And yet still lumped into the anti-Pearl club, selective reading hoss? I liked Pearl as much as anyone, why some have so much trouble distinguishing the 2 is beyond me.

Anti Pearl is much easier to type than, the guys who don't want Pearl hired back. Talk about selective reading I never said you didn't like him, did I? I figured everyone could figure out that anti and pro was being used for distinguishing who wants him hired and who doesn't.

As I mentioned above meant to add the amount of time as that's significant IMO. However as I added, no I don't think chip will ever be back at Oregon.

Why'd you completely dismiss the closest scenario as have, Kelvin Sampson?

Primarily because I'm not highly familiar with his situation.

That's what I get for trying to be helpful. I resign, this job is too stressful. Plus I'm not pro Pearl anyway. I got duped.

Sure you aren't. You just happen to be getting all over the so called "anti-Pearl" guys, defending the "pro-Pearl" guys, and make pretty much the same argument the "pro-Pearl" guys are.

Not so much, I won't be arguing this point for the next month. You all get worked up over the Pro guys, and I get it when it's in other threads. I don't get the point of arguing it for days, they are not going to change their minds so why keep going?

The same reason you felt the need to start posting in this thread. You see something bothering you, and respond.

Getting all over? Lol I'm not arguing for or against anything, honestly I couldn't careless who is coaching as long as we win. I was trying to play peacekeeper and explain that it's pointless to argue, as it's not going to change their thought process. If you want to keep chasing your tail in a circle have at it, I personally find it stupid and pointless.

Stupid and pointless is claiming you think an argument is stupid and pointless yet voluntarily injecting yourself into it anyway.

And you can't even get this right. It's not even who wants and who doesn't. You lump me into the group that doesn't want him, when I've stated I WOULD take him back but I don't see anyway he WILL come back.

This is why coming in on your high moral horse acting like you're going to set everyone straight makes you look like a d-bag.

Reading comprehension is a wonderful thing. I wasn't saying the argument is stupid and pointless I said carrying it on for days is.

Well it's the closest thing to Pearl you'll find, as far as quality of coach and punishment received.

Neither of his former schools have come calling, and to the best of my knowledge no major school has come calling.

Good lord, are you so obtuse that you didn't know what I meant? My moral high horse? When the don't hire guys argument is generally that he lied. Thats funny.

Oh ok...so you don't think the argument is stupid, but you just get your panties in a wad because it's gone on longer than you think it should.

The funny thing is all these lists, with these hot shot names. This ain't UCLA basketball, this is Tennessee basketball. Those guys wouldn't even give us a look. Pearl was lightning in a bottle. What a shame how UT let Alabama Slive and the NCAA bully them over such a little thing.

You call me obtuse and you continue to not only generalize the entire discussion, but you say the "don't hire" guys argument is "he lied', when the other sides serves up the gem "There's a first time for every thing", an argument YOU parroted.

GTFO.

What the hell does that have to do with what I said? You said I'm on a high horse, yet the don't hire guys argument is he lied. Which is placing themselves on a high horse. Do you want Pearl rehired?

If we can't find a good, name coach to come in (i.e. we get rejected or go cheap), then I would rather Pearl come back.

He would not be my first choice, but I'd take him over another Martin.

If I was delegated as the selector of the basketball coach and I could hire anyone I wanted Pearl would be my first, second and third choice- Oh, and my fourth.

Wtf? That is not cool brah!

Seriously though, my initial point was why argue it when you know they are not going to change their minds? It just seems like you are driving yourself crazy trying. It actually started out trying to get you and BTO to see you are wasting your time, Somehow that morphed into me being pro Pearl. Lol
