Serious here.... I think Jeremy Pruitt should be the next head coach.

No....Here is the scenario that I think will play out.

UT will lose today to Kentucky. Butch will be canned and an interim will be named. (Shoop, Hoke or Fulmer)

UT will go after home run hire. (Gruden, Patterson). If that doesn't work out then with Manning's influence, they will lure Cutcliffe back to right the ship. He isn't a home run hire, he is steady though, but isn't long term plan.

Cut will coach for 4-5 more years and try to groom his OC as the future coach. Offensively UT will be top 20. QBs and OL will be much better. He will keep Gillespie and get rid of the rest. Not sure on Shoop or Defensively who stays.

Yeah.. It's not some great feat anymore. Even the lesser teams do it now. We've returned to the bottom of the SEC.. Went full circle it seems.

Correction. Butch never made it too the top so half circle..

Gruden would be a gigantic failure as head coach at UT. He will never be the HC for the vols, so, all his Gruden talk is not only useless but makes UT fans look silly.

My client appreciates your healthy skepticism.

If you have a moment sir or madam, we would like to talk to you about Spider 2 Y Banana.

Pruitt created major locker room problems when he was at Georgia a few years ago under Mark Richt. Those problems were one of the reasons Mark Richt was forced to exit. Also worth noting that Kirby Smart (wisely IMO) chose not to retain Pruitt.

I'd compare Pruitt to Lane Kiffin. Pruitt is an excellent DC with a great track record on the defensive side when he can be reigned in by a strong, mature coach. As a head coach, however, his personality flaws would become a much bigger issue. Part of Mark Richt's failure his last two seasons at UGA was his inability to reign in Pruitt.

People underestimate how much of Saban's brilliance is simply being able to manage difficult personalities.

Yep. Guy is too power hungry. He is too much of a muntineer.

I heard a lot of this as well. Also heard from a friend who worked for FSU Rivals that he left Tallahassee in the middle of the night because he got caught with a female intern.

I would actually be excited to get Cut back. I think he was a major part of our success in the Fulmer era. Maybe he needs one last challenge before he rides off in the sunset. We wouldn't be in this mess if they had let him bring his coaches the first time around
