Ive heard that if you interview someone for HC with no intention of hiring them at that position, youre hurting their career.
Even before Pruitt knocked it out of the park in his interview and early recruiting, his resume (and the other finalists) far outshone Tees. You dont hire someone that couldnt nab the Georgia Southern job out of pure gratitude for his playing career. University of Houston did that with Clyde Drexler...failed. Fulmer didnt pine for the AD job to hire one of his buddies...that gets you fired.
So why no formal interview with Tennessee? Is it Peyton? I doubt it. Has something transpired somewhere along the way to seriously sour his relationship with UT?
What would we have to talk about if he, Peerless, Al, Leonard, Travis and others hadnt taken us to the promise land in 98?
Maybe not but if the man won you a national championship at quarterback you would think you would give him an interview for the public to see.
That doesnt get you fired. But who knows, maybe my discombobulator has stopped combobulating.

Maybe so but that's not the reason he's not HC. He's not qualified to be HC and that's why he didn't get an interviewTee broke a cardinal unwritten rule and openly criticized UT for not interviewing him.
Of course, he also stated he had no intention of considering the OC position. Fine, but you aren't above OC at UT.
IMO, there's been too much friction between Tee and UT. Maybe it isn't his fault but it's still there.
I hope he does well at USC. Now, there is no mystery about who is OC and who is calling plays. It's Tee's show.
