... is stuff like this:
Nation's #1 OLB Calls Pruitt "Outside Linebacker Master"
This is from Sav'ell Smalls, ranked as the #4 recruit in the country by 247. The full quote:
Doesn't even sound like we'd be in the running for this kid without Pruitt. This isn't the first time we've heard this from a recruit. Haynes King, one of our QB targets, also spoke in pretty glowing terms about Chaney and Weinke on developing QBs. I think King would've already committed to Texas A&M if he didn't like Chaney and Weinke so much.
After the Dooley and Butch disasters, I think I have a much higher level of skepticism than before, but it's starting to become a common theme to hear recruits talk about our coaches being the best at developing guys at certain positions. That's very good to hear, particularly when you consider that player development was one of Butch's major weaknesses.

“Coach Pruitt is here, he’s the head coach, and he’s the outside linebacker master,” Smalls said. “He knows everything about defense, he’s a defensive guru and he really develops pass rushers like no other. That’s a big plus being the head coach — and Tennessee up and coming.”
