kiffin fell off the face of the Earth. Of course, you are just trying to let the word vomit keep coming out of your mouth without actually knowing what you are talking about so by all means keep going.

Hell, if Pearl is fired, I can think of about 50 other people that I hope feel the same way as the OP

so are the 20,000 plus fans who are going to be at all home games this year supporting the program, but not Bruce?

like i've said a 10 times, i'll support Pearl during this rough time but that does not mean what he did was right, or that I will still support him if he becomes a repeat offender at UT.

And yes winning should be the goal of every team.

I would venture to say they support the program first and the coach second. If they don't, I have absolutely no use for them. Don't like it? Go be a frontrunner elsewhere.

I cannot believe people actually think we're hiring a coach who will do what it takes to win if Pearl is fired. We will not. We're getting a clean loser. I know it's hard to believe for those who actually think college basketball is a clean sport where angels win championships and lying to the NCAA about illegally having a recruit over to his house is the worst thing ever.

I don't understand this train of thought whatsoever.

It's not the cheating that has Pearl's job in question.

It's how he handled the situation. If you tamper with an NCAA investigation, that should lead to an immediate termination.

You get caught, fess up. It was a minor violation.

You lie and lie and continue to make a fool of yourself, then come out crying, well there's no sympathy for you. Now you've turned a minor slap on the wrist into a full blown NCAA investigation because you're too stupid and/or scared to admit you cheated.

Every coach spends time in the "gray areas" of recruiting.

The majority are able to self report secondary non-sense and keep it from blowing out of proportion.

Then it shouldn't be hard for you to point those people out to me. The burden of proof is on you.

Calm down dude, GEEZ!

You went spouting off first saying I meant anyone who bashed Pearl was a kiffinite. So YOU did just what you said I did. At least I asked, I didnt just attack right off the bat like you did. Learn to conversate, I have, cause Im sick of getting violations.

Support Coach Peal!

Btw mtt, you might want to check out the ESPN story right now that says that Coach Pearl knew the BBQ at his house was a clear violation, but still did it anyways...

There's plenty there to fire him right now even though some of us might not want it to happen. We'll see how Hamilton handles it....

The thing is, Hamilton already handled it how he plans to. The reason we know Bruce was aware of the violation at the BBQ, is because Hamilton spelled it out in a letter to Pearl which was obtained by the media recently.

Hamilton already has taken the action he wanted to take, which included sitting on the whole thing for a month until the LOI arrived.

It all wreaks to high heaven. I still support Bruce, but I sure could enjoy some peace on the Hill for a couple of years.

And you're not assuming a Pearl critic is a Kiffin lover? And that if someone "bashes" DD they love Kiffin?

I'm starting to wonder how many fans are going to show up to tomorrow's scrimmage, actually.
