Pruitt no show on the Jeremy Pruitt Show

[utvolpj]

I think they tape them right after the game now, so he's still in full sideline regalia.

He looked and sounded as defeated as his team.

Looks like you've answered your own question. I think we're done here

I am starting to not like Pruitt's attitude about his show.

His recalcitrant, zombie-like non-presence is getting old. It's disrespectful to his host, the organization, and fans.

Yeah, I get it. He doesn't like doing it. He doesn't like Kessler Kessling. He'd rather be watching film or scheming.

Well, tough s**t. It's part of the job. He got paid more this year than most fans make in a lifetime to do the job.

He has set high standards and expectations for his players to execute at a certain level. He needs to man up and do the same.

I don’t like Bob! Can we get a new one?

 

[ButchBettaBeGone]

Honestly after the 50 point beating we got from Mizz, I'd be pissed and wouldn't have much to say. Here we go....oh yeah we got our arse handed to us Bob..thanks for pointing it out. He probably would rather go look at film and study to see what we can do to improve. Talking show is a waste of time. We need to get out and recruit, watch film instead of blah blah blah talking Bob.

As a grown man in my middle 30s with a family I just can’t imagine caring this much about a post game coaches show.

The majority of these folks are just trolling other posters to get some attention. Kinda like kids sometimes do. Just look at their moniker names.

 

[ZZ13]

I've regularly watched the shows by Shug Jordan, Bear Bryant, Majors, Fulmer, Kiffin. Majors was the best followed by the Bear. The Bear was unintentionally hilarious. He often didn't know the names of his players. Shug was pretty boring. Kiffin not so good. Looked down and away from the camera. Seeming like the kinda guy that couldn't look someone in the eye. Saw a few of Dooleys. Pretty entertaining. Never saw Butch.

 

[74charger]

I only watch the games and don’t care to watch them talk about what has already happened.

 

[Cpatter4]

I couldn’t care less about his lack of expression or personality on a show. What matters is his effectiveness on the football program and his ability to recruit and rebuild.

 

[Jack Burton]

Pruitt hates losing and it shows in his time on air. I’m fine with that.

 

[JohnnyJava]

It took me reading two pages of posts to figure out that Pruitt had not failed to show up for the taping of his show, but rather was not as enthusiastic as the poster wished. This is a poor and misleading post. I encourage the poster to use language more precisely in the future.

 

[hbvol1982]

A whole lot more of his salary comes from this show than comes from the University, and it's not close. At some point he is going to have to embrace it.

 

[YankeeVol]

So are you saying there are zero good reasons that he would miss the show?

I could think of plenty off the top of my head and I could start by saying he was off recruiting some new OL. Likewise, it could be something more serious like an illness in his family or something of that nature.

Why jump to conclusions is what I'm really getting at.

 

[SKBubba]

Yeah, $3.5 million in "supplemental" pay, which includes the show and other promotional stuff.

 

[landscapingvol]

I wonder how this will affect recruiting? A lot of potential recruits are watching the show and base their decision off of how well he does on the show

 

[saxvol]

You remind me of the guy who complains about his wife’s attitude during sex even though she’s exhausted from chasing kids every day, cleans the house, packs his lunch, and cooks his dinner.

Moral of the story, if you're a guy don't ever get married.

 

[Buddr]

Got no problem with it, cant get it on my local TV anyway so I never watch it. Only thing that matters to me is his game plan on Saturdays other than that just dont beat anybody and get into any recruiting violations and we good.

 

[PineyBluff Vol]

Boo hoo...

Come back when we are winning, you will like yourself a lot more!

Seriously of all the things to be upset about, you are made about his demeanor on a Coach's show?

 

[InstrumentalVol]

Imagine being upset your football coach isn't on a program that is 80% ads instead of working on scheming for a winner goes bowling/loser goes home scenario. Wow.

Channel 9 in Chattanooga had it on at 4:00 P.M. yesterday.

 

[Cartervol]

I doubt he's having much fun this year. He's probably about as ready for this year to end as some of us are. This version of Tennessee i hope we don't see again anytime soon..

 

[SoddyAllVol]

The coaches show has always been a monumental waste.

Only a waste when we lose. It’s enjoyable to watch when we win.

 

[Carl Pickens]

i haven't watched the coach's show since 2005 or so..... I don't care how he acts.... at least we don't have to hear a bunch of crazy ass coach speak slogans anymore

 

[Smokey X]

What can we honestly learn on a Sunday that we didn't watch with our own eyes on a Saturday?

exactly right. every game is televised so there is no reason to continue this show, IMO.
The advertisers are probably the only thing keeping it afloat.

 

[Otis07]

Freak, I hate to say this, but I’m starting to believe that there should be a IQ test that should be taken before someone can start a thread.

I suspect you would fail

 

[jakez4ut]

they still do coaches' shows?

what is this, the 80's?
