Dude, the Tennessee media just dropped the entire thing and didn't ask any further questions on it. As of Sept, the only stories anyone could find on the entire matter were still from last January
Maybe you think that's journalism
The media has released the publicly available letters exchanged between the parties. They can only report what they know bud. Neither side has provided any details. Pruitt 100% knows what was discussed between he and the NCAA for 7 hours. Transcripts of that meeting, which is part of an ongoing investigation isn't something the media can get through an FOIA request.

I know you looked at my links, because you changed your story from yesterday to "he's never denied anything" to "he was only ready to defend allegations"
No, I didn't change my story. My story has always been he hasn't denied the allegations because he hasn't. You thought you had a "gotcha" moment because his attorney said Pruitt will defend himself against the allegations as if that somehow refutes what I said. It didn't, but I thought it prudent to address because you brought it up thinking it meant something more than it did.

oops, except Kansas did the same thing and Jeremy's same lawyer now, got vindication for David Beaty at Kansas only a week ago.
KU self-reported that Beaty had an assistant commit a level II violation and that Beaty committed a level II violation by not properly monitoring the assistant. The NCAA then issued an NOA with the same allegations. Beaty argued it should have been a level III and not a level II. The IARP ultimately decided to withdraw Beaty's violation but not the assistant coach's.
UT has stated Pruitt committed multiple Level I and Level II violations over impermissible benefits, among other things, and that he was aware of it.
Further, the AD, Jeff Long, who fired Beaty was also fired. The person who fired Pruitt also fired the AD, Phillip Fulmer. It's a different situation here.

Nope. They can easily report that they are asking for further information and that their questions are not being answered.
In case you were wondering, that actually how journalism works.

you didn't go back and edit it did you?

on top of everything, the UT president Donde whatshername engaged in provocative character-attacking language.
Why would she do that?
If the facts were on her side, she could just say "We have parted ways with Coach Pruitt for cause, and he will not be receiving his buyout. Thank you very much."
But instead, she had to drag his character through the mud by using phrases such as "shocking" and whatever adjectives I can't remember that she used.
What he did was "shocking"? Okay, what was it? Oh, wait, you don't want to say.
It intentionally leaves things hanging in the air on Pruitt's character, purposefully without details, and I hope he gets a nice package of punitive damages from it for himself and the others fired.
