Tennessee basketball: where marriages go to die

Following on the heels of Pat Summitt's divorce from her husband of 27 years, now Bruce Pearl is getting a divorce from his wife of 25 years.

I know I shouldn't make fun, as these are doubtless sad and trying times for the coaches and their spouses, but I can't resist: Bruce and Pat, sittin' in a tree?? Maybe he liked her singing, and she liked him shirtless, more than we realized!

At least one Vols coach is safe. Michael Silence writes: "If success in UT athletics means marital problems, Phil Fulmer has nothing to worry about." Heh. (Hat tip: InstaPundit.)

I wonder what profession has the higher divorce rate, coaches or attorneys? I know the coaches have to best us in all those "job satisfaction" surveys but we've got 'em beat in the "alcoholism rate by profession"
