Football Program Under Investigation [merged]

For the 10th time. Pruitts name wasn’t even mentioned in the article. We are stuck with him for another year

Give it a minute maybe? I'd say Pruitt is already looking for a mover willing to drive to 'bama.

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

Probably right.

I honestly don't think he would have been a candidate anyways, but this solidifies it IMO

 

[GrizzlyVol]

I guess we know why Gray and Maurer aren’t playing today.

Covid

 

[VOLED]

If we are this bad while cheating then we need to just burn it down to the ground and never resurrect it

This, this, this

 

[Ten_Titans]

He gone

 

[sona]

Covid

I don’t think a coach could have done more to sabotage a university from within more successfully than Jeremy Pruitt. Not saying he did it purposely but damn we are a worse mess today than I can ever remember.

 

[BigBadVol]

My wife just made a good point. Maybe someone within TN or even a booster alerted someone so they could fire Pruitt with cause and not have to pay the buyout. Maybe?

 

[CAVPUT]

Exactly. No chance Freeze is the next hire now.

Not necessarily. Wouldn't let the fear of NCAA keep us from hiring a coach. We did that with Pearl and he's doing his thing with an SEC rival. Pruitt's problem is that he still thinks he's at Bama where they always look the other way. We hire Freeze and he's going to know eyes are upon him and his efforts. He's well aware of how to swim in those waters. I'd hire him in a nano second. Same for Kiffin. I'm not looking for a saint. I want a damned football coach.

There's no saying if Gray and Maurer are actually the ones that took benefits. They could've missed today because of COVID for all we know. Obviously that is the assumption, but nieds was clearly the one that was mentioned and he wasn't even listed as a recruiter for either one. Doesn't mean he couldn't have done it, and maybe it was the defensive recruits this year.

If I had to guess, I suspect we were turned in by a rival who likely got info from a recruit who signed elsewhere or didn't sign in the early period. My money would be on UGA or Auburn.

Dont be dumb

This story was hinted at last night. Key players out, what reason would be given for their absence, etc. I'd say the poster knew what he was talking about.

Part of the atoz clan?

Go ahead and announce the postseason ban for this season like LSU did. Be proactive

This

 

[RockyTop140]

They’re finding a reason to get Pruitt out

 

[Captainzach1]

Eric Gray is not out because of Covid. Not sure on Maurer.

Sounds like a plan, but I doubt it. Even so, we now have the grounds to terminate with cause. The buck stops with Pruitt. If UT was struggling due to his buyout, they now have the solution to that problem. It's perfect timing to be sure. Hope they take advantage of the gift they were just given.

Spot on assessment of the situation.

Just In: Tennessee Football Under Investigation from Compliance and NCAA
Another source, good enough?

 

[imavolfan]

Sounds like the University is looking to fire Pruitt with cause to get rid of the buy out. I like it.

They were in contact with someone who had covid damn

 

[Rylee_Vol18]

Eric Gray is not out because of Covid. Not sure on Maurer.

Proof?

 

[ButchPlz]

So what we're saying is that we hired an Alabama moron to lose all the time and get us put on probation.

Get what you pay for I guess.

 

[DaddyChad]

Dont be dumb

Have they announced its part of their Covid protocol?

 

[GetEmVols]

Does this mean we can fire Pruitt with cause and hire someone with a high moral compass like Hugh Freeze?

Hello asterisked winless season.
