It's the one thing I've actually heard come out of Billy Packer's mouth that I agree with when he said that Gordon should have watched how Curry moved without the ball in order to improve his game.

Those two are 2 peas in a pod! DID you watch Tennessee play vs Butler? OMG! It was like watching KS meets MIKE DAVIS! I'll give them one thing...they play some tenacious defense, but that doesn't make up for the complete LACK of discipline on offense. My money says Jordan Crawford trasnfers to either Memphis or Tennessee! That's his style of ball down there. And i think Pearl and Calip have the NUTZ in their sack to get in Crawford's grill about his pouting and lack of hustle. Just my opinion.

So he wasn't going anywhere. None of this is really news. Well let's see.

Sounds like Bruce Pearl to me. Hope the blue ribbon makes the move. Pearl would easily convince Bassett and Crawford to stay. Not to mention, we'd have a better shot at Ebanks and Holloway re-committing. Helter skelter style? Sounds like Bruce Pearl to me. Hope the blue ribbon makes the move.
