I seriously think Jeremy's lack of academic sophistication may be his downfall. He's going to catch hell from Academia at large and at UT for his poor grammar. Pruitt used the non-existent contraction wadn't 3 times in his brief Presser to describe fans & players that didn't "show up" to watch or play in the Spring Game. The proper contraction for the context he was referring to is "weren't". Using the redneck term "Wadn't" makes Pruitt sound like an idiot.

Wadn't makes Pruitt sound like an uneducated man and it will hurt him with a lot of people including Recruits parents, Academia, the Media, and the general public. I never heard Pruitt talk before and had no idea his grammar was so bad.

Pruitt is the face of a major College Football Program now and he's got to at least sound like he graduated from High School.

eta- If Jeremy doesn't realize how important his grammar is now that he's the face and spokesman for the Vols he will fail.

Maybe if he was recruiting for Harvard or Stanford. I’d be shocked if the parents of any SEC recruit were that bothered by it.
