Post by: Creek Walker on August 21, 2013, 08:34:50 EDT I may shed a tear if Pearl winds up coaching in the SEC against Tennessee.

Title: Re: Very interesting Bruce Pearl article... Post by: Inspector Vol on August 21, 2013, 08:56:38 EDT I know it won't happen but I wish they would hire him back if Martin doesn't work out.
Regardless I hope he gets to coach and beat Matta more. Title: Re: Very interesting Bruce Pearl article...

Title: Re: Very interesting Bruce Pearl article... Post by: dansavol1 on August 21, 2013, 10:55:02 EDT He paid a dear price. I think Hamilton did the right thing and had no choice. But the thing I cannot forget, after all this came out, he continues to own up to his mistake. How many people, in any job or any situation, will say "I was wrong. I made a mistake?". Because of that, I would like to see him be able to get back into a good coaching job. I like Conzo, but should that not work out, I do not thing it would be wise, for Pearl or UT, for him to ever be considered for the UT job. I just think the past would be a hurdle neither could climb over.

I think it could be done since UT has new administration. I think the fans would be behind it. I would be all for it. Title: Re: Very interesting Bruce Pearl article... Post by: SmokeyJoe on August 21, 2013, 11:50:15 EDT Barring unforeseen attrition, all of the pieces should be in place for Martin. I expect a very successful year. I just can't see Pearl as our coach again... not that I would be opposed.

It sounds to me like the situation at UGA sounds like what he is looking, and I think it would be easy for UGA to fire Mark Fox after another .500 season with no NCAA birth, both of which are likely. I'd hate to see it happen. I guess the only bright side is I would have the opportunity to watch good basketball being played nearby for a change.
