so Phil could remain untarnished and Pruitt’s buyout wouldn’t have to be paid? I have a hard time believing that an AD who was a former HC and player would know nothing about what’s going on with the recruiting practices being performed by the rookie HC that he hand picked. Fulmer’s always been a back-stabbing, look out for #1 type, and Pruitt’s dumber than a bag of hammers.

If the NCAA comes in and bones us, then it means he deserved to get fired.

Otherwise? Probably

Fat Phil didn't order the Code Red, this mess on Pruitt.

Phil is just covering his arse on the way out the door since he hired that turd.

No. Pruitt thought he was at BAMA and cheated like he was at BAMA.

Thats shitty. Hell, AU made a terrible mistake with Gus's contract,and even though Gus shite the bed and didn't deserve that type money, AU kept their end of the bargain and paid the man what was agreed to. UT sucks to not honor Pruitts contract

Phil has known everything that has moved within that program for the last 30 years. Phillip Fulmer is the Hillary Clinton of college football and Pruitt is just another victim.

Phil got fired too. Oh yes, they let him resign, but make no mistake about it. Fulmer wasn't allowed to remain as AD at Tennessee.

We will know once the punishment is put out. If Tennessee gets hammered then no. If Tennessee gets a slap on the wrist then absolutely.

Yes. We'll see how that plays out. They tend to pay them anyway.

Thing is Pruitt could take lots of folks down with him if he’s not paid. Be interesting to see if UT can keep the details under wraps.

This is on the top of the 1st innings with the ugly President from 10RC still standing in the batters box.

Hell even Glamour Shots couldn't help that girl
