RUMOR- Bruce Pearl Resigning (Quashed)

[volguess06]

No he isn't. I wish people would stop saying that.

No coach is bigger than the program than he coaches for, with a few exceptions.

And no, Bruce isn't one of them. We've had success in basketball before Bruce, and we'll have it afterwards. We just need to find the right guy.

Completely disagree. UT men's basketball has always been irrelevant until he showed up. At least to me and the current generation of recruits out there.

I hope you know you're absolutely wrong.

 

[Sudeepvol]

This should be interesting. If true, I don't think we hire a coach until after this season.

I hope you know you're absolutely wrong.

Yeah, I guess hes forgot about all those other coaches that took us to the sweet 16 and to the elite 8.

I may be, but I'm entitled to my opinion, which I feel like is the consensus among most people.

I guess that means you were a bandwagon fan to begin with.

Not really. If you look back, you'll see that Tennessee's had some great teams in the past.

Bruce Pearl made it one game further in the tournament than Jerry Green. That's reality.

Exactly.

Steven doesn't seem to know anything about it FWIW

[Orange Studs]

He said he would not resign.If hes gone tommorow, it would mean he was fired.

We may never know. Oh, by the way, 11 is Justin Hunter's number not bb's. He's history, and Justin is making history. :dance2:

 

[KingNick865]

Yeah, I guess hes forgot about all those other coaches that took us to the sweet 16 and to the elite 8.

Even Jerry Green made the Sweet 16. Hell, he should have made the Elite 8 one year.

I'm shocked he wouldn't just come out and tell some random person on Facebook messaging him.

Green had us in the top ten for a short stint...we were a little relevant until tournament time

Put that in stone.

Green had us in the top 5 for a short stint.

This statement says nothing about him cheering for them, he just says they have been a non factor. Saying that our football team isnt relevant now doesnt mean im a fair weather fan.

Yea thats it. A bandwagon fan. Good call.

 

[vol4eva]

Anything from Rob Lewis or Hubbs?

 

[VOLNBAMA]

need to call Brad Stevens first. If he turns it down like i would expect go after Gregg Marshall.

At least somebody understands.

Wasn't even thinking of Jerry Green when I said that. Some of Ray Mears' teams would've made deep runs in the NCAA's had the selection criteria and bracketing today been made available in the 70's.

 

[PoochPunt3rdDown]

If true, there is no worse time ever to be a Vol fan in my lifetime.

I'd venture this is the worst time to be a fan UT Men's Sports in anyone's lifetime... :cray:

Lmao. Are you shocked that's not how I know. SMH
