Every school like Auburn that approaches him is just another bargaining chip in his pocket for when a decent school comes calling. Too bad Okie State played well enough for Travis Ford to keep his job, oscar Pearl would have done very well there.

Pearl had limited choices because of his baggage, but landed a slightly better job than Frank. Auburn had a nice run in the 80s (while cheating a lot) and went to the Sweet 16 in 2003.

Still its a tough job and Barbee is leaving him a program that hasn't been above .500  in 5 seasons and hasn't been to the NCAAs since 2003.

I'm pretty surprised, even with his former misdeeds, that this is the best gig that oscar Pearl could get.

Nothing right now, I'm guessing that oscar thought this was the best opportunity for him (since he took the goddam job), and that includes jobs that may come open in the near future.

He never wanted to leave coaching. I imagine he sprung at the first real school that gave him a real offer. He won't stay at Auburn for long.

If that's really the case, and he just took the first real job offered to him, then it sounds a lot like the mistake that Frank made. Hopefully it works out a little better for him than it has for Frank so far.

Pearl is better than Frank so I'm sure he will do better than him.

Tennessee fires cuonzo after next year and asks oscar to come back home.  Circle of life complete.  Auburn should probably put in a nice buyout to ease their pain.
