Petition to rehire Bruce Pearl

[vols 30]

You wanna make a statement stop showing up for games at TBA....sorry but 18k sold tickets to the last couple games makes it easy for Hart to justify retaining Martin.

There's that little thing of failing to make the tourney.........again.

And you said he gets no support from the fans.

Never said that, but good try.

I chose the combo......signed the petition and didnt go the game lol

Why do some of our fans think there are 2 basketball coaches out there, Martin or Pearl? Pearl lied and made a fool out of Tennessee and the NCAA, dont want him back.

You just yelled "free Twinkies" at a Weight Watchers meeting. Run for the hills!

What does that have to do with my post?

As long as this many people keep showing up to game this year you make it very easy for Hart to keep Martin regardless of this seasons outcome.

You guys want a change, stop showing up to games.

Same thing as.......good grief

Every time I read this forum now, I picture these fine folks.

In our over 100 years of basketball we have had one great coach. Puzzling why people would want to start beating #1 ranked teams again or God forbid being ranked #1 again. Hard to understand?

It's hard to understand why people care more about games than respect for their school.

That was my plan, it's fun to rile them up.

I'm fairly certain that has to be knowthevols

 

[mocfan]

That's true but Pearl still lied.

And he served a very stiff penalty.

If you look again you'll notice a slight drop during pearls final couple years :hi:

That drop in attendance is a tremendous amount of money being lost by the university. If Martin stays next years attendance will most likely be lower.

 

[Captain3484]

This isn't really the time for this, maybe after the season, but not now

If we wait till after season, A&M or Bama will act before enough backing is gained. No disrespect to current team but it needs to start ASAP

So, it's not about making the tourney? I guess we do have the right coach after all.

The drop in 2011 was due to him being suspended for 8 SEC games.

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

And he served a very stiff penalty.

He still disgraced Tennessee. You think Arkansas is chomping at the bit to bring Petrino back? Or Ohio State to bring back Tressel?

 

[Special Ed]

That's true but Pearl still lied.

Frank Haith lied. He's still coaching at MO. Calipari lies like a rug. He's still coaching. Bruce should still be coaching, too.

Im pretty sure its from sgm's personal family photo album.

It most certainly will.

My point is this though....if people are so fed up and wanna make a statement the best thing is to quit showing up to games. Remember Dooley's last couple games? The stadium was half full, that's not the case at TBA.
