Looks like the Original Pancake House was too good to pass up? Did Bruce tamper with Jeronne?

[SoCalwarrior]

Good luck to him. A good kid with an overbearing father. Good for him that his dad is far away because UT will not run the offense through him for one day or one practice for as long as he is there for.

What makes you think Tim will stay in Madison?  He and Torrell Harris (Tobias' father) should become good friends. Have fun with that Bruce.

Its a very grey area. If a player transfers, there is a VERY good chance he has discussions with other coaches prior to making the transfer. In fact, it is often said that...You dont announce that you are going to transfer without having something else lined up.

Hey, if he get's out of ear shot of future recruits I'll be ecstatic.

Let's get this clear once for all. Jeronne and his entourage were asked to leave MU. Tim, never in his wildest dream, thought the university would bend over and blown him a kiss.

  Oh, I'm pretty sure Tim thought the university would bend over.

Hmmm. This was posted on Goodman's blog:

"Marquette transfer Jeronne Maymon was considering Tennessee, but the holdup may be that the Vols don't have a scholarship right now and he'd have to pay his own way for the rest of the year."

EDIT: I don't know which article was posted first...I cannot read the Insiders' article.

I'm sure he probably qualified for a student loan.  He can pay it back with his NBA contract next year

From the K-State reporter from 810AM Kansas City-

If you heard Maymon to Tennessee - his dad just told me by text: "You know something I don't." http://ow.ly/WiY4

Personally, I think Timmy is trying to string out the coverage. Similar to his quote to the Madison TV station about not knowing of Jeronne quitting.

It's the "Waffle House".  Waffle Houses are pretty much greasy spoons located off of most interstate exits down here.  Good luck to Jeronne.  Let see how his expectations and reality line up in Tennessee.

[77ncaachamps]

It's the "affle House".

Corrected for what it truly is.

[willie warrior]

His dad should fit in quite well there with the rest of the convicts.

[WarriorMU]

It's a done deal.

I wish you, and others, would knock it off with the idiotic comments.  You just sound bitter.

It wasn't working out for Jeronne here and I'm happy that he found a place that he feels will work better for him.  Best of luck Jeronne, we barely knew ye.

[dw3dw3dw3]

Apparently the mighty Vikings are still in the running.

That must be the school where his demands were closest to being met.

"It's all about who has the best package."
That pretty much says it all.

I think willie's comment was referring to Timmay, not Jeronne.  I wish the very best for Jeronne, but his dad remains fair game - and always will.

I realize willie was talking about Tim.  Tim has no bearing on our program and just happens to be the father of one of our former players.  Sniping at the guy is juvenile, especially when you're just "feeding the troll."  If you stop feeding the troll and more often than not the troll goes away.

Fitting if true.

Bruce Pearl and Tim Maymon deserve each other.

Talk about a match made in Hell.

[ChicosBailBonds]

Count me as shocked that Pearl would do this. 

[Marquette Mama]

It's the "Waffle House". 

Complete thread hijack -- but can't resist the opportunity to reprise this classic peak into Waffle House culture: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3HcaIiTmDc

And don't forget about my home boy Kid Rock's famous Waffle House dining experience:

OK. Back to basketball.

Probably more desparation at this point, don't you think?

[GGGG]

Why would Pearl be desperate?  He has plenty of job security and just beat the #1 team in the country.

How deep is their roster with those 4 players getting suspended indefinitely?
