Bruce Pearl leaving Tennessee?

You realize there's a 99% chance he gets a show-cause penalty for at least a year, right?
 
Not many coaches would paint themselves for a women's bb game.

Awesome!
 
pfffft...show cause shmoe cause....take Bruce Pearl and give the NCAA the darn finger.
 
In the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), a show-cause penalty is an order saying that a coach involved in major rules violations at a university's athletic program may not be hired by any other NCAA member institutions without permission from the Infractions Committee for a set period of time. If a university seeks to hire such a coach, they must "show cause" as to why they should not be penalized for hiring him. Most schools will not even consider hiring a coach with a show-cause penalty in effect; hence the show-cause order effectively blacklists him from the collegiate coaching ranks for the duration of the penalty. The penalty is intended to follow a coach for violations that he had a role in committing.
 
The other posters explained the show-cause penalty nicely. I like Pearl a lot, but unfortunately we're not going to be able to hire him. I'd be stunned if the NCAA does not give him a show-cause...his violations were pretty serious.

Darn. I like Pearl better than the two lead dogs currently.
 
1. no guarantee this will happen
2. you still get a hearing.
3. he's worth it
 
Wow. Lots of good jobs opening up.
 
1. GREAT coach
2. heavy on defense
3. good recruiter
4. good with fans and students
5. puts butts in the seats

we'd be idiots not to consider him in the top 2 or 3

But don't forget the numerous NCAA violations. Are some of you willing to hire a coach that has been known to break the rules? Or do you want someone that can coach and be compliant?
