So there is video from June of last year of Pearl dancing with his daughter at her wedding to the One Shining Moment song and he yells to everyone, "We're going to the final 4 next year and we're going to kick Kentucky's arse to get there."

That's pretty freaking cool.

I never had anything against Bruce Pearl. I know he had his issues with the NCAA, but that was non sense in my opinion. You can see why kids would like to play for him and go to war with him.

I think the reason Pearl gets looked down on is that he ratted out Illinois when at Iowa even though he’s not so clean himself. The only reason I don’t like him is he was the BC Eagle so he sucks. But I agree that I can see why kids would take to him.

This is exactly it. The Craft ordeal is a non issue in my book. Pearl is both a snitch and a cheater. Anyone who thinks Person was a lone wolf is naive.

Ha. Good lord. Pearl’s a twofaced scumbag. He’s proof that if you’re a nice guy and play footsy with the media no one cares how dirty you are.

Cool that he predicted that.

Really, really corny that he yelled that out during his daughter's wedding dance.

Regardless of anything he did, my point is that you can see why players would want to play for him. He just has that fiery, outgoing, fun personality...almost like Hurley. Now, compare that with somebody like Boeheim whos a stick in the mud. I know who I would rather play for.

Does he still sweat a lot or did he pay to get that fixed too?

Honestly it’s kinda sad that he’s dancing with his daughter at her wedding and thinking about his basketball team lol

Madoff was a nice footsy guy too
Last Sunday, one of my college suite mates told tale of being invited when he was a young-ish SEC attorney to join Bernie Madoff at a Mets game in his well-located Shea Stadium box seats. He described Madoff as surprised when my friend said that he could not accept the ticket as a gift but was obligated by law to pay for the seats.

Different times, different SEC.

Auburn's Final Four appearance will be vacated in 5 years tops. That's why I'm rooting for them. We all need constant reminders just how corrupt college athletics are.

Michigan State allowed a doctor to molest their athletes for years.

That seems worse than Auburn recruits getting their families paid.
