Pearl would be crazy not to take the offer. He will reportedly receive a package worth over $1 Million a year. He makes himself a wealthy man and can move on if he chooses. He was making $375,000+ at UW-Milwaukee. (NT) -- Rambacker, Mon March 28, 2005 13:36:44
- Wow, he was making that much loot at UWM? (NT) -- Air Hej '02, Mon March 28, 2005 14:29:16
  - Yes, and more with his camp, etc. (NT) -- Rambacker, Mon March 28, 2005 15:01:46
    - Rambacker - Pearl's package calls for about $800K per year in base pay, plus incentives. The incentives will include a TV show on CSS, which should put his total compensation at or near the $1M per year mark. Also, sorry about the confusion this morning re Mike Anderson vs Mike Williams. My bad. (NT) -- TNRam, Mon March 28, 2005 16:47:23
      - No problem. Pearl did a great job at UWM. Hope he does well at UT. A good coach - maybe the Vols time has come. (NT) -- Rambacker, Mon March 28, 2005 18:26:42
        One correction - Pearl's annual package consists of the following: base pay of $225K; radio/television commitments (includes the CSS show) of $250K; equipment and apparel fees of $225K; and endorsement/appearance fees of $100K. Compensation from a summer basketball camp and bonuses are in addition to the $800K annual package, and the contract length is five years. (NT) -- TNRam, Tue March 29, 2005 08:39:19
        Tennessee also agreed to buy out Pearl's contract with Wisconsin-Milwaukee for $194K. (NT) -- TNRam, Tue March 29, 2005 08:44:52
        It's nice to feel wanted, isn't it? (NT) -- Rambacker, Tue March 29, 2005 08:59:40
