Damn what a great coach! Like him or not, he is a winner, his teams play aggressive and he is a man’s man which is sorely lacking in our western societies.




Bruce Pearl is a bastard. He's the embodiment of the vile nature of corrupt college basketball and has zero honor whatsoever. He lets his underlings take his falls and brings along the NCAA and now FBI scrutiny. His place is alongside Rick Pitino, Bobby Petrino and others.

Absolutely disgusting and wretched human beings who are put up with in civilized society because they win sports games, which is more an indictment of the current culture than anything else.

Bruce Pearl is a BAD PERSON who happens gets balls through hoops and I wouldn't allow him near my child or my program.

Someone needs to fill me in on why Bruce is this slimy cheating arse coach. Not saying he deserves to be omitted from criticism about lying about a BBQ, but damn guys, all he did was tell some recruits to lie at a BBQ .

Again, not saying what he did at UT was okay, but there has been shadier shite going down in CBB just in the last few years.

The ncaa system has enabled corruption and Pearl has not been the factor of bringing ncaa scrutiny or the FBI's...the entire system is corrupt. You don't know Bruce on a personal level. I lived in Knoxville during his time in Tennessee and he cares about his players. He is a good father and loves his son greatly. He has honor! He gives back to others and the communities.

Bruce doesn't "happen" to get balls through hoops. He reached 300 wins faster than any coach in history except Roy Williams by only 12 games. And he started off as a team manager at Boston College, where he graduated.

Yes, he has gotten dirty relevant to recruiting. I definitely didn't like how he handled himself in the Illinois recruiting issue with Thomas and the secret recording etc etc and he flat out lied about Aaron Craft not being at the cookout etc etc. He is far from perfect but he's no less than you or me...flawed and in need of redemption.
