re: Pruitt vs Auburn

From a meeting in Columbus (au territory) right after he was hired:

quote:

---

Question 4) First thing coach, you gotta beat Auburn...

CJP: (interrupts the question,) "I'm not used to worrying about Auburn. Next question".


Question 5) For those of us who are concerned about the secondary, can you give us a reason to feel good about our secondary this year?

CJP: I've never been part of a bad secondary.

And sure enough he lived up to those.
