Hamilton also cited "more recent non-NCAA related incidents" as reasons for why "this staff cannot be viable at (UT) in the future."

Anybody want to take a shot at what this is?

One of them is an altercation between Pearl and some UK fans that was done in earshot of the Tennessee brass in Lexington. That's the only one I know.

Didn't he just say in a not so polite way to leave his players alone? I can't imagine putting that in a statement to fire him.

The incident in Lexington was a much bigger deal to some important people than was portrayed in the media.

Pearl should have received a yellow card for that. Pretty sure that is the penalty for arguing with a KY fan.

On the 6th Ware was told Pearl would be the coach. On the 15th Hammy said Pearl's future is in doubt so is that the time line?

If that happened in Lexington, then that would have had to occurred in Early Feb. & not in March...... I'd also have to think that whatever this "non-ncaa" violation is also had to occur after March 6th, because Hamilton told a Kevin Ware, a UT commit that as of that day, Bruce was going to be UT's basketball coach.

Rucker keeps saying that the big shift was 2.5 weeks ago. That's March 5th (or thereabouts).

The incident with Kentucky would not be an NCAA violation.

Never said it would be..... I was just saying it couldn't have anything to due with the Kentucky incident in Lexington because that was in early Feb. not in March when M. Hamilton says there was a 'non-ncaa' violation that took place.

FWIW, March 5th was the day it was reported that Henry Brooks had been offered a scholarship by Pearl, by phone.

I wonder if the mystery violation was excessive phone calls on that day--like an assistant called, and then on the same day Pearl called to offer a schollie.

Fighting with a Kentucky fan? If you haven't at least cussed one of them out in public, then you haven't been a Tennessee fan long enough.

The tickets issue is the important deal and only underlines what needed to be done.

Where did this come from?

Volquest.com is reporting that March '11 NCAA violation by Pearl was extra game tickets given to player's family.


(hope I don't get in trouble for posting) if so, more than welcome to take it away.

Andy Katz says:

The non-NCAA related incident, according to multiple sources, was a violation of the Tennessee athletic department substance abuse policy by UT senior forward Brian Williams. Williams missed the last two regular-season games at South Carolina and at home against Kentucky due to what team officials said was a bad back.
