Im sure you're being sarcastic, but I heard today, that the main reason Slive got involved was in hopes of limiting the NCAA's punishment (i.e. being proactive).

Yeah he was trying to lessen the blow. Either way he is still a douche bag.

I'm selling this one. What information would Slive have in advance of the infractions committee meeting? I mean...it's all just speculation at this point. Has he reviewed the response UT was preparing? Does he have any foreknowledge of the legal rationale likely to be applied in this case?

I doubt it.

Depending on how the university and MH handle this the basketball program could move on just fine. Its all about who they hire and the damage control with the current roster.

There is less of a chance of being crippled with Pearl gone and us being able to replace him, instead of getting bent over by the NCAA.

^^ Yes, well said. I continue to be amazed at the number of posters who seem to refuse to understand this.

He was previously a lawyer that represented AD's that went before the Committee on Infractions (including Illinois with the Deon Thomas/Pearl deal, though I think they fired him), so I'll say he has some understanding of the process.

Not sure how much to rely on the estimated punishments, because I think they are supposed to be determined at the hearing. Would it shock anyone if the NCAA had their mind made up, though?

Who would want to come here with all that is hanging over the program?!?! It is not as good a job (to outsiders) as we like to think it is, and that is just a fact. Another Pearl that will endorse UT tradition as he did will be hard to find. IMO

And who is responsible for putting UT in this position???

Normally, I don't mind your posts 99gator, but this is just dumb and inflammatory. Of course it will be in the University's hands. If you're here to trash on UT, then please ****.

I hate that Bruce Pearl had to leave, but he had to. I don't think it's arguable that they had to dump him. To think otherwise is laughable, IMO.

Bruce Pearl has no one to blame but himself. Getting made at others is silly (whether or not they should be fired as well).

I wish coach BP well, unless he winds up back in the SEC, but when you do what he did and get caught, this is the inevitable conclusion.

Considering he use to be one of the guys on that committee, I'm guessing he has connections.

Failed to make the connection with regard to his previous position. Interesting info. Thanks.

i am guessing most of you probably feel the same way.

If Raleigh works out with the baseball team, Hammy could be a solid 3 of 4 with his coaching hires (also assuming Dooley works out). I also wouldn't lump the whole of the University of Tennessee in with your original comment. That was my real objection.

Eh, don't get your hopes up on Raleigh. Great season so far, but we are just getting into conference play.

Your AD hired CWM, you need to worry about your own school.

seems to delight in sticking it to us....I loath the man. The NCAA goes light on everybody--but decides to put the hammer down on pearl. That's bull****. In years past, SEC head Kramer would have been firmly working on our behalf (he may have been a UT grad). Nowadays, Slive is just the opposite....
