Someone explain the whole Bruce Pearl situation.
At UT he had a recruit come to house for a BBQ when he shouldn't have. It was a fairly minor violation that mushroomed when he then lied about it.

Bruce invited a recruit over to BBQ he was having (not a big deal and no longer against the rules). Someone took a photo of the recruit and Pearl and faxed the pic to the NCAA. BP had no lawyer going into it and no idea what it was about. When confronted he and the staff panicked and said they didn't know where it was from. Then Pearl came clean and admitted to it. NCAA hammered him for telling the truth after he lied because well, he admitted he lied to the NCAA.
If he'd just told the truth and not panicked it never would have been a big deal because it was a secondary/minor infraction.
And yeah what started it all isn't even against NCAA rules anymore.
