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

[bleedorange0037]

My thoughts exactly. But then again, has there ever been any rhyme or reason to why Mike Hamilton does the things he does. More times than not, he just leaves everyone shaking their head at his decisions.

 

[hatvol96]

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.

 

[orangefloyd]

Hey it only took 30 years to find a replacement for Mears. Maybe we will do it this time in 25.

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.

Whoa! Stop this whole thread...are you trying to tell me that there is no tooth fairy?

He didn't fire Fulmer because he thought the he could fix the problem. He gave Fulmer an extension to show support. He hired Dooley cause there was no one else. While you can disagree with those reasons they are still REASONS. I can not think of a single reason for saying he is not sure Bruce will be back after saying he would be all year.

I guess next will be a Mike Hamilton chair shot to the back of Brian Williams. This is insane.

He makes no sense. Maybe HE won't be back next year either!!:clapping:

There isn't. Technically it's the toothless fairy and should be now officially the Molanator.

I know! How will we ever go 19-14 and finish 5th in the SEC East with a pair of McDonald's All-Americans in the starting lineup without Pearl?

 

[orangefloyd]

I know we can hire a new coach for you to hate. 19-14 will be a banner year.

 

[Dudleys87]

Hes hoping Pearl makes a 4 run in turn keeping both for another year or two.

 

[gobigorange11]

there is only one option.... a return to buzz ball

Hamilton's comments are now national news. Already on USATODAY front page

Today I've realized just how worthless our "basketball fans" are.

 

[jp1]

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.

Now that i got my head out of my ass let me see if I can spell this out for you. I was referring to basketball success at tenn (that is who u are a fan of right?) during your lifetime. Hell buddy i refernced several threads were u point that out. My point is dont be the douche that pretends to be different when u held that point of view on this very site. And calling him bruce was being affectionate? Sorry i assumed that was his name.

Yes. It's completely monetary.

 

[HawaiiVol]

Simple. The rat is in CYA mode and really does not care about his athletes. This timing should help us get Phil as AD. heh, heh!

I sincerely hope not. Worst. Idea. Ever.

Good point. Fools who value the continued employment of a lying fraud over the overall well being of the program are awful.

Exactly. On VQ there are people saying things like they'll never support UT Basketball again and "Bruce Pearl is UT basketball". Pathetic.

Volquest, basketball wise, is basically the National Bruce Pearl Cheerleading Club. They literally make me want to vomit.

 

[volwarrior33]

I totally agree! I drove down 9 times from Coolumbus this year to support BP, Hoops, program and this. I'm out now if BP is gone. Donations, tix, support.

God love Bruce. Thx for the best basketball ride ever! I'm sick over this.

Endless entertainment over there tonight.

Endless entertainment over there tonight.

Not really on topic, but while we're discussing hilarious message board comments, Auburn fans have provided for some great entertainment over the last few months.
