re: Pruitt has told people that he will be the next DC at Alabama.

Well as far as dirt goes Freeze is the dirtiest cheatin-est coach I can ever recall in the SEC and 2nd place is a ways back in the mirror. So if they let him in as head I'm not sure who would be ineligible.

I don't doubt that Freeze was dirty, but he managed to maintain some level of deniability. He was likely obtaining hookers for recruits, but was able to spin a narrative that the hookers were for his use. That made him look like scum, but not responsible for NCAA violations. Pruitt apparently did acknowledge that he violated NCAA rules by personally providing money to a player's parent. The saving grace for Pruitt, if there is one, the player was not a recruit, and he was acting out of compassion for someone in genuine need.
