Interview: Tennessee's Bruce Pearl is a real gem

March has officially arrived. Can't you just smell the madness in the air? The annual phenomenon that grips the international sports psyche from the first week of March through the first week of April, sending fans into a synchronized frenzy, is once again upon us.

"March Madness" is the moniker given to the NCAA College Basketball Tournament. The mere mention of the phrase sends tingles of the CBS theme song and the voices of Dickie Vitale and Billy Packer down the backs of millions of sports fans.

Interview: Tennessee's Bruce Pearl is a real gem
To call Bruce Pearl, the Jewish coach of the University of Tennessee Volunteers men's basketball team, a little atypical as NCAA coaches go would be like categorizing the steroid problem in baseball as "a small vitamin misunderstanding".  The charismatic coach is known for wearing a hat bearing the Star of David to Tennessee post-game press-conferences and introducing himself at various speaking engagements for Jewish causes as Mordechai Shmuel ben Moshe Dov.

Of the many fundraising activities Maccabi USA/Sports for Israel sponsors, our golf tournaments are among the most visible and exciting. Held in communities throughout the United States, many of the country’s most prestigious clubs such as Firestone and Medinah Country Clubs—both home to PGA tournaments--have hosted these events.
