The Pearl lie: From beginning to end

Yes, 12 major violations that were caused by a lie that entirely pissed the NCAA off because they got their feelings hurt. Is it any wonder that they are made up of lawyers? You know the lot, egotistical for no good reason, obstinate, braying jackasses and full of more sh*t than a cow pasture.

Of course, the NCAA has never been known to be capricious in their judgments. They always, always dole out punishment on a consistent, timely and fair basis.

You can make all the excuses you want to attempt to minimize the severity of Pearl's actions, but this is a situation where Pearl has earned every bit of the punishment he has already received and still has coming.

Don't you know it. He deserves a lifetime show cause for his actions. How dare he try and hoodwink the righteous and pure NCAA? What have they ever done wrong? When you think of "amateur" athletics, you think NCAA. When you think of virgins, you think NCAA. It warms my heart every year to see what they do to keep the games pure and honest.

What that bastard Pearl has done has set the game of basketball back for decades. Never in the history of the game will a burger, weiner or pig be sacrificed because of what he did. I hope there is a special place in hell for him. Then Jim Tressel can sit high above in heaven along with Cecil Newton and Terrelle Pryor and poke fun and make jokes about him. Just like the Volnation Pearl haters/ball smashers.

This is all pretty simple. Nobody gives a damn that Bruce Pearl had some guys over for a burger. The problem started when he and the rest of the staff orchestrated a poorly designed plan to sweep everything under the rug. Too bad Craft's dad couldn't have taped Bruce's phone call. That would have been sweet karma. Also, how does do the Pryor's, Newton's and Tressel's actions have anything to with Pearl? They are lying trash just like Bruce.

Yes, and there were so many hanging there before Pearl arrived. The most wins in a season, the furthest any UT team had ever gone in the NCAA's, and more wins in the NCAA tourney than any other UT coach. We'll see who can top that. Given our basketball history, we'll be waiting awhile.[/QUOTE]

And there is still the same amount hanging post Pearl. If this happens it will be because of all the trouble that Bruce got this program into in the first place.

No, you are mistaken. The haters have professed that what Pearl has done is the worst thing to happen to college basketball in the entire history of the sport. Yep, he's just ol' lying trash like Tressel, Pryor and Newton. Except those other three got to keep on coaching/playing without punishment even when enormous amounts of money was being exchanged and the NCAA looked the other way. Meanwhile, hot dogs and hamburgers were exchanged in the Pearl saga and what he has done has set the game back for decades.

No, there is an outright SEC title banner that got hung for the first time since hippies were all the rage. However, the charm of a 1/4 filled TBA that sounded like a funeral parlor before Pearl arrived will be much more appealing to the students and fans alike than a raucous sold out TBA during the Pearl era.

Yep, from here on out, everything and anything bad that happens to UT is because of what Pearl did. That lying, ungrateful bastard.

It's not my problem that Pearl wants to ignore the rules while he calls everyone else out for violations.

Under what scenario could Pearl have stayed at Tennessee and made everything work out? I know that recruits would just love to come play for a man that is setting out for a few years. The NCAA would have hammered the school so bad that Indiana's squad from a few years ago would be laughing. Don't think that opposing coaches wouldnt bring up Pearl's tactics when recruiting against him.

With the sanctimonious and pure NCAA, never. An entity that functions as a monopoly always cherishes making enormous amounts of money off "amateur" athletes and doesn't want anyone questioning their tactics. It's bad for business.

It's this kind of idiocy that has kept me almost exclusively within the confines of the MLB and Politics forums as of late. Are you really this dense?

Why do you go to the politics forum to escape idiocy? (No offense to the majority of posters in there, just a select few)

Pearlophiles just can't seem to grasp the concept of what Pearl has done to this program. I supported Pearl while he was our coach, but good God some people still think that man was God. Yes he put us on the map like we've never been before and won "more" than any other coach. But you can't look over the fact that all the possible sanctions the university is facing is all because of Pearl himself. It's pretty simple, he lied, got caught, lied again, and got himself, his staff, and the university all screwed in the process.

Just what is a Pearlophile? Is it similar to a Pearl hater? A Pearl hater has no problem pointing out the faults and fallacies of a coach while hiding their thin hide behind a computer. What is more pathetic? Pearl telling a stupid lie or someone acting like a bad ass and trashing another man over and over and over and over and over and over again because he is in the public eye and had the audacity to ruin his viewing entertainment?

Here's a clue: every damn coach doesn't give a damn about the university where they are employed. You might think they do, but in reality they don't. The only thing they care about is #1. Some of you were just late to the party to figure out that Pearl was just like all the rest (and if you think everyone else doesn't lie, cheat and steal then, well, LMAO). If you think a coach really gives two sh*ts about where they are employed then you are even more gullible then I thought.

I wish Freak would create a Bruce Pearl Ass Kissing Forum. I'd happily nominate you as the mod.

How about he create a forum where we can stone lawyers? The same ones that represent pedophiles, murderers and rapists. That would be more fun.

How would that work? Would we throw stones at our computer monitors?

Jesus, some of you guys are sad.

Yes, the Pearl haters are sad. They can't let it go. Every story, every nugget of info just has them gnashing their teeth even more. Every single thing bad that will happen to this program from this point forward is all Pearl's fault. That much we have decided on.

Everyone has moved on. Yet, you manage to jump into any thread that mentions your hero's name in order to defend his honor. It's really rather pathetic.
