Memphis being handed a gift if it happens.

Prayers for Ga Tech

JP bought himself another $7m or more. Now he's played 2 schools. He's definitely smarter than the AD's hiring him.

 

[Souce]

wtf

 

[DocVOLiday]

We should all get his agent to get better jobs for ourselves

 

[gordonr24]

Georgia Tech's AD should be fired on the spot for this.

Had to check the calendar. It's not April 1st

FYI: One of Josh Pastner’s former players thinks it’s happening. And this is the first time in 7 years I’ve been unable to reach Pastner.

Why is GT so desperate? They went after Cuonzo and their fallback is Pastner?

 

[golfballs]

Must be a mistake. Probably meant Georgia Southern

Sometimes if the end is near both parties will negotiate it down. The coach not getting fired next season and leaving on own terms might be advantageous for whatever reasonable amount they can agree to drop. And Memphis would just be happy for him to walk and them not to be on hook for that $10 mill.

My worst nightmare is the Coach Bruce Pearl now goes to Memphis.....Auburn is a bigger dumpster fire for college basketball than Knoxville is

BP has been rumored to Memphis on and off for 10 years. I suppose one day it could happen.

The people protecting him are no longer doing so.
