The Auburn Head coach Bruce Pearl got his start here in Evansville by coaching USI (U of Southern Indiana) where Bruce took the Screaming Eagles to the Div. 2 title in I believe the mid 80s

In the mid '80's POS pearl was nowhere near USI, he was an assistant at Stanford. After that, POS pearl was an assistant at the University of Iowa (he fit right in at Iowa) through the late '80's into the early '90's before he was pretty much run out of Iowa City and essentially blackballed from coaching for being a lying, slimeball POS. At some point after the Iowa debacle USI lowered themselves to hire him. He then left USI and went to UW Milwaukee where, remarkably, he actually slithered out of Milwaukee without putting them on NCAA probation. Not so lucky at Tennessee where the Vols were compelled to fire POS pearl by the NCAA for recruiting violations and lying (see a pattern?) to the NCAA. Now POS pearl is Auburn's problem, but given Auburn's track record POS pearl fit's right in there, too, at least until the NCAA comes to town snoopin' around! POS pearl is living proof that as long as you can motivate college kids and hang a few W's you can be as big a slimeball as God ever put a breath of life into and some college or university somewhere is willing soil themselves enough to hire you. So it goes in college athletics!
Silver Crown Championship Dirt Cars properly driven on a one mile dirt track are classic poetry in motion. Using that analogy, Jack Hewitt is one of the greatest poets of all time.

Damn dude you got serious issues. You sound like he ducked out on a dinner date with your sister and leff her with the check. Yeah the lying at Tennessee came from Aaron Craft ( go Buckeyes), a cookout that was wrong. Hardly like he’s a POS. Did nothing wrong while he was here at USI. Are you a butt hurt KY fan or what?
Eat dirt, be happy
Let’s go Brandon!!

Get real. I'm a certified UCLA hater, but John Wooden was easily the best college hoops coach of all time
Knight was a great coach, no doubt, but a bully who seemed to take all the fun out of the game for lots of his players, IMHO. Just ask Hoosier stars, Larry Bird & Scott Skiles. Bird was there a few days & left, Scott chose Michigan State...
