That Jimmy Collins write-up was really painful. I knew some of that story, but I didn't realize Pearl had fabricated it out of whole cloth. What an absolute asshole.

Also, you made a very strong tie-in to what we're seeing with the administration — you hope there's some sort of karma, legal or otherwise, for the people involved in this pathetic charade (Jared, Lewandowski, Kobach, etc.). But you get the feeling there won't be and that Kushner will always end up soullessly gliding through life, being this weird cipher android sociopath and getting the best tables at the best restaurants.

When Georgia had a coaching vacancy after firing Mark Fox, there were some rumors that they were considering hiring Pearl. It's the only thing that would have made me give up my season tickets.

Will nails another one. Terrific piece on Jimmy Collins and his impact on Illini basketball.
