I don't see what the big deal with the publicity is. Pearl just lied about a secondary violation. That's all he did. People here in Knoxville would have him back in a heartbeat. They are already talking about wanting to fire Cuonzo to get Pearl back. The man single handedly put UT men's basketball on the map and rejuvenated fan support to an all-time high. He teamed up with Pat Summit and the football team to get support for every major sport there. Yeah, he may have lied about something stupid, but he's paid the penalty and if there's one man that rivals Peyton as all-time favorite UT person (besides Pat Summit of course) it's Bruce. That alone should be enough to want to hire him.
And you act like UGA basketball is some prestigious program that has to keep up its high class image. UGA basketball HAS NO IMAGE. When you're a shite arse program you have to take risks, but then again there's virtually no risk with him. What are you scared he may make our basketball program good so you have one less thing to bitch about? Hiring Pearl here would be the next best thing to happen to UGA athletics since we signed Herschel.
Or do you want to hire another Fox that does mediocre at best and gets fired in the next 5 years just to be back in the same situation with Stegeman 5 years older?

i'm not denying what your saying, I think he would be a good fit here for sure. I'm just saying the AD and the way Georgia does things they would never consider it. It's not a real possibility here.
I think he will get another job somewhere and do well. But it was more than just the violation. It was lying about it and convincing assistants and those around him to also lie about it to attempt to cover it up. His staff also made a lot of minor violations while he was there.
