Bruce fired himself by lying to his bosses, lying to the NCAA, and then concocting a story and conspiring with his assistants to try and cover the lies. He turned an inconsequential very minor slap on the wrist infraction in to a three year show cause penalty simply because he couldn't fess up and tell the truth before he was forced to admit that hadn't been honest about the whole situation. He had his chances to come clean and avoid the entire sordid affair, but wouldn't do it.
Y'all had better just hope he doesn't decide to hold a barbecue.

He's changed schools.....I guess it's about time he changes wives too. Must be a hottie in Auburn that trumps the one he has now..... like what happened in Knoxville.  |

LOL . . . pouring salt . . . you guys are like shooting fish in a barrel. I post the exact sentiment I've seen expressed by Clock and all the other UTers that frequent the VS and WHAB. But naturally the snarling dogs begin to howl and scream . . . and insult. And of course my followup I only agreed with how wonderful UT tradition is . . . historically.
Tiderinsider's got nothing on you guys . . . well except the winning part.
Ouch on that last line  |

Wayne, Bruce is doing what he does - he's a winner. He will have Auburn winning the west soon. Not this year, but soon. Of course the west sucks... but...
I'm good with our coach though. Best of luck.
Didn't the SEC start going to a top to bottom ranking in basketball and did away with the East vs West standings? I know our schedule last year was weird and not the traditional play each east school twice and west school once. |

Correct, and it was largely because UT got the shaft during one of Bruce's years when the finished third in the SEC East, but had a better record than the West champion did and got the shaft in SECT seeding.

I think I'd like to go back to divisional basketball. No home game vs. Kentucky last year and no home game vs. Florida this year really bites.  |

I'd try to mock Wayne, but, uh, he's got Malzahn AND Pearl. I'm for our guys, but admit life is pretty good on The Plains. If there's anything we've learned, it's talk trash while you can. I intend to be insufferable if we near mediocrity.  |

How long before Gus decides to try his system in the NFL? He's got to, ya know. He's already mastered the college game, and there are plenty of naysayers who would say his system wouldn't work in the NFL.   |

Steve Spurrier's NFL failures should be a real warning that a gimmiky offense won't work at that level. |

So now bammer fans are saying this about Malzahn, after years of barners saying this about Satan. Hm. |

Really? I think the new coach might do okay. We will see.
I get the impression that the coach leavin' is better the the new coach comin'...and Martin wasn't even that great. I seriously doubt we will ever hire a better coach than BP. |

I don't think that's a fair assessment of Tyndall considering that he's never coached a game at the major college level. |

Where are you getting that impression? I think there's plenty of evidence that the opposite is true. |

This. Don't understand all of the people who still want to kiss Pearl's ass at every opportunity. He is the guy who turned what should have been a very minor infraction in to a three year show cause penalty. He did it. All by himself. And he is the reason we had to endure 3 years of Double Live Cuonzo ball. |

Yup. I miss the happy times he brought us, but he was not the victim. |

Honestly...until Wayne posted, I actually had forgotten Bruce was even at Allbarn. Just haven't been paying attention. Too much actual life going on.  |

He was not the victim, he was simply the best coach we ever had for the men's team and may very well be the best we will ever have. That's all I'm saying. We all know we would have a good team or maybe even a great team if we had hired BP back. With this new coach? Nobody has any real F'n idea. I'd rather give him a second chance (and win games) than continually being butthurt over the stupid mistakes that he made. |

I was one of those guys who wanted Bruce Pearl back. Having said that I think Donnie Tyndall will get the job done.
