Hopefully there is loop hole and he can sport the orange!

Not that I needed extra incentive to root against Bama but I hope they lose miserably.

If he is our coach and he coaches the playoffs, I hope they lose 3-0

 

[columbia vol]

Better be hitting the weights . Culture is fixing to change.

Any ideas on S&C coach?

Hopefully Johnny Long

 

[volsnvikes]

Crap..

Here is a question for everyone

As much as it hurts me to even consider this. Do we root for Bama :sick: in the playoffs since it will make Pruitt look better if they win?

0-2 loss in first round Imho. Not his fault Hurts got tackeled in The end zone.

 

[Catbone]

So we're screwed out of the early signing period?

 

[butchna]

Expecting the momentum to begin in earnest as we move toward the afternoon hours....
Hope Freak is prepared...he has had enough time...lol

People posting for likes better get em all in.

 

[Jimmy Football]

It's gotten a bit too quiet for my liking.

Huh? No.

 

[GoBigOrangeUT]

Must be nice to expect championships so much that Alabama writes it into coaches contracts that they have to stay to coach in the playoffs. I wonder if Butch and crew had a similar clause for the Music City Bowl.

Saw it on Twitter. Don't know where. But Kirby was at UGA for 10 days then went back to Bama and prepped for playoff/split time doing UGA stuff. Worked out all right for him I'd say.

 

[Z06VolinWV]

Smart did fine staying for the playoffs. Hopefully they will lose first round

Were UG commits dropping like flies like ours are? Didn't follow.

 

[butchna]

So we're screwed out of the early signing period?

What? :huh: Pruitt would be in Knoxville fully at work. Just like Kirby was during the same time period for your school.

 

[SLICKYINC]

He absolutely will stay for the playoffs. It is likely written in his contract.

I heard somewhere that Saban is so used to losing coaches that it is written into the contract. But he has a room for the leaving coaches to do their new coaching gig.

 

[bignewt]

That was for Newt and his bet that Tee wouldn't come here.

Expect a visit from Big Newt's ghost if that happens, just sayin.'

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Need to hear something. Thought it would be leaking by noon. 13 minutes from now.

 

[WarMachine]

Any indication?

jobiwan is correct, I remember thinking how strange it was that Kirby was employed by UGA and working for Bama.

Before 1pm I'm betting. Let's doooop this

Report: Alabama's Jeremy Pruitt a top contender for Tennessee job

Pruitt won two national championships (2011 and 2012) while at Alabama. He won a third title at Florida State in 2013.

The Rainsville, Alabama native was a finalist for the 2013 and 2016 Broyles Award, given each year to the best college football assistant coach.

Pruitt’s teams put up impressive defensive numbers, often ranking in the top 10 in the country in points and yards per game.

2013: Florida State: 1st in points per game, 3rd in yards per game
2014: Georgia: 25th in points per game, 18th in yards per game
2015: Georgia: 9th in points per game, 8th in yards per game
2016: Alabama 1st in points per game, 1st in yards per game
2017: Alabama: 1st in points per game, 2nd in yards per game

There was no early signing that year. This is the first time teams must deal with Dec 20th signings.

Before they still had time to react to non-early enrollees between bowl games and first week in February.

Most of our commits aren't that good anyway.

I can see Fulmer being an intermediary for this

 

[butchna]

Heard it was in contract for him to stay, and they provide separate office for Tennessee related activities.

Seems awkward.

Kiffin spent most of his time in Florida recruiting and staff building. They’re not going to seize Pruitt’s passport.

 

[BigZiti09]

People don’t need to freak over the early signing period. Way overblown.

 

[Odiodin]

Any indication?

FWIW, Pruitt’s following count has gone down one since the first time this was rumored last night.
