The most depressing part of this is apparently the KNS staff doesn't know that Reese Witherspoon is a girl and Samuel L. Jackson is black. Or maybe they don't know Bruce Pearl is a white guy

Phil Fulmer! He is looking for work! However, I don't think that he can even act that energized!

I am not a household name on this board, and usually try to fly beneath the horizon; however, I consider most of the "polls" conducted here rather sophmorish and this one takes the cake.
With hundreds...sometimes thousands of opinionated responders to every column, who needs a poll?
As to who should play CBP, please explain to me the point; there will be no movie, the question serves no purpose and just adds another farce to serious stuff...if we consider basketball serious stuff.

With such arbitrary choices, where are Jackie Chan, Morgan Freeman, Angelina Jolie, and Swedish Chef from the muppets? I hope they get Eddie Munster to play Billy Donovan!

How bout Gene Hackman, but only if he could bring Jimmy Chitwood. Not even Hackman could rescue this trainwreck

I'd just go by and pick up a salesman at a used car lot. That would probably match him the closest. A used car salesman.

I won't dignify the poll by participating. Especially, without Ben Stiller on it.

I mean, is there really going to be a Bruce Pearl character in a movie???? Otherwise isn't this pretty ridiculous??

Bobby Knight - oh wait, Knight knows how to get his players to play good defense and play with passion - so that wouldn't work....

Another typically stupid KNS poll. Just a lazy way to add bogus content to the site. I rarely even bother to respond with a comment to this silliness, but this is just so silly. I can make up the next several polls for them to save them the 3 brain cells it takes to come up with this garbage:
If Lane Kiffin were an alien, what planet would he be from?
Should UT put more black in it's jerseys?
Will Lane Kiffin be at UT longer than Barack Obama is President?
What would Todd Raleigh do for a living if he weren't a baseball coach?
How does Bruce Pearl like his Waffle House hashbrowns?

The underachievers, coming soon to a theatre near you. Starring Bruce Pearl himself.

None of that was funny or hurtful. Are you mentally challenged?

New poll:
Which has more grease?
A) Billy Donavan's hair
B) Waffle House Hash Browns
C) Gatorzz's nut huggers after a long night at a UF frat house party
You be the judge!

gatorzz wants UT to fail as much as he is hoping America will fail. I really don't want you to be a Vol fan. Please be a gator fan, but, the HATE speech has got to go.

Maybe with a question: What does this mean.
"Will Lane Kiffin be at UT longer than Barack Obama is President?
Yes, but we will have a November do-over this June, so he will only be there longer by a few months."
A do-over? And who the hell is "we"? I want my 401k and country to move forward.

and...."Should UT put more black in it's jerseys?
Most of your team is already black."
What are you trying to say?

Someone else asked and I agree, is there a way to remove Don DeVoe's keyhole mugshot from the GVX website? We have had to look at it for days now!!!

How about Jim Carrey ... after all it would be along the lines of Dumb and Dumber, or any other of his redundantly sophomoric efforts.
