I have been and will be a big Pearl fan. However, his decision for the timing of his coaching announcement leaves me scratching my head. If he has as much love for our University as he has claimed why not wait till Monday? JMO

oh and.. GBO

Good luck Zo and Co.

You think the timing was Pearl's decision? Hahaha!

You don't tell your new boss "Hey, let's wait about this announcement because I don't want to hurt/let down one of our competitors. I still respect them as a company".

You say that? And you could possibly be out of that job.

Well, I glad this is settled and now we can play some basketball with all the cards on the table...BOL Coach Martin and Vols.

I saw Tony Jones in the video of Bruce coming into Auburn.

Sickening to watch that video.

CBP, in his first 15 seconds off the plane, invigorates the auburn fan-base more than CCM has done in 3 years at Tennessee.

Mediocrity, brick by brick.

I'm backing CM too. Time to move on. Pearl is an Auburn Tiger and Martin is the coach of the Vols. GBO.

Do better at what? Surely you don't mean winning basketball games.

Leadership and chemistry are great, but you better have some damn players on your team, and a coach that knows his a$$ from a hole in the ground if you plan on winning.

We will have neither.

Maybe it's because we've got fans watching another teams coach rather then cheering for ours.

Why is that? Could it be the longing for excitement in and hope for the future of a basketball program we all love? Honest question, when was the last time you were really excited to watch a UT basketball on a consistent basis?

I hope your kidding by suggesting that the timing of Auburn hiring a coach should be affected in any way by Tennessee's tournament schedule. Please tell me you're trolling me.

Yeah I'm not understanding that one. That would be like asking your ex who dumped you for permission to date again.

He doesn't owe UT that kind of allegiance.

I am an admitted Pearl lover. As much as it pains me to see him go to Auburn, I am first and foremost a Vol!

I am pledging my full support for Cuonzo from here on out as long as he's our coach. Although most are disappointed in how we finished the season, at least they made the tournament. Look how many other teams did not. We have been spoiled.

Cuonzo and our players need our support right now more than ever. Let's all get behind this team and push them for a strong run in the tourney!

I feel the exact same way. Ready to put this behind us and move on.

Wasnt meaning that at all. I just keep going back to the interviews after his suspension where he talks about how much he loves UT and even went on to say how fans should back this years team. All I am saying is why not delay the announcement? What is
3 or 4 more days. When he knows this team and it's fans have waited 3 years to at least be in this spot. I mean players are having to field questions about it b4 (BTW maybe the most used phrase in this forum recently) its biggest game of the yr.

I was pretty stoked to watch the Florida game.

Rumor has it that when Bruce Pearl arrived at Auburn airoport he simply descended from the clouds .. Did not need airplane...Auburn has great basketball tradition. Arena holds 9121 fans. In last ten years one winning season 2008-2009 (10-6).. Other nine seasons in sec ave 10.44 losses per season. Ave SEC wins in those nine years ten years..4.6....prediction: If Martin losses Iowa game, watch out.. Hart may pull the trigger...By the end of second season, i am sure Pearl will have 2 SEC championships, and 2 trips to final four...pizza for everyone!!! Not.....
