Also a former Stanford coach's team handled VCU.
Honestly, though I've watched several games over the last couple of days, I just looked at the bracket for the first (!) time this morning. My only reaction is that today's game against Dook will certainly be interesting, to say the least....

Yup - a number of issues led to his firing in 2011, then the NCAA imposed a 3 year show-cause penalty on Pearl. His UT assistant coaches were assessed 1 year penalties.
