Doubt it. IF it's Pruitt, they may be trying to nail down the staff prior to the announcement so they can make a bigger splash, taking away some disappointment of not getting the guy everyone wants. Compare just announcing Pruitt vs. announcing Pruitt with Tee as OC/AHC, Steel as DC, Dale Jones as LB coach, etc.
IMO, Pruitt is the guy, however Alabama is wanting him to stay through the Playoff, which Tennessee doesnt want at all. They need him to recruit and be here. The other thing is that Pruitt probably wants to bring in his own people, Fulmer wants Tee to come in as OC. Probably why there is still a delay to announce him. Still working out the fine details.
Per my sources I am being told UT is going to revive Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau to fill the head coach vacancy. Matthau was the first choice but my sources are saying Matthau refused to come unless he could bring Lemmon with him. I'll update once I have more info on the matter.
Nxt season:
Pruitt beats Saban
Saban retires
Pruitt leaves for Bama
Couches burn
I could see something like this happening eventually
