Mike Hamilton tells Jimmy Hyams Pearl did not inform compliance about bump(merged)

I supported Pearl until this mess. I still cannot see why he thought lying would be better than owning up to what he did. Secondary violation or risk a major violation? How is the choice not clear? Lack of integrity has led to his downfall. And for those who think lying is no big deal, are you so forgiving when those you trust lie to you in your personal life? Would you be so quick to forgive your wife or gf? And before you add to your nonsense about his lie being over something so simple, realize that is exactly why you should be angry with him. How is illegally having kids to a cookout worth jeopardizing the safety and integrity of your program and the university you represent? Why lie about it? Did UT and his team mean so little to him that he thought lying to the governing body of college athletics was okay? Seriously, what was he thinking? You committed a secondary violation. You own it. Slap on the wrist and move on. But no, instead you decide to lie, knowing full well if you're caught, you've committed a major violation and will face the full wrath of the NCAA. So stupid. And people still believe he should be kept? I don't care about his past success compared to what he has done. Yes, he had this team in a good place, but HE threw it away. No one else, he did it. Stop trying to find excuses for the man. He thought more for himself and getting caught with his hand in the cookie jar than he did his team and UT. There should never have been a question as to the outcome.

Sorry for the rant. Needed to get that off my chest, lol. Back to the actual topic of the thread, I don't really get Hammy's timing. Maybe he's just doing what Pearl did and trying to put himself before the program to save his job. If so, it just adds to my opinion that he should be gone. The man has done a great job with the facilities but his management of the actual athletic department has been piss poor. We need someone who can do both, and no, that is not Fulmer. People need to stop holding on to past glory and think about where we need to go, not where we've been.

You are correct sir.. We had the arena but it was not filled up for Basketball games until Bruce got here.

But yet we somehow ranked in the top 20 in attendance every year despite the fact that we were fielding awful teams and nobody cared about basketball before Bruce got here. Weird.

Hell of a time to come out with an article nailing him to the cross. Two days before the tournament starts.

THIS +1000. why now?!?!? Mike needed to stay off the tweeter, cell phones, and radios until the season was over. If he knew this was a done deal he could have waited until the tourney was over. For no reason other than for the players this is there time. What a fool. He did the same thing before the Oregon game.

Bruce will be fired within the week. Hopson and Harris will declare for the draft. John Pelphrey will be hired, keep our recruits and bring some of his topf 5 class along with him. You heard it here first.

Hamilton has gotten a lot of crap. If he hires Pelphrey, he should be executed.

It makes perfect, Machiavellian sense. He knows he has to fire Pearl if he won't go quietly. A run in the 'AAs would make that a tougher sell to the public. He simply did what he could today to lessen the odds of that happening.

NYYVol...do you still feel my post was irrational?
