Supporting the idea that Tennessee and Pruitt are facing potential severe NCAA sanctions is a pretty strange way for a sympathizer to act.

It's as simple as this - for the longest I thought it was 50/50 that 'violations' were being used as a convenient excuse to get rid of Pruitt. Then his attorney loudly and publicly declared "If UT doesn't come to the table and settle by X date we're going to be filing a suit and it will all burn down."

Tennessee's reply was "make your move." The deadline came, no suit was filed then and still hasn't been months later. There's not much way to read that other than Pruitt's side was bluffing. He either didn't have the goods or (more likely) was so deeply involved in whatever happened that he can't take down the Vols without destroying any reputation he's got left.

and vice versa, if they have something on it they would have brought the evidence out. seems if they have it, its so damaging to them they cant use it. They are trying to use the impression that it exists to get out of paying him but cant actually follow through. pruitt is a dumbasss but hes an outstanding DC. if the ncaa hammer is not evere going ot drop, i see no reason not to bring him back. he doesnt have a show cause, and if something like that comes down later, well we move on from him. hes the best DC we have had under saban
