weathergeakal 283 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Due to the FBI investigation do you think that the university will fire him? I certainly hope not but a lot of the journalist covering this he is done and they see no chance he stays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShocksMyBrain 9,362 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 It would be a grave mistake to fire Pearl unless he is directly implicated. If the university fires him based on hearsay, which I don’t think it would, it would be a travesty and kill our basketball program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfernoOrangeSS 321 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Doubt it, but I can say that if so, I’ll never watch another AU BB game. I’ve been a fan since the mid 80’s. Something like that without due cause would make me not want to ever see the sport at AU again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he tie Pearl to the investigation initially, or is he flinging s*** to see what sticks? Pretty sure he’s had a vendetta toward Auburn since Cam, but I could be mistaking him for someone else.

AU64 10,122 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Just so folks remember that Auburn's problem is with the NCAA , not the FBI. It wasn't the FBI that suspended two players this year. The FBI is Chuck Persons's problem. JMO but the decision will be based on how the NCAA responds and I'm remembering that Greene was asked when he was hired would he be willing to fire BP and he answered "yes". JMO but that has to tell us something.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course.....and there might be plenty of that..... but I don't believe there is due process with the NCAA.... you might want to check with Chuck P or Rick Pitino there was no trial ...just guys getting fired for cause.

BJCrawford 1,568 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 My question for anyone really in the know, when will something definitive be said. I’m pretty tired of the will he or won’t he be here. As popular as he is, I would think it would have to be something really bad to let him go. (Which is what I’m hoping) and is it possible he would be suspended a couple of games rather than fired? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep...which is what happened to CP too.....but BP was his boss and now won't talk about what he might have known....or suspected. But for Auburn, it's an NCAA issue and depends on what NCAA says....and maybe depends on if AU just wants this thing to totally go away (meaning BP as well as CP) and to get the FBI and NCAA totally off our backs and out of town. .
