Butch Jones and Bruce Pearl

[Flipdaddy]

I see a lot of similarities. Young enthusiastic high energy with what appears to be a burning desire to win. Past success. I just hope it ends better than it did with pearl.

I said the exact same thing to my wife when we were watching the presser yesterday.

Will he paint his chest and buy pizza for the students? If he doesn't I can't support him.

 

[rcrrcr]

I see it too. Have you watched his meeting with the players? WOW!

 

[Volsbackto1998]

I have a source that he just bought a sweet bbq. Could be trouble.

It's a hemi

Not sure...lol! If he wins I don't care if he paints his chest pink and wears a tu tu!

Why would you want a UT coach to dress like Nick Saban?

 

[UTK]

Love Coach Martin, but I so miss BP.

thought literally never crossed my mind.

The more I think about it the more I like the hire. Let's not forget that he wanted to be here unlike everybody else we talked to. I say piss on those other coaches- all true UT fans should support him.
Also off topic- I would gladly take any penalty to our basketball program to get Bruce back.

Any penalty? You are big into ethics and abiding by rules aren't you?

Bruce Pearl had a stronger and lengthier resume than BJ.

OK man, we get it. You don't like the hire. But can you just cool it until we see him coach a game or two please? It's getting old.
