Question about opposing basketball coaches . .

[VolinArizona]

The coolest thing is that if you went to the other 11 SEC team boards and asked them "Which SEC coach do you despise the most?" 96% of the answers would be Bruce Pearl!

My mind is slipping ... what did Brady do?

Brady said something like "your coach [Pearl] needs to get some class." - Don't remember the exact quote - I'll try to find it.

Brady needs to go to class- Basketball Coaching 101.

Why the hate for Tubby? He's nothing but class, never poormouths anybody.

Yeah, that Final Four berth last year was the product of pure stupidity.

They didn't get there because of Brady's coaching prowess. It was pure player talent.

In fact, most of the basketball-minded people that I know state that LSU got there IN SPITE OF Brady.

Would those be the same "basketball minded" geniuses who think Tubby can't coach?

Wrongo.

Tubby can coach. He's a good coach, not a great/elite coch.

That's interesting. I went to UNC, so obviously I hate Duke. However, I also have a tremendous amount of respect for Coach K and Duke's program. I really don't understand what there is to dislike about Roy Williams or Coach K.

so it's a couple days late, but been shoring everything up at school and made the drive back to the parents house. I thought the world of Dean Smith. Very respectable guy, I found no faults with him. I've just never been a Roy guy. Something about the way he carries himself just seems phony to me. I agree with hat. I can only imagine myself rooting for Carolina against Al-Queda.

Here's what I could find. The following quote comes from part of a story at http://www.wbir.com/news/archive.aspx?storyid=31401

BATON ROUGE, La. - The Tennessee men's basketball team took one too many knockout-sized shots last night at the Maravich Assembly Center in losing 88-74 to a big, athletic LSU team.

But the most piercing shot might have come after the game.

LSU Coach John Brady, just before he went on his postgame radio show at press row, questioned Tennessee Coach Bruce Pearl's class.

Brady made the comments with several reporters sitting within earshot.

"Tell their coach [Pearl] to show some class," Brady said to someone standing behind him. "What's he doing holding up Bradshaw's hand to the student section? Show a little class. Act like you've been there."

I imagine that's why Brady's name has been showing up on this thread.
