Auburn Tigers.

I don't follow them

are they having a good season?

I was hoping they'd lose so we could talk to their coach.

he's a terrible man with a questionable work ethic.
if that's what you want at our organization that says a lot about you

He would also get us back to winning NCAA tournament games and not losing to teams like Tulane and East Carolina. Not to mention he can coach circles around your choir boy.

Nah Perl would always lose a head scratcher...He would beat teams he wasn't supposed to but he would also lose to teams he wasn't supposed to also. But at least UT fans knew what was going to show up on the court.

Week to Week, hell I don't know what defense we are going to throw out there.

I hear he has turned over a new leaf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd have to see evidence to support that. However I don't need it because OUR BASKETBALL COACH has an impeccable record and is one of the WINNINGEST COACHES in Memphis Tiger history.

But no you're right we should fire someone who does things the right way and wins at a high level.

Please, please tell me you're kidding or just being sarcastic. You call 1-12 against the top 50 winning at a high level? WOW, double f'ing WOW!!!!

Bruce Pearl's record with the NCAA is absolutely outstanding.. right along with good old Coach Cal.

What about a coach who loses 3 out of four home games to Ole Miss (14-17) and back to back home loses to Louisiana Tech(14-17) and Providence(14-15)

You really want Pearl?
You want to go back to NCAA investigations?
You want to go back to off court transgressions?
You want academic issues?
You want to say goodbye to the Big XII?
Say it ain't so.

I could live with that if I knew that would turn into:

Elite 8
Elite 8
Nat'l runner up
Sweet 16

How about a coach losing at home to CBU, SF Austin, Tulane, and Tulsa and following that up with another 1st rd conf tourney loss, not winning 20, not even good enough to make the NIT, no postseason for the first time in 15 years........ want me to keep going?

He would not help us get in, but could keep us out. He would bring a spark but long term would be a big negative. We need to remain a clean program. That's not Pearl.

Other than turning a minor infraction into a major one by foolishly lying about it what other trouble has Pearl been in with the NCAA? I've looked but can find anything else.

I guess I think lying is a MAJOR infraction. If he would lie about a minor infraction, what else do you suppose he would/has lied about? You can never trust a lier.

Everyone lies, even you.

Ever had a DUI? Ever been fired from a job? Ever cheated on your wife or girl friend? Ever shop lifted? Ever cheated on a test? Ever helped someone cheat on a test? Ever told any kind of a lie? Ever abused a woman? Ever abused an animal? Ever abused a child? Ever been arrested for anything?

I'll bet I've hit just about every poster on this board.

Now, shut up and let's (hopefully) go hire Pearl.......

And so have all the saints throwing rocks at Pearl because he lied about a minor NCAA rules infraction. News flash: that's all there is on his rap sheet yet the saints act like he raped their grandmother...... It'd be real interesting to pull up some police records.........

You are free to speak for yourself, but only yourself. So you move from a reasoned discussion to speculation about things of which you have no knowledge and have no relevance to the topic. If you were the AD, you would have serious reservations due to Pearl's past history.
Oh, and for the record the answers are no to all of your baseless and insulting questions.

Oh the questions are relative. Many like to pick on Pearl's character when they themselves have just as many or more flaws.

......so, you're claiming that you've never told a lie of any kind?

For the record, I don't believe you.

I hearing that there may be a conversation in an office this week but Bowen is going to be on the wrong side of the conversation. Several big boosters unhappy with the decision not to send cheerleaders and pep band.
