Von Pearson Update

It's smart to get an attorney involved, even for a simple questioning. Sure, you may have done nothing wrong, but they know the law far better than the average joe. This ensures you can properly clear your name, and avoid saying something off that could prevent you from being cleared, or even charged with something minor in connection.

Thanks Dooley.

Tony Basilio reported yesterday, that, speaking of Von :

"His plight is disgraceful. Butch Jones is telling folks behind the scenes that Pearson will be back once this clears up. Tennessee expects nothing to come of it. My police sources tell me nothing will come of this. So, what's the rub? And why do we know about this even though he hasn't been charged."

Thank you for bumping this with something decent. Usually this gets bumped out of nowhere with some nonsense debate material.

We will know soon enough. Fall camp is less than a month away.

Never listened to this radio show but Basilio calls himself "throaty"?

Just looking for updates.... I do indeed hope Von is cleared and able to help the Vol's, because Von Pearson could have a great year and possibly lead the Vol's to win the east.......he could be that important, yes?

Been a while since TB had much news... Is this pretty verifiable? It corroborates what we've heard from some other sources, so I hope it's pretty accurate.

All points aside, it's absurd to have this just sitting there unresolved.

I agree. I guess it makes sense though. May as well let this ride until fall camp. There isn't a lot that can be announced now outside of "Pearson reinstated to a team that isn't even practicing yet."

Makes more sense to let it ride until fall camp, make sure everything is ironed out, then quietly add him back to the roster.

This is my hope/suspicion as to what's going on.

Could be waiting until after SEC media days as well. Why let something like that be front and center when there will be much positive to talk about.

From him posting that picture I bet he just received news that he would be reinstated. Make it public tomorrow or Tuesday whenever media days is for us?

Why in the world would you bring attention to this on as big of a stage as media days? Yeah lets not do that. Even if we think he is innocent. Nothing but negative press would come of that. That said, I obviously hope he didn't do it either

The smart thing to do is reinstate him quietly with no actual announcement unless someone asks. Then Von can make everyone forget by going out and having an all American like year.
