Like someone else said in another post. I don't care about Pearl, just get this current clown we have coaching our Tigers the hell out of here. The quicker the better.

Like him or not, but Pearlvert would kill it in Memphis. We know it and he knows it.

Also, his ex wife could open up some Alimonies in Memphis to create jobs. Everybody wins.

Too late

I don't see JP leaving for at least another two years with all the recruits and substantial buyout.

Would rather lose with dignity that associate with the likes of him.

If you think it was just about the BBQ, you're more naive than I am.

Explain.

He was clean at Wisconsin_Milwaukee and took them to a S16.

Right....Cal is clean as well.

That didn't answer the question.

Sure it did.

I would love Bruce pearl just for the fact that he's awesome at his profession. Forget the other stuff. It would be hard to get him from auburn. They are an SEC team with piles of cash and are highly motivated to have a relevant Bball program. We would have to come off some serious cheddar.

Yeah because the money folks would be more willing to lose the money. I'm just saying as of today and I have zero inside knowledge.

A Pearl hire when we hired Pastner and we would have gotten the death penalty by now.

I love winning as much as the next person, but do not desire to continue feeding into the "renegade program" narrative. Pearl can coach. No question about it, but he has a track record of garbage that I have no desire to associate with my alma mater. JMHO.

GTG!!!

Oh, come on. Wouldn't you rather win a banner and have it taken down than not win one at all?

It would lead to Strict Liability 2.0, which would be a plus for us.

All I will say is our next hire could potentially bury our basketball program if it's not the right hire

Hell no....I support the Tigers, and last time I checked our coach is a Tiger no matter who it is. But I don't have to like it.

Don't forget that NCAA loves him.

They love Cal too..

And we received a unique punishment from the NCAA. IMHO. They knew Rose test issue was just the tip. And they also knew Cal was leaving. So they took it easy on us.

You're ridiculous. Pearl lied to the NCAA. Big effing deal. They got it wrong with a show cause. Look at them now. How one can't see that is quite foolish.

You still don't get it. Pearl is, and will forever more be damaged goods to the University of Memphis.

There is no amount of begging from glassy eyed fans that will ever change that fact.

Pretty sure we can hire him for something...

Got it! Mascot.

One thing is for sure is that there are only a few coaches that would come here and do well quickly...pearl is def one of them and I truly believe that to be a fact.
