Reportedly it's a donation to the AD.

Kinda scary actually ha. I did one of these pages for a girl who needed help w a car. It worked and we gave her the money. But I had to link it to my bank account. Then I cut her a check. There was zero accountability as to whether or not I ever gave her the money.

Yeah for real. If they happened to even raise the 5 million there is no way in hell the person wouldn't keep it lol.

So did a lot of people. A new development plus the AD department asking to speed up the process ended him. I'm not saying basilio knows something or not just found it interesting.

Basilio usually throws crap out to see if it sticks and also just in case it turns out to be right.

Has he ever been right with his info when it came to a Tennessee coaching search? I will give Tony credit for at least passionately selling his bs. If you heard him talk about Lovie Smith in 2012 you wouldn't think there was any way he was making that up.

This is patronizing. Is it really sad for Tennessee fans to miss the Pearl years when the best basketball was ever played here? It is completely understandable.

No. Nothing wrong with that.

What's sad is people still want him back.

We just fired a guy for NCAA violations. Pearl just came off a three year show clause. Are you people stupid?

The low expectations are contributing to a self fulfilling prophecy. If you really don't think it would be positive to bring back Bruce then that's your opinion and you're entitled to it. If you think it would be a positive step, maybe even the best move we could make, then don't dismiss it until someone else is hired. Lewis Grizzard wrote a book called 'Shoot Low Boys They're Riding Shetland Ponies'. I feel like that's been the battle cry of the UTAD since Kiffin left. Either we're too poor, too rushed or too broken for anyone with a pedigree to want to come here. There's someone out there with a pedigree who can win here and all it will take to get him here is money and a little nose holding. I don't want to hear any more excuses. Go get him.

Some people have reached a point where they realize they are not qualified to throw the first stone. He did the crime and did the time. Maybe that's not good enough for some. It is for me.

Sure he's a honest man that learns from his mistakes. I'm sure his ex wife will attest to this.
