Rittenberg is one of the best-sourced college football writers in the country. "Jim Chaney is probably on the way out," is not something to be taken lightly from him.

If Pruitt still has the clout to fire Chaney on THAT contract, he might legitimately have a 5-year guarantee.

Pruitt just pissing money away that can be used on his own buyout...no wonder why his seat is safe...keep spending Pruitt! I wouldn’t wanna leave a cash cow either👏🏽👏🏽🗣🗣

Trey has played underwhelming this year. I
Hope he makes millions from what he’s been through but nobody on that offensive line screams first rounder with their play this year.

This has been confirmed by two people. One on the strength staff and the other a coach at Catholic. Trey was putting up BLM posters in the locker-room. Cade came in and saw it and told him we support you but you can't hang those in here. Words were said and supposedly Cade whooped his ass. Could explain why we have played so poorly if the team and locker-room is divided.

Because Sunseri was so successful in his last stint here?

No - I meant that the proximate cause/straw that broke the camel's back of Fulmer, Dooley, and Butch was the departure of a coordinator and their failure to replace them.

In Butch's case, it was more the departure of a QB, but Larry Scott was still totally inept.

We will be paying millions more for staff buyouts by not firing everyone this year and waiting til next year if we change OC and DC along with others. What a joke we are.

Yes, this is just digging a deeper hole. The new staff will be on 3 year contracts for the coordinators. So you are going to spend the money to buy out the final year of Chaney and Ansley this year, then when Pruitt gets fired next season you are going to have to buy out the final two years of the new coordinators.

Coordinator Jim Chaney, who came to Tennessee from Georgia in January 2019, is probably on his way out. What looked like a big-time hire for the Vols simply hasn't panned out, especially this season. Tennessee ranks 113th nationally in offensive points scored (18.1 PPG), 116th in third-down conversion percentage (32%), and 105th in both passing (184.3 ypg) and yards per play (4.98). In a season where offensive production is up, the Vols are headed the other way and not getting anywhere near the quarterback development needed to keep pace with Florida and Alabama.
"They're terrible on offense," an SEC assistant said. "It's brutal to watch. It's all about that one spot [quarterback] that's just so bad."
Pruitt already has made one staff change, firing defensive line coach Jimmy Brumbaugh after the fourth game. He likely will focus on offense and a coordinator hire that should shape a make-or-break season in 2021. The status of the rest of the offensive staff will be interesting. Pruitt is close with offensive line coach Will Friend, while wide receivers coach Tee Martin and running backs coach Jay Graham are both decorated former players at Tennessee.
Another factor is the recent news that eight football assistants were the only members of Tennessee's athletic department to decline pay cuts to address pandemic-related financial losses. Martin and Graham were the only assistants who took the reductions.
"It's a really bad look," an industry source said. "It's going to come up every time you lose in the next three or four years. Remember that time that everybody was in a national pandemic and nobody took a pay cut?"

I’d rather keep Chaney and get rid of Pruitt.

Remember a long time ago when Tennessee had just beaten Missouri and was 2-0. Those were the days.

In hindsight, I'm absolutely flabbergasted that we won those games. I said here last night that we're very lucky the punt hit the South Carolina player and we caught Mizzou on a bad day. We could totally be 0-7 otherwise.
