Bruce Pearl/ Vols

It was only Pearl's 3rd year at Tennessee and he led them to their best record ever. He had two good seniors and a bunch of dogs in the junior class. Not really much to work with against Louisville, especially when Lofton is injured.

He's a good coach, bid. They just ran into a better team last night.

Ive never sat a practice maybe my opinion would be different. I think hes a good recruiter, but as far as coaching goes Ill wait till next years NCAA's. I just cant imagine a good coach letting his kids look that bad in the second half. The offensive sets they ran were just horrible and the defense was nonexistant.

I don't think he'll be there next year. Indiana is gonna go after him.

Is he a top on their list of coaches? That seems like a lateral move coaching wise, no?

I expect Indiana will offer him the job with a 2.5 mil salary. Tennessee won't pay that much because they'll be forced to deal with fat Fulmer and the Summitt contracts.

The Marquette coach will be on the list, too. He seems to be on all of them. I think the guy is overrated.

Ive always liked Crean. Can you imagine how hard it would be to recruit in the UP if its not for hockey. UT should fire Fulmer, and pay Summit whatever she wants. Shes incredible. If she coached the men Vols last night they wouldnt have let down defensively like they did.

You have either exposed yourself as a frontrunner for being on the Pat Summit bandwagon or worse, exposed yourself as someone who actually watches womens basketball.

I like Crean too, very solid coach, never any bullsh!t recruiting violations, etc. But Marquette isn't in Marquette, MI, it's in Milwaukee (not that that makes it easier to recruit to)

This may be true, but the defense that those kids played last night was nothing short of atrocious. Call a timeout and dig in their a$$e$.
