Headlines, Links & Lies … The Catch-up Edition
No, I haven’t been sleeping…
Despite my complete lack of meaningful activity over the last few days, here are a few links worth checking out…
- The best season in Tennessee basketball history and a few thoughtful observations on why John Calipari is the truthiest — The BruceBall Blog
- In response to Fulmer’s Belly’s Classic April Fools scoop, Tennessee head basketball coach Bruce Pearl says it all:
I have said many times that I am a coach that digs his roots deep within a community. That is especially the case here at the University of Tennessee. In the last three years we have averaged more than 25 wins while winning SEC championships and making back-to-back Sweet 16 appearances. The fan support has been amazing with 20,000 fans at Thompson-Boling Arena creating the best homecourt advantage in the nation. While there have been rumors about me being considered for coaching jobs at other schools, I want the Tennessee fans to know that the only school I am interested in talking about is the University of Tennessee. We have started something special here and I look forward to being a part of it for a very long time. It is great to be a Volunteer.

About the Author: A guy living in North Carolina who has an unnatural fascination with the color orange. Just because I'm a Tennessee alum and die-hard Volunteer fan doesn't mean that I can't poke a little fun at the Big Orange and anybody else for that matter.
