Anyone hear JT the Brick on Fox radio just now? (I think that's who it is.)
This guy gives Bruce props for the great job he has done at Tennessee and then turns and takes a shot at the program.
"Bruce Pearl will be the next big hire. He has got to get out of Knoxville. There are at least 25 bigger programs out there than Tennessee."
"How about Bruce Pearl at Kentucky?", he says.
There were probably 100 bigger programs than Tennessee basketball two years ago but we are definitely top 25 on my list now. We can pay a coach top 25 money, we play in a power conference, and we are highly ranked in attendance. There are plenty of examples where a great coach has turned a dead end job at a school into a great job.
sounds like another analyst down on SEC basketball. Probably has the same opinion of every other school in the SEC except Kentucky. The SEC needs to have a good showing in the NCAA tournament.
