The official "Jeremy Pruitt has been fired" WATCH THREAD.

Yes I agree. 100% in 2012 I tore my acl. I had a fantastic surgeon. Was having small chit chat and someone asked who fixed my knee and I said his name. Well in the midst of the Dooley fiasco I was in for a checkup on the ACL and as probably like 6 months in. So almost cleared for all activities. But because my surgeon had a good relationship with the football team I was trying to get some clues as to what we were going to do about a coach. His reply was "they are getting the money to get the coach everybody wants." Nothing extraordinary right? Except I shared that on the message board and someone I think the guy who wanted to my surgeons name wayyyy earlier pieced it together and reposted it in a thread of "Cliffs Notes" with my surgeons name. So he got blown up as it was a Gruden heavy wishlist on this board as everybody knows. While I never said he said we were hiring Gruden. Those 2 messages being placed together put his name in a public forum and caused him some grief. I apologized and he took it well. But it taught me a valuable lesson about putting peoples identity in public as they can be dragged into awkward or bad situations. And on top of that if egregious enough putting someones name in a message board. They might choose to come after you in a slander lawsuit for defamation. I know thats a long read but its for the best to remove the "so called sources name."
Good lesson, glad he was cool about it. I know for a fact they have these forums read. Word gets back to those in the know. People can do what they want, but it is better to not name names.
 
Rumors are only welcomed when you have a legit source backing them.
Here's the definition of a rumor. Hope it helps

Definition of rumor
(Entry 1 of 2)
1: talk or opinion widely disseminated with no discernible source
2: a statement or report current without known authority for its truth
 
Parting words: I do not have to agree with anyone on this board but I at least respect your right to say what you would like. Unlike some of you, and you know who you are, I'm not going to list reasons on why you shouldn't have a voice because I don't like what you have to say.

I'm not taking the L here because I haven't lost anything other than hanging around with a ton of great people trying to be held in check by a few extremely vocal windbags.
 
We could go back and forth and you'll use the same old tired arguments as will I.

The only true free speech anymore is a sharpie, a poster board and a street corner. That only works until someone like you complains to the city and I get shut down.

I'm sorry you don't understand what "freedom of speech" actually means; because based on your posts it's pretty clear you don't.
 
Wannabe rich? I have never said my net worth nor lied about my hobbies. Total troll? Far from it. Conman? My only goal is to see UTAD make the right decisions.
Hey Beav, I have to hand it to you, you’re the Pied Piper of the Coaching Change. I got suggestion, I think you could really cash in. Next year go with “the only thing holding up the deal to get Whatever Average Coach We’ve Made into a Living Legend is proof that the average Vol fan is on board. To do that we need to have skin in the game. So suggest that anyone who is serious about change send you gift cards or money orders to help with the buyout. Say you will present the money at the next secret basketball game meeting

Yo man. All due respect....
you should never name a source on here just to get the approval of fellow members. If you want to be able to get more info, naming them is a poor idea. Just say what you’ve heard and let it prove itself when it happens. I have known some people really close to situations in the past that said stuff that didn’t end up happening. It happens. You should prob delete. Don’t get his name thrown around.
Gotcha. My mistake.
 
The source is Barney the Dinosaur, he was at an investors meeting today for the company I consult for. I eavesdropped his conversation when I heard them talking about about Tennessee football.


If I didn't already know that this is complete BS, I might advise you that disclosing on a public forum that you were eavesdropping on a client is an unadvisable career move.
