Yeah, but he was a great special teams guy when he was here, which I think is extremely important to consider

Coach O wasn't exactly a recruiting guru either

Special teams are important for sure. I just think a change that you'll see stressed with Pruitt is that everyone he hires will have certain expertise as a recruiter. He's from the Saban school of coaching that really stresses talent acquisition as paramount.

I also think it's unlikely that Pruitt knows Belin, making the hire unlikely.
