This is one of Coach Jim B. BEST speeches & heartfelt moments, (To all the fans, & critics) He was paying his respects to HIM ( not JUST ANOTHER ) but a man that help PAVE THE WAY to the SU. program, N#31 will never be forgotten.
Choking up, it shows he's not lying, he's speaking Full truth, as he usually does
Walking down Fulton St in Brooklyn last year, wearing my Pearl t-shirt. "He was something else" the guy walking towards me says. Still remembered.

Humble dude The gr8 Pearl. Glad I met him and talked to him on a few occasions I had no shame approaching him EVERYTIME I saw him. NONE
Love the great Pearl and Jim.
We love you coach!
thk u for this! RIP Pearl!
One of the greats..
Pearl was a rare player who could leave the vaunted defense of Ewing/Graham flat-footed, or flailing at air. Great rivalry, Orange vs Hoyas.
