Havent seen this posted anywhere but if its already been said I apologize. Heard this story on WNML today by will west. Basically heres the run down on the Pruitt and Richt fiasco.
When Pruitt left Florida state for the Georgia job, Pruitt was given much power by the Athletic Director after only one year.
For example, Pruitt made coaching hires on the other side of the ball such as the offensive line coach. Hires that Mark Richt did not agree with.
Furthermore If Pruitt did not have it his way, Pruitt was known to go behind Richts back and talk to the athletic director about whatever he wanted.
Pruitt insisted that UGA needed an indoor practice facility. Something that the athletic department had discussed but never gave a formal yes. Despite the uncertainty of UGA getting a indoor practice field, Pruitt grabbed the mic at a closed practice and told everyone that there will be a new indoor practice field, which at the time was false.
Dont get me wrong, I love Pruitt. Just wanted to share what I heard today on WNML.
I dont believe some of these situations are Pruitts fault, what athletic director allows the defensive coordinator to hire an offensive line coach?
