"Tennessee will get Hammered like a Nail"

There is no logical reason to believe that the program will be hammered if Pearl remains as coach. Hard to understand how Pearl has done so much that we will sacrifice the program for him.

When I saw the thread title, I thought it might be a prediction of our performance in the tournament.

Well for starters, he sacrificed the program for himself.

But seriously, we know Pearl is going to get the 1 year ban, so what is our punishment for extra phone calls and improper contact with recruits? What are they going to do, bump a one scholarship reduction up to two?

Doesn't matter what they do. Pearl is more important than the program. We keep him regardless of the damage he causes. We'll see how good of a coach he is with absolutely no elite talent.

Yea, me too. Then I noticed it was just like the other 100 NCAA/Pearl threads here. It is safe to say we know everyone's opinion on the subject. Let's move on until we hear the punishments.

Fire him!!!!!! Bring in a revolving door of mediocre coaches to replace him. We won't get tied up in knots worrying if we are going to get a high or low seed in the NCAA. TBA might be half full each game and if we lose, no problem, we just fire the coach at the end of the year and take a flier on the next one. No stress and no worries. Win some-lose some.

The article is also written by Gregg Doyel, one of the biggest homer-riffic Florida taints to ever grace the pages of journalism. I have a hard time ever reading anything he puts out because any chance he gets to bash UT, he does. Besides, he looks like a felon in his column pictures. Fits right in down at the University of Felons.

A lot of truth in the first paragraph..

. especially this line.... " Officially, I think that’s his 100th column on the subject, which moves him just past Thayer Evans’ (with 99 or so stories on Auburn) for the title of “Mr. Vendetta.”

So what Bruce did is worse than paying $180,000 for a QB.... ha ha ha ha ha...

Go ahead now and post, that is not the same and Bruce is a liar ect... we all know this, but com-on this is out of hand.

Now before you blast me for being a blinded Pearl loving idiot who knows nothing bout BB, I want to go on record that I believe Pearl should resign for the betterment of the program, (not because of impending punishment, or because he is a "liar" or because he can't coach", but because we are a divided fan base and it seems to me we may have reached the point of NO RETURN

But until that day comes, or Hammy grows a set and fires him then he is my coach and I will do all I can to continue to support him.

Scotty and Tobais are both elite talents. However, USC has had no trouble bringing in elite football talent after their punishments. I think it is to early to tell whether or not this will kill UT's bball recruiting. I will note that our PG recruiting has been dead for a while.

You can't compare Tennessee basketball to USC football.

Gregg Doyle defended Auburn and Cam Newton, why would you take anything he writes to have any shred of truth, value, or integrity?

I didn't intend to compare them in that the are equals in their respective sports. Just that their recruiting hasn't slowed, and there is not guarantees that ours will or won't. Got to wait and see instead of making assumptions.

Pearl will not get a one year ban. Silly, very silly to think that.

Absolutely true. Since 19 of 20 caught lying to the NCAA received at least a 2 year ban, it really is silly to think he would only get a one year ban. However, we stick with him even with a 5 year ban.
