Aren't the Browns and Vols run by the same booster?

I remember hearing that sometime ago. Sounds fitting now.

Supposedly Haslam wanted Georgia's defensive coordinator, but Phat Phil went against him and got Pruitt

Yep, the same booster that has had a strangle hold on the UTAD for a while now. Currie was Haslam's "yes man", he got fired, Haslam wanted Currie's 2nd in command to replace him, UTK went with Fulmer which has started the dominoes to remove the Haslam stranglehold. Haslam wanted and tried to tell/make Fulmer hire Mel Tucker, Fulmer offered(and now hired) Pruitt. The stranglehold is weakening. Other big booster(Dish Network CEO Charlie Ergen) has already said that he'll make up the difference for whatever the Haslam's don't donate if/when they are "dethroned"
