that's why we have the right to disown any former coach if they do bad things after leaving Stanford. Undergrads--at least those who graduate from Stanford -- we own forever, but when coaches change schools we can be selective in who we claim. It says so right in the official "I Want It To Be So" rulebook.

I was one of the assistant managers under Bruce Pearl his first year at Stanford. He was a PITA then. He also seemed kind of sleazy. Turned out that first impressions were correct. But he was a perfect fit for the sleazy business of college recruiting.

Here is another story from his dishonorable history - https://deadspin.com/bruce-pearl-s-first...-m-5898192

However (a big however), the guy learned how to coach. Bruce Pearl has been a winner at every coaching job he has had from Southern Indiana to Wisconsin-Milwaukee to Tennessee and Auburn. He's still a lousy person and I am fine with him not being associated with Stanford.
