Who was the rat?

[Smokeyone]

The Chancellor said in the presser it was someone outside the program. I think it was Kirby Smart after Mims chose Georgia and spilled the beans on what's going on at UT.

They said it was a reputable source but didn’t specifically say in or out of house.

 

[PG1]

Saban because he saw we was close to beating his arse!

 

[golfballs]

What kind of idiots are going to say a kid or his dad turned in the coaches that were paying them? You don't think that would implicate them, or prevent them from playing next year? Some of you knuckle dragging idiots couldn't wipe your butt for the sole reason of preventing brain damage. It wasn't a player. I would guess Brumbaugh since he and Pruitt became on over night embarrassment.

Lmao, pay JG for what exactly? Also, he was recruited by Butch, not Pruitt

No she didn’t. She said it was someone they felt credible and that’s as far as she would go

Meh. Tee loves TEE.

Therefore he would have little incentive to blow up his job and career by turning state's.

Thanks for the laugh.

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

I'm gonna say Jimmy Brumbaugh.

I know one of the HS coaches of a DL that went to UK under Brum. I would say the same answer you did...

Not necessarily.

 

[madbamahater]

I bet Tee or JG. But JGs playing time sure did change right at the same time didn’t jt

Yes. The timing is more than coincidental in my opinion. He gets benched and then all this stuff starts to come out.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Kirby Smart

 

[37620VOL]

Not necessarily.

plz explain

 

[feathersax]

Tee was overrated. Had one good season in college & did little afterwards.

plz explain

 

[VOLfrombama]

I'm gonna go with Kirby. There was a leak and eventual news source citing UGA was involved o0r possibly in some trouble, but then they self reported some bullcrap level 3s and that was it. Mims committed to UGA around the same time.

 

[vol94]

Tee loves the school to much.

How ironic would that be as he received benefits (cash) his last yr on campus. I can’t recall the specifics but there was an investigation.

 

[utvolz98]

Im guessing Tee

Same

 

[vol94]

JG fo sho! He is a biatch. Watching him pout on the sideline when he got benched is all i needed to see.

We don’t know that and can only speculate. Maybe he did, maybe he didn’t. It could be another student athlete for all we know, an upset ex girlfriend.

JG was not a SEC QB but I don’t fault any competitor wanting to play vs sitting on the bench.

 

[Samburger]

Call it what you'd like a snitch is a snitch is a snitch probably a disgusting I individual with no moral or character who has probably passed or received money under the table in his day. Tennessee needed a new football coach but not like this

Who was the rat?

Finebaum reported it was inside the program but @Stoerner Fumbles stated it was Mim’s family.

 

[Stoerner Fumbles]

I think it’s more complicated than that. The original issue involved Mims. Someone in player relations shined a light on that. They interviewed him, and his family and opposing teams coaches involved in his recruitment. They uncovered not only those infractions, but a pattern. It isn’t fair to blame Mims, his family, other coaches, or our coaches who answered honestly. Blame Nieds. Blame Felton. Nieds was out of control. He was throwing parties. He had regular party room at a local hotel, and handed out money to recruits through our own players, from what I’ve heard.

No she didn't. They asked her if it were inside the program, and she avoided answering that by saying it was very credible.

 

[BJSforVols]

Would be really ****** if it was JG or his dad. Pruitt was loyal to a fault

Would they even know? He wasn't even recruited by this staff.

 

[lewis co vol]

This low level go on at programs all the time Finebaum just said happened once at Bama but they Bama Ad Min turned their head because they won SEC but said it was a bad move because the next year was bad. I'm trying to figure out which Bama HC Finebaum was talking about. Franchione 2001 2002???

It may have been one of stallings teams

JG

I bet he is the only Qb to ever get two college coaches fired. I guess he will get in the record book after all.
