Vols Say NCAA Hearing Was "Fair..."

Whatever that means...

Members of the Tennessee Athletic Department spent more than 10 hours in front of the NCAA Committee on Infractions answering claims on the COI's allegations of 12 major violations committed by the football and basketball programs.

Bruce Pearl spent five hours answering questions from the NCAA and his output was matched by current USC head football coach Lane Kiffin for another five.

“We are glad we had the opportunity to present our case." Chancellor Jimmy Cheek said in a written statement released after the hearing. "We feel it was a fair hearing, and we look forward to the resolution of this matter.”

Here's an interview our friends at VolunteerTV/WVLT had with Bruce Pearl in the hallway...


Tennessee should have its answer from the NCAA in the next few months or so...

The HQ is looking for a few words in particular that will also apply in Columbus...

"Show cause..."
