Vols coach Bruce Pearl gets $200K raise

Two of those "pathetic" coaches have gone every bit as far as Tanning Bed in the NCAA Tournament. Also, what does your rambling diatribe have to do with Bronzer Boy going on sabbatical at the start of the July evaluation period?

I will call you the babbler tonight, your insults are what's pathetic. Like a Batman Character - the 'Babbler' goes on rampage after rampage against a successful coach who is trying to elevate the school to elite status. Or perhaps you would prefer to change your name to 'Whiner BasketVol' which might be more accurate.

Oh and last I checked this thread was about his raise and extension, not your own personal diatribe about him coaching a team in Isreal.

Last I checked, the next semi intelligent post you put forth will be your first. I'm quite certain whether or not a guy shows up to do the job he's getting paid to do is relevant to a thread about his contract and salary. I do realize that kind of higher than amoeba logic is too much for you. Thus, I'll simply drop you in the ignore bin with the rest of the mental single cells. Have a nice day.

what does him coaching a team in Israel have anything to do with him elevating UT basketball to an elite team? Is UT giving him the money for travel expenses? His job is to bring in talent and coach UT.

Because if he wants to take this team to an elite level, there are much better things to do than taking a vacation to his Motherland.

I understand the regular season champ means something (should mean more than the tourney champ but anyway) but I really don't think the SECe champ is something to celebrate. The last UT coach who started touting those is.....

Well that's what I mean. We were sec regular season champs last season with lofton and smith. Does anyone know, did we get a trophy for it?

Then ignore this, you self righteous pathetic excuse for a guru. ,,,,The Guru status which you then made into a card and then took down to Walgreens to laminate and show your few friends should be revoked. Your negativism with no real solutions offered is not taken for
anything other than what it is, compensation for your own failures and jealousies over someone elses success. But you didn't read this ..... did you? Have a nice night.

You act as if that's a surprise. Morons write idiotic things. It's what they do. I prefer people not quote the flatearthers and mouthbreathers I have placed on ignore. However, this one gave me a good enough laugh that I can't complain.

My question would be do you carry that laminated card in your wallet? Or do you hang it from the mirror of your vehicle of choice?

Either way I've gotta get one of those cards...

I don't have a card. I simple have "Guru" tatooed in orange on my forearm.

Wow. Must be a story behind hatvols' hate for Pearl??? Since I don't live on here, I'm sure I missed it. Love or hate Pearl, which I do neither, bottom line is he's filled a lot of seats. Football or basketball, it's all about attendance for Hamilton. Kiffin haters have been encouraged to pull for another team. What about Vandy or Memphis? Not too late to jump on the UK bandwagon. Face it, Pearl is here for awhile. He loves his bank account as much as hatvol loves his. More basketball insight and less hate-filled diatribes please.

Actually HV and BPV are two of the more deserving GURUS on here based on knowledge of sports and the gift to gab.

I realize SEC e winners is not much to place on the resume, but it does point out that we were better than two of the more elite programs in Kentucky and Florida. And two of the better, more well respected coaches in the nation.

I can't speak about BPV, don't know if I have felt he puts other people down to make himself look superior, but if being pompous is a gift, then you are correct about HV. :good!:

Of course I do, but let's be clear: I'm no Guru. That's reserved for the truly gifted.

Congratulations. We were barely better than Kentucky in their two or three worst years in their history.

:clapping:

Give CBP a raise! As for Florida - everyone with a little common sense knows that their 2 NC were a perfect scenario and someone like Buzz Peterson could have won a NC with that squad CBD had. What has he done since? What did he do before? He has been there quite awhile and had a bit of success but mainly underachieved come tourney time. He's a good recruiter and an above average coach - but he put together one of the best 5 or 6 players with amazing chemistry/passing skills and was able to roll.

From my experience on the board...BPV just calls it likes he sees it. With that said, he does not go out of his way to insult others with different opinions. Although, at times it is warranted.

BPV has my respect as a B-Ball informant. FWIW.

What the Hell are you talking about? Kentucky has been so pleased with the last four years that the two coaches presiding over those seasons are elsewhere.

That's the point, both you guys make great contributions to the site, many times with humor. I really don't see any difference. And its not negative or self defeating all the time.

Back to football, Pearl is in Isreal, most likely enjoying his new raise, his new extension, and buying new Hannakah (not Jewish so don't know if this spelled right) candles from the Holy Land.
