Con-Man is way off-based for Pearl and I am tired of reading about it. My comments are coming from someone who has followed his career much longer than anyone on this board and any writer in TN or with SI or whoever. Salesman is the better term to use and what makes him any different than...

Please tell me that Bench Warmer is not a student at UT?

John Freaking Wooden couldn't recruit here at UT 3 months on the job. Especially after reading all of the negativity. The Dotson case highlights what I am referring to.

Maybe You'all should bring Buzz back since he did such a great job of bringing in the elite talent. Shut Up!!

They must be letting anyone into Florida now a days. Give me a break! Do your homework before you make a comment like you did. Before Pearl left USI for UWM he was rated by a very credible magazine to be one of the top 10 coaching prospects in the land. He has proved himself far more...

Let's see he beat two of your better teams in this conference with no better than 2 star recruits and a 6'5" center. I know that UT is supposed to be a great university and I am not doubting that, but guys/gals UT Basketball would not have won the Horizon league that Pearl coached in...

One last thing. You mentioned Sutton has done great things for the university. I assume you mean winning games. Now assume he was under .500 every year and was fighting his drinking problems. Would he be more, less or the same in your book?

If you feel giving individuals 2nd and 3rd chances when state tax money is used to fund their education and in the case of Sutton his $1 million job, then I guess we beg to differ on morality. Curry sold dope and should not have been allowed to get a full ride without paying the...

Pearl knew he was a thug. Why do you think he signed with MSU? That is the second chance university. But you are right he will end of at OK State because their coach feels that if he can't stay sober and clean, then he shouldn't expect that from his players either. I mean if James...

Next year will be the year as far as recruiting. Pearl got in too late as you mentioned and now is just planting the seeds. He is too smart and works too hard not to succeed. Plus, he is hungry. He got here the hard way and wants to make sure he stays for good. Great things will be...

UNC is out of the mix!!! Just went to a UNC recruiting website and it confirmed that they will not be offering a scholarship to Davis. It may very well be down to us and Arkansas. Illinois would be the third horse in my opinion because Bruce Weber has never developed big men since...

I think Thomas is a real possibility. I am hearing Iowa State on Davis as well, but that doesn't seem to jive with other credible sites. Who knows? Don't be surprised to see the kid that just left Marquette join the team after next year. Pearl was more popular in Milwaukee than Tom...

You know I have been following major D I basketball only since Pearl took the job here and I am already seeing the major downfall. At USI and UWM the game was about Xs and Os and you can see at the major level it is all about corruptness and BS. The sad thing is the story is probably true and...

I get a great laugh when someone mentions wanting Knight as the coach. How many more years do you think this old goat has in him? And do you think this guy cares a lick about anything at this point? He would have pissed off the rest of the athletic program and that would not go over too well...

Benson was a bum. Plain and simple. He has his chance and now it is time for Pearl to give someone else a chance.
