This past season. She's paid the top salary in her sport and she has the top talent in a sport that is very thin talent-wise, yet lesser-paid coaches have surpassed her the past eight years with less talent. If we are going to pay so much for a wbb coach, let's at least hire the best...

All the PC and feel-good emotions are going to melt away if this sets a precedent that hinders our ability to keep Bruce Pearl in the future. Economically, women's basketball is a sideshow to men's hoops. Sometimes I think people associated with UT forget what a fringe sport women's...

I don't think the NBA is what Bruce is really interested in. He wouldn't have spent almost a decade at a Division II school if the NBA was his goal. I pretty sure a talented guy like Coach Pearl would have found his way into pro basketball a long time ago where the Deon Thomas affair...

VOLS 13 SC 10

Not according to the latest US Department of Education figures. The men's team netted over 6 million in revenues over expenses compared to less than one million for the women. What is more striking is how the ailing men's program brings in so much more women than a team near the top of...
