I am guessing he only learned how to do this after he left Alabama. Per the NCAA he was clean as a whistle while at 'Bama. He became a cheater at a later stage in his career.

$60K is chump change and small potatoes. Major programs paid tons more for recruits. The NCAA is a joke.

I would say that UT would be hit with a penalty, but hasn't the last decade been penalty enough?

Proper punishment should be to make them continue to pay.

He paid for his recruits to get their nails done? No wonder Tennessee's football team is so soft.

Paying for recruits to go to nail salons? No wonder they suck even after cheating. They’re targeting some suspect players.

With the NIL now, why is the NCAA perusing this?

Some of those infractions are still not compliant with NCAA recruiting rules. Regardless of NIL

Guess ok penis head will be too toxic to be on staff again. It's a shame, he's an outstanding DC, should have never tried to be HC

LSU and Will Wade were notified of just 8 level 1 violations, by comparison. Pruitt swung for the fences and got 18 for Tennessee.

I assume Pruitt was continuing the Saban recruiting tradition, remember when Jimbo told Saban to STFU about NIL money, because he knows alot about Alabama's recruiting

Jimbo is missing a chromosome, and if you think he has anything on Saban, you're probably missing one too. If Jimbo had ANYTHING on Saban, he'd already be screaming bloody murder.

Saban is a good cheater. His tree can’t cheat as good.

Probably could have gotten a middle man but I still think a coach giving players 60k is still a no-no.
