Pruitt dismisses Banks.

[tastycar]

No something else has come up. Being called “new information”

I wonder if we'll be privy to this 'new information.'

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

When can we dismiss Pruitt???

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Kick off Bryce Thompson too then

apparently more has come to light on the Banks situation

 

[Dallasbowlin]

Kick off Bryce Thompson too then

I agree with this too. If you kick banks, you have to kick Bryce. (Unless banks has done something more than we’re aware of)

 

[RyanWalkerPGH]

He’s not good anyways. Who cares.

 

[Sundeanvol]

They need to have a program where incoming freshman are teamed up with a police officer. It will help both sides understand each other better and give them a new perspective. I sure it would form some strong bonds, as well. Maybe this is already being done.

 

[Yoyoma]

Excellent. Nice to know that the powers that be don't tolerate hate threats towards our finest. Good move Pruitt!

 

[Catbone]

Lol we have 0 depth

 

[tnutater]

As usual, no one on this forum knows 'the rest of the story". I know it is Smokey's birthday.

You obviously cared enough to post

 

[butchna]

Some folks bout to join the anti pruitt ranks.

Present. Weak move. Fulmer doesn’t escape either.

 

[CountVolcula]

It was inevitable

The backlash was going to be a distraction for the team

Kid ruined his chances by being stupid. Hopefully he learns from this and makes something of himself instead of letting it harden him more.

I agree with this too. If you kick banks, you have to kick Bryce. (Unless banks has done something more than we’re aware of)

Except Thompson didn’t really do anything and it was never proven he actually made a threat to anyone much less have it on tape. It isn’t that difficult to understand

I hope this is the best decision for all involved vs. a decision that was forced to be made based on public reaction and perception.

 

[Russdaddy2027]

The new information was :
Coach Pruitt, if you would like to remain employed by this university it would behoove you to remove Jeremy Banks from your team.

 

[Vol524]

Well those that wanted Banks gone should come on here and sing Pruitt's praises. They trashed Pruitt for not dismissing him. Now eat some crow. I bet we don't see or hear a positive comment about Pruitt. Haters going to hate. Banks was a good player but he was not worth the trouble he brought. I am sure the Gators will welcome him with open arms. He will fit right in there.

 

[Velo Vol]

Jeremy Banks got cancelled.

 

[rdk4121]

It has to be something additional to the video. The video, while bad, doesn't warrant being kicked off the team. That warranted a better effort of teaching him to be a better man.

 

[greazy1722]

Thats sad.

 

[CountVolcula]

I hope this is the best decision for all involved vs. a decision that was forced to be made based on public reaction and perception.

Perception and image

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

Based on the video, this is surprising. I’m intrigued as to what this additional info may be.

 

[Creeker]

I hope this move is due to Pruitt receiving more information than what is publicly known. If not then he essentially used a player as a scapegoat

 

[Zues1]

Finally the correct decision was made

 

[OL SMOKEY]

The new information was :
Coach Pruitt, if you would like to remain employed by this university it would behoove you to remove Jeremy Banks from your team.

First thing I thought of also!!!!
