The part that’s ironic about all of this is that we are talking about turning a kid into a man.
However, if you try that in the NFL, a man will knock you out.
So, it’s just funny to me.
People pull that crap on kids. They don’t do it to men
I'm not creating a false anything.
I'm telling you what Pruitt did is going to get a different reaction from players at the professional level because they are men. Period. The public admonishment, the reaching for the facemask, etc. And proof of that is go find video where that happens to a professional player publicly and he just stands there and takes it. You aren't going to find too many of those videos and the players in question are more than likely going to be scrubs.
But, in addition, the tweet in the original post went further.
"you have my permission to lay hands on him, his facemask, his shoulder pads, or put his butt on the ground. I'm signing him over to you to develop a man, warrior and winner. Signed, Dad"
Try what's in bold at the professional level and see what happens. Better yet, send a coach to the dad who wrote this and have them do this to the dad and see what happens.
Thought those of you who don't use Twitter might like to see this.
“Dear [Coach Pruitt] and other Vol coaches:
If my son acts like a nut, or needs correcting, you have my permission to lay hands on him, his facemask, his shoulder pads, or put his butt on the ground. I'm signing him over to you to develop a man, warrior and winner. Signed, Dad,” Jamie Hyatt tweeted on Sunday morning.
