Blogger Buzz: Erin Andrews clip is bigger than game in blogosphere

It was a challenge to do a "Blogger Buzz" this morning. Every blogger is posting the same thing: the now infamous Bruce Pearl-Erin Andrews halftime interview video. Did he?

Either way, the Vols are No. 1 and another courtside appearance of the pair looms.

Here's our list of blogger links this morning.

Either way, you want to focus on this? He didn't sexually molest her by any stretch. Come on.

This is the best you could do KSN?

Hell, Coach Brucie is not legally married. So he was a little flirty with Erin? Do you blame him? She is smoking hot!

I love how the media and UT haters makes something out of absolutely nothing.

she kind of blushed there ? she might of liked it, like one poster said , he isnt married , he can flirt with who ever he likes. If he was flirting at all. jealously is a killer (KNS)
Just a matter of time before KNS starts hating on Pearl.

Suprised Adams hasn't written an article about how we need a change of leadership in the mens basketball program because this is just the tip of the iceburg and all Pearl is doing is setting a bad example for our team and opening the door for legal problems..........

Get real anyone who wants to make a federal case out of this, lighten up!

The implications percolate in the idle minds of those who speculate it was anything more than what it was.

In other words, what a waste of copy space to bring attention to fluff controversy rather than the historic significance and substance that was this game.

KingsportVol...I don't get your post?

Media and anyone else trying to make something of this is assinine.

His polls are a little behind. We're now number one in both (unanimous in the coach's).

Posted by invisiblekid on February 25, 2008 at 2:58 p.m. (Suggest removal)

If he did, I don't blame him but it seemed innocent enough to me. Throwing a lawn dart while blindfolded here, maybe the guy was happy he just coached his team to the number one position in the country over a heated rival.

The clip is from the halftime interview, I-kid.

Too bad the camera zoomed in so close, couldn't really see where he grabbed her. She didn't jump so I assume wasn't anyplace naughty.

Much ado about nothing. The guy just coached the biggest game of his career and won - ya reckon he was excited?? If she's not complaining, then neither should anybody else. There's too many people in this world looking for reasons to be offended - get a life and enjoy the first ever venture into the fast lane for UT Basketball.

KingsportVol- new polls never come out before 1:30. Don't read the updated part at the bottom.

By the way...why does KNS even mention that? If it was a guy interviewing Bruce would there be any talk of that? Nope. Same thing if female reporters go into the locker room after the game and see a few kick stands. A reporter is a reporter...gender shouldn't matter. I (Suggest removal)of that subject line.

I think it is disgusting the way Erin Andrews grabs a handful of Bruce Pearl in that clip. He's got the dual-buttocks-scratch-war-paint-proof to take half her broadcasting contract and apply it toward a beach house. Okay, ojay...as amped as Brucie was, the Peabody Ducks should have been watching their tale feathers...

Posted by et_vol_fan on February 25, 2008 at 8:51 p.m. (Suggest removal)

I'd let her grab a handful of me??

Posted by knoxsingle on February 25, 2008 at 11:06 p.m. (Suggest removal)

if he didn't motorboat on the clip, kns must acquit.

Posted by lnbadger320 on February 26, 2008 at 9:20 a.m. (Suggest removal)

what a great way to complain about the refs holding lofton. bp is genius.

he's the only guy i know who has the confidence to mac on an espn report during halftime of one of the biggest games in the year and come out on top. he is the man.
