The Problem is Five Fold and there is enough to go around for all..
Five contributors to where we are today. Hamilton, The NCAA, Cheek, Hart, and Pearl.
Hamilton - Money and Greed. Most Cost effective and bargin Hire. Did not challenge the NCAA regarding Pearl's Show Cause.
The NCAA - inconsistency in punishment, not fair and equal across the board, to much time for the crime and they cannot investigate anything unless it is handed to them on a silver platter.
Cheek - Academic Standards, wants to be the Florida and Stanford's of the NCAA. Money pulled from AD and is happy with Mediocrity. Really has no clue. Evidently Micro Managing the AD Department. He has had two ADs and they are following the same Modus Operandi. Thank God we did not land Strong. Why was he even on the plane to Louisville. Cheek is trying to control something he cares nothing about and has zero experience. Not willing to pay the funding to secure a good any quality coach. Cheek Would probably let Football and Basketball die if he could. To him it is like a burden to have to deal with it. Provides Little Support until there are headlines. Directed lawyers not to give Pearl a head's up regarding the picture. In essence Hart Allowed and contributed to the entrapment of Pearl.
Hart - Based on what he inherited, has been indecisive and by doing often is a go along type AD to Cheek. Allowed Money to move out of the AD Coffers without objecting. Puppet type and allows his hands to be tied. We would have been better off than now with Fulmer as AD. He is Tennessee and has Tennessee in his best interest. Also, there would be no power struggle as Hamilton and Hart experience with Cheek.
Pearl - Go figure. First team that comes along he accepts the job. Really. This is no different than a girl that chases shinny objects. He Did not hesitate one second to throw Tennessee under the bus. He could have waited enjoyed and worked the Tournament see how it played out and then announced but he was not willing to sit tight. Pearl could care less about fixing this situation at UTK, even though he contributed to it. A lot thought he would come back to fix what he had broke. Get over Pearl because he could care less. His resignation cry was more like a kid getting caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
If you are upset don't just Email Hart, make sure you also Email Cheek, and if you are really pissed by the way that this has happened the email the BOT (to include the Governor) include Pearl if you want but the main emphasis should be on how the AD is being ran and ruined by the Higher ups.
Not stating we are entitled to anything, but I am stating that our tax payer dollars are being mismanaged through/by the Incompetency that have the responsibility of mismanagement.
At any level in the Public school system, the Administrators are usually the worst at money or project management. Cheek cannot handle the job.
