Pearl lied about a stupid bar-b-q that did nothing to help his team. He should have never been fired from UT, but I'm glad we have him.

But downright entertaining watching State people wet their pants over Freeze.

Second, he's going to be toxic in the national media. The prostitute thing is known. His contacting the plaintiffs in the lawsuits against Liberty is downright stupid whether their claims have merit or not.


What's really really dumb is dm'ing said plaintiffs via twitter. Next level stupidity.

But why leave Liberty...I mean seeming how he and the university president have such perfect 'alignment'.

Is this a real question? Pearl broke some NCAA recruiting rules, Freeze hired hookers for recruits, covered up sexual assault at Liberty, and tried to intimidate victims over Twitter DM. Pearl has never done anything near as bad as Freeze has done.

Pearl blackmailed a kid once because he didn’t sign with him and messed with the kid’s eligibility. Pretty sleazy.

bullshite. It’s known. That’s why your school fired him after they made it known they’d ride with him through the problems with the NCAA.

Eh all that’s known is that he was calling prostitutes. Who they were for was just conjecture.
Not that there’s really any good explanation

no....it isn't known. The NCAA investigated it(because no shite they would have). There were NO recruits anywhere close to where the hookers were located.

Are you really trying to say it was "known" but the NCAA just decided it was nbd while in the process of lighting our asses up with punishments?

Pearl lied about a bbq.

In addition to the NCAA stuff, Freeze booked hookers with his business supplied phone.

You tell me.

Auburn named their field after a man who resigned due to NCAA sanctions. They crossed this threshold a long time ago.

Freeze hired prostitutes to entice underaged boys to sign with his program. That is what happened and we all know it.

Pearl simply thought he could get away with lying. He didn't know he'd been setup and turned in. If he'd told the truth, he'd have been fine but his real crime was lying about something that at worst was stern look.
