What baffles me is after all that Pearl has done to himself and this University, people still get mad at Mike Hamilton for commenting on something that sensible people have known was going to happen all along.

Since you obviously know why, please enlighten me on why the AD of a major university would drop this on his team 2 days before their 1st rd. game.

Possibly to save himself or to fully sell to the 'AA that Pearl was forced out.

As someone who actually hopes to win the game on Friday, I have to say that I don't understand why he had to go on record with this now. The media stuff that the team has to do is going to be a circus now.

Hamilton's been sitting on this for at least a couple of months. The season's highly likely to be over this weekend anyway. Did he really have to come out with it right now?

Those are my thoughts as well, Hammy has shut his mouth all season now he wants to act like a fool and distract our tourney. If he fires Pearl fire him after we lose.

if it was going to come out anyway it's better that the AD is ahead of it rather than look clueless. Bad timing but I would believe there was a reason behind it

Other SEC schools would be praising their coach for creating a serious NCAA mess and lying to them, crying to the press, and then not reporting another violation 4 days later. I can't imagine why anyone would be upset with Pearl. After all, there was no basketball prior to his coming.

See...heres the thing. One can want the man fired for lying to the ncaa. However for people...well not people...specifically you to come on here and pretend that bruce is not the most successful coach in your lifetime is a joke. So get off your knees and quit pretending.

Why blame Hamilton? There are wide spread rumors that Pearl is finished. Wounder how Hamilton felt when the NCAA had to tell him about the bump violation? This entire situation belongs to Pearl, not Hamilton. This is setting up fans who are Pearl lovers for less of a hit when it all comes down. Good move by Hamilton to put the handwriting on the wall for everyone and stop the constant rumors.

Major League, Cleveland Indians, "so, there's only one thing left to do: Win the whole damn thing." Thanks Jake Taylor for the inspiration.

Give em the Heater, Ricky.

I loves me some Lou Brown.

You obviously are too stupid to understand the point I and others are making about the timing. It has nothing to do with being a Pearl hater or lover, DA.

Fact is Bruce, as you affectionately refer to him, is not any more successful than other coaches in my lifetime. That is unless you consider one elite 8 as the end all and give him credit for that beyond any thing else. I don't consider a coach who is on the verge of destroying the program due to his unethical behavior as being ultra successful, as you do. If you would get your head out of his ass long enough, you would also have to agree with this position.

Hey Hey everybody calm down. As far as I can see Dooley is doing a great job and he is the only coach on the hill that matters. Lol at one point Tennessee didnt have that good of a program and then Pearl roll along and we forget what is important in Tennessee COLLAGE FOOTBALL.

If that doesn't finally let the people with their head up Pearl's butt know that he's gone nothing will.

Posts like this are beyond stupid. Why attack people for supporting Pearl? I could care less about Pearl lying. Do you know what's worse? Lying to people you care about. Don't tell me you've never lied to your parents or girlfriend. If you have and you didn't immediately remove yourself from said family or relationship, you're a hypocrite. People attacking Pearl are living in glasses houses. Everyone has lied and will most likely lie again at some point in their life. Give it a rest already.

But, he lied again. He said he would be on his best behavior, and committed a violation. It's like cheating on your wife or girlfriend. She could forgive you once, but why should she forgive you again?

Let idiots like that go. The great thing about this is that it will separate University of Tennessee basketball fans from University of Bronzer fans. Think of it as addition by subtraction.

How many people here have lost a job due to dishonesty? This is a little different from telling a kid there's a Tooth Fairy.

Enron, HealthSouth, and Arthur Andersen are all three businesses that I am sure wishes the government shared the same lax opinions on lying as some posters here do.

What is there to be gained by saying you are not sure if Bruce will be back? If you are going to fire him thats fine, but you should not tell the media the TWO DAYS before the first tournament game. This makes no sense.
