for embarrasing the University of Tennessee on national TV. We are very proud of you and that wonderful tie you wore today. Thanks for T when we were down by 20. We were in the drivers seat for a day 1 bye at the SEC tournament and also for a 6-7 seed in the NCAA tournament but you have chosen to completely not do any single bit of coaching this week. There is no doubt in my mind that I could have done a better job this week than you did. I know I could have against Ole Miss, we had far better players than them and we get beat by almost 20 and killed on the board by far less superior players. And then today, oh lord what in the world did you do between today and Wednesday night. You have done little coaching this year. Thanks for the embarrasment, hopefully you will get better because this year you have been pitiful.

If you enjoyed what happened this week than you are far more than a moron.

If you enjoyed ANY of the past 3 years in basketball, then you should probably keep your mouth shut. Especially when you claim you could have done a better job. There is a reason Pearl is making 2 million dollars a year and you aren't.

Those sweet 16's are great man, especially with a top 5 team last year that one was really good.

No sir I am not a bandwagon fan, I have been a fan since Jerry Green was coaching, watchin Tony Harris and that bunch play then on to the Buzz Peterson years. I am very glad at what Bruce has done at Tennessee but this year has been a major disappointment. I am by no means saying I hope he leaves, I hope he stays at Tennessee forever. I just want to see some improvement, which has not happened this year.

What do you freaking expect when you lose your top 3 scorers.

Sometimes I wonder if we really do have the best fans. I mean people booing our players at football and bball games is horrible. Who in the hell would want to play for a school with fans like that? If u are a UT fan that means you back your squad when they are up and when they are down ......no questions asked!

I would love to know what Bruce has done this year to warrant the $2mil. We are paying him to coach and I'm not sure he's done $2mil worth this year

The booing at the football games is for another arguement, I believe it was justified, but I have never heard any at a basketball game. I never said I didnt back them, I will turn the TV back on wednesday night and watch them play State. All I am saying is today was a freaking nightmare, to go into this game and not show up at all is a disappointment.

if the booing affects them more than their poor play then we need tougher players. UT fans expect more than mediocre

Get over yourself.

It wasn't too long ago that UT was irrelevant when it came to men's hoops. CBP has improved this team each year. Until now. There's not a team out there that doesn't have it's ups and downs. Ask Kentucky. When talking numbers, the goal is to have more good seasons than bad.

Taxe a xanax, drink a 40, and chill.

As much as I love Bruce and what he's done for UT, this guy isn't very far off. This was a better team on day one than they are now.

what exactly does pearl have to do with missing free throws and 2 foot layups??? The players are not that good. He is coaching them, they are not responding.
