Guys making close to $2.5 million, you think Dave Hart rolls out $3+ million for him?

Doubtful.

The way I look at it is if you want to get back to winning, putting fans in the stands, and having passion about your program you have to pay for it. Our admin will probably hire the wrong guy again anyways they will talk a shot in the dark at a mid major guy that has 1 winning season under his belt and we will be going through this whole thing again in 3 years sorry to say.

Right, I don't see us spending more on a basketball coach than a football coach.

I really could give a **** about a Pearl.hire...just give us someone who.gives their all and gets the best out of their starters and the bench players...someone who keeps home court a premium...

You don't have to pay 3 million + to get the right guy...if they do their homework and find someone who brings energy and passion to the court...a youngblood with a desire to rebuild and rebrand...then a diamond in the rough will be born and Bruce and Cuonzo will be an afterthought...

Here a quick, interesting dialogue between me and Tony tonight.

@Vol_lover: u coming back to TN when we #BringBackBruce ?

@TJoneslive: Stay tuned!

Tony favorited my question to him, and then he responded. His response almost made me pee the bed.
(Yes, I'm laying in bed next to my wife thinking about Bruce.)

Dang it! If Louisville can rehire Petrino, we can rehire Pearl.

Goodnight! I'm gonna go dream of a Final Four appearance!

You realize Louisville didn't fire Petrino right? And that Petrino didn't have a show cause right?

Just making sure.

As for Tony Jones, not sure there's a bigger D-bag in Knoxville.

With that said #BBB

If tony jones would have straight up told you he was coming back I'd still call bs. Don't wet the bed over this.

@TJonesLive hard to watch what's happening with the program that you helped Bruce build. It is slowly crumbling back to medicority.#firezo!

Tony Jones (@TJonesLive) tweeted at 0:22 AM on Sun, Feb 16, 2014:
@RobM_ I'm sorry for letting the best fan base in the country down!

He has paid his debt thrice over. It's ridiculous what he got compared to the slap o' the wrist that others have gotten since. If his name had been Bama Bruce, then they would have show caused themselves.

I know his youngest son and he has told me multiple times when I ask him if his dad will come back and he says every time that Bruce has no interest in coming back because of how he was fired. So mark him off the list.. Trust me I want Bruce back more than anyone but thats just not going to happen, so don't set yourself up for disappointment.
