I believe this will be Pruitt's first recruit he put in the NFL. Top recruits go to schools to make it to the NFL. Atleast he can start selling something.

I have no idea how he's going to do in the draft. Statically all three of his years were almost identical.

Bryce will be a later round pick. Not much you can brag about honestly. He could've snuck up into the middle rounds if he had an outstanding year (which he did not)

That’s you, you are not in his position, you’re not him. I won’t ignore you because it’s fun to dismantle your dumb posts. You of all people who tweet at players and recruits have no business telling another parent with the skin in the game what he should or shouldn’t do.

My son is in high school and even I know you better shut up and keep off social media if you don’t want to negatively affect your child.

Losing Bryce sucks but we also need to start having more of a presence in the draft. Only positive spin I can muster.

I think with AT, Burrell, and Lawrence we can still be solid. Definitely need a pass rush though.

Trying to not get too excited about that JUCO DE we took but I’m hoping he can step in week one and wreak havoc a little.

Yep.... a pass rush will cure many things.

TIFWIW:

Source of mine saying that Pruitt is bringing back Butch's brick by brick slogan next year. Been told that UTAD may make it the official slogan of UT sports. Also hearing he is bringing back the turnover trashcan. Instead of turnovers, it's going to be for every defensive stop on 3rd down.

Again, this is just what my source has been told.

Not true, you left out playing 3rd down for what.

Maybe. But at the end of the day he's a small corner who had a less-than-stellar last year. His UT bio for his junior year is kind of sad actually

2020 - JUNIOR

Has allowed only one touchdown this season ... Had a momentum-swinging interception that he returned 18 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter as well as two tackles in win at Vanderbilt (12/12), earning SEC Co-Defensive Player of the Week honors for his efforts ... Filled the stat sheet with six tackles, one pass breakup and one interception at #23 Auburn (11/21) ... Made four tackles at Arkansas (11/7) ... Made three tackles and defended one pass against #2 Alabama (10/24) ... Made four tackles, forced and recovered a fumble against Kentucky (10/17) ... Started at corner and recorded one TFL in win over Missouri (10/3) ... Started at safety and set a new career high with a team-leading eight tackles while also adding a tackle for loss in season-opening win at South Carolina (9/26).

And how would feel if he magically played to his potential?

Wasn’t he hurt most of this season and didn’t the previous year.... he rated really high as a DB..... there was plenty of chatter about him being a first round pick..... unfortunately, covid and his injuries hurt him this season.

“Best” corner filled up the stat sheet against Arky and Vandy. Good luck Thompson.

Our school needs to stand up and start to protecting its programs like others do..... Look at Alabama( new cars everywhere, pictures of players on boosters yachts, players advertising for local business..... Auburn and Cam Newtons 250,000 dollars....... Look at how hard Ole Miss tried to defend/protect High Freeze and he had multiple level 1 infractions and was challenging people to prove it.... until we want to put football on the pedestal it deserves...... we will always be 2nd rate.

I think they tried to keep it quiet. You can't put this genie back in the bottle. Fulmer may be trying . I just don't think Pruitt has another friend in the building. Unfortunately there may not be a way to exit this without damaging his reputation and frankly you cannot blame him for fighting back.

It depends on what he really measures.... the nfl is not as much about production as it is about potential.... if he is really 5’11 and runs in the 4.4 range or below..... his stock will grow.
