Is today the day that Bruce Pearl is no longer a Vol for Life?

It appears his legacy will always be remembered at Auburn.

Bruce will always be a Vol but he’s cemented his legacy with this run at auburn. I don’t mind it one bit to know this. He loves auburn and Tennessee. Nothing wrong with that imo.

I'd say he will always be a Vol since he's forever tied to them due to the fact that he was eventually fired because of lying to the NCAA. I believe he got a 3yr show-cause penalty, but hey..... to an honest coach!!

I think CBP still loves everything about UT and the area. He made a mistake, and unlike most, owned it. It is a shame for UT that they had to fire him for it. I am forever grateful that AU took a chance and hired him after his show cause was gone. In the pantheon of digressions, I think his was way down the list. He did own it, though. He will always have his antics and achievements at UT. I think the Final Four puts his legacy squarely at AU. He did a lot of good at UT. He got to the FF at AU. He has never ever shown anything but love to the UT faithful and I hope those fans are cheering for him in the FF.

I had the pleasure of running into Coach Pearl in Denver last Summer. I loved the guy when he was at UT, and continue to be a fan of his. The administration did what they had to do...This Vol fan would love to see him cutting down the nets after the championship game.

And by "most" were talking about Will Wade.
