When Bruce Pearl was hired I immediately began to complain about him. Thinking he was a small market coach that would be out of his league in the SEC. I also stated I would eat crow if I was wrong...and boy was I wrong. This man can coach with anyone in the county. I have not seen anyone...

Wow...really something Phil can hang his annual finish up strong hat on...beating up on a team that lost to Chattanooga, UTEP, East Carolina and Houston... From a team that was ranked 3rd in the country to one that last week was ranked lower than Rutgers...freakin Rutgers... After this strong...

First - I think I have his illustrious coaching career captured in my post ... Two..yes I know the difference between football and basketball As I said, the post(which I only copied, the info comparison was not mine) some other homer took this initiative in case you cant read it was...

Just found a few more interesting quotes from another posting where morons had compared Urban Meyer to Pearl... "There is not doubt that Meyer was a superior coach in the Moutain West. He was far better than any other coach in the conference, but he is in the SEC now. The coaching field is...

No nerve, but for someone to go off half cocked and not know what he's talking about as you have spreading garbage about a coach that you know very little about and haven't even taken the time to research. What happened to all those 4 and 5 star players Bama had when they ran into...

Ohhh.....I guess I touched someones precious nerve with this one...If you could read , I did relent and say that he did get the short end of the recruiting stick and what he gets is what he gets...(although I see a second coming of Doug Roth) As far as Benson sabatoging Pearl, someone has been...

Thanks Vol Freak...I will give him benefit of the doubt but like you said, if next year we are challenging UWM, Richmond and Kent State for recruits we will be in big trouble....I dont expect much from the team next year but an NIT bid would be nice..

Fell off the turnip truck, not a Vol Fan...Division 2 school, do I have a clue...Well let me answer that one for Mr Homer VN Guru....yes I do...While I must admit, that Bruce should be given the benefit of a doubt and he did get a late recruiting start, taking players from Wisconsin Mil. is not...

Judging from the "talent" that Brucie is bringing in, mediocrity should continue to reign supreme in TN basketball... Stealing a former recruit from that Division II school he last coached at should go a long way in evening up the competition with KY, LSU and FL....I think Minnie Pearl could do...

Nope..Knoxville born, and TN grad...

:good: I still think they took the road of picking he "hot" coach...Buzz came in on a white horse after winning the NIT, promising up tempo, NC style BB...and look at what that got us...I will remain a pessimist until I see results. BTW..my choice was Altman...he was at a true Mid major and...

;) I admit Pearl did best 'Bama in the tournament (and yes I did enjoy seeing Bama loose like a true Vol fan) but come on even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in a while

:bash: I am new to this forum but I must say the overall opinion is awfully high on Bruce Pearl. I have always been a fan of Vol BB and felt they never got their due(especially under Jerry Green) but how can everyone think this guy is the savior. He comes from Wisconsin-Mil. after a Sweet 16...
