I do think Pruitt will get some leniency from the NCAA because he's been out of the game for more than two years now and got no buyout. Maybe time served or a one year suspension.

- Gottfried got a three-year show-cause plus a suspension of 40% of the first season after the conclusion of his show-cause order should he be hired by another NCAA school for impermissible inducements and contact violations
- Chuck Person was given 10 yrs in the Barn case for accepting bribes
- Assistant at Zona got 10 yrs for soliciting and accepting $ and transcript manipulation
- Two assistants in the recent LSU case got 3 yrs for impermissible contact only
- Orlando Early in the NC State case got 6 years for arranging $40K in payments
- People (not Freeze) received 8, 5, and 2 year show causes in the Ole Miss case

Given the UT case involves 18 Level I (major) allegations, many of which involve Pruitt directly, it would be surprising if he did not get at least 3 years based on some of these cases.
