Yep. 6 year, 200 game miracle.
Whoa taking things out of context and exaggerated much?In this forum in the past week I've read where Pearl wasn't a good floor coach and now it's being implied that he didn't develop talent.
Pearl must be the luckiest coach. Ever. Made six straight tourneys here with no players, no development and no coaching.

You seem to look for every Pearl/JP related post to argue/comment on in all honestly. All decent coaches develop their players to an extent, I'm pretty sure any player could tell you that.
When was the last time I mentioned Derek Reese? I loved him as an underdog, similar to the role Lew Evans plays.My man crush on JP has become kind of a running joke.
I'm not exaggerating on Pearl. Some posters on this board are slowly trying to rewrite history about his tenure here. It's absurd.
I love Derek Reese's only fan coming on here and implying that I'm being bias though. That's a good one.

Nope. Maymon was healthy under Pearl and his knee started bothering him during his Sophomore season under Cuonzo.
Based on Auburns play so far part of me wonders if Forbes and Shay were his coaching keys while Pearl was the face/recruiting machine. That said I miss me some Pearl and always will. Barnes is great though

I only say that because the only time you seem to respond is when someone states an opinion on Pearl/JP. Pearl had a lot of good, but his last year really tarnished a lot of what he accomplished.
Shocker. I don't like either coach, but to give Cuonzo more credit than DT for helping Josh get to the NBA just exposes your agenda again
I've limited my posting in this forum by choice.
I've never missed an opportunity to brag on JP.
Probably don't miss many chances to correct people who try to crap on Bruce's time here. The most fun six years of hoops we may ever see as Vol fans.
It was a fun time while Pearl was here. But i put him in the category as other coaches that are really good recruiters to their style but very bad X's and O's coaches. Pearl let his guys play a fanatic pace at times. Freeballing three's and playing uptempo. I like our solid defense and offense wjth a purpose. The excitement is coming. Maybe not the same level as Pearl. But i doubt we have to worry about any more illegal barbecue parties either.
Maymon's knee was an issue late in his career, not while Pearl was here. His issue with Pearl was accepting his role as a post player. He fancied himself as a perimeter player and it played a role in his transfer from Marquette to Tennessee.
