Not surprised he was fired but am surprised he was fired midseason.
Not one of my favorite people
-
lol, I read somewhere that he may join the Vol staff in some capacity.

One of the other boards was speculating he could be UT's Defensive Coordinator.
Another speculated he would take a similar posts as Jones at Bama as a defensive analyst ( at minmum wage) until South Carolina pays off his contract....lol

Seems like they could find a place for him on Fox News.

He has a bit of an anger management issue, I think.
Maybe he's an OK DC.

They'll be making Hugh Freeze an offer before the week is out and we'll still be stuck with Tater Head.
I think the damn democrats are running the University of Tennessee the decisions are about the same as the shit we see from congress.

Might as well enjoy the rest of the Rick Barnes era while it lasts ....... they’ll replace him with one of his assistants and that never works out

Maybe UT could poach SC's Defensive Line Coach - Tracy Rocker...
Oh wait....

I disagree with firing Muschamp during this messed up season (not that I care).
The same dynamic holds with Pruitt.
I haven’t seen anyone, other than the usual suspects that have established their winning formula for years (e.g., Bama, Clemson), perform consistently in a year where East Carolina cracked the top 25, and Cincinnati the top 10.
Look at Georgia, and how they’ve struggled.
This is a practice year.
We’ll never know how our momentum might’ve carried over from ’19 in a normal year. We’ll never know how our guys might’ve built on that, and developed off it.
You’ll say “you’re using the virus as an excuse.”
Damn right I am. It has fundamentally altered all of our lives, and the character and agenda of this nation, going forward. To downplay the profound effect it has had — and will continue to have — on every aspect of our society, is to ignore reality.
I think we’ve all been disabused of any notion that Pruitt is some kind of idiot savant type football coach, though. Someone who can’t speak English at a grammar school level, but knows what it takes on the gridiron, inside and out.
He is a guy with, at best, serviceable skills as a football coach. Unless he proves different, which seems unlikely. He has shown promise a recruiter, but that will change quickly, based on recent performance.
But just as it would be a mistake to judge him on the 8-game (?) streak: it would be another to judge him on this screwy year.
We don’t have much choice, other than to see what he can do in a couple of “normal” years. If we’re ever able to return to anything approaching a semblance of those. Which is highly doubtful (more like certain to not occur).
With the hole we’ve dug ourselves in, we really need to take a break from digging.
Besides — if the Dimocrats manage to steal the two Georgia Senate seats, what a bunch of 20-year-olds do on a field of grass will be the very least of our concerns.

I tend to classify those that follow UT sports in two categories......Fans and Critics . The Critics seem happiest when we're struggling.

More bad news for the Gamecocks. They just had 3 DB starters "opt out" for the rest of the season. A DL did also.

WTF? Really? It's the democrats' fault?
No one who'd hire Hugh Freeze would be considered a democrat.

For a school teacher, you offer no value add to any conversation in which you inject yourself as you slink by.

Of course they would: he cheated, got caught and then got a job where he can cheat some more. That's the definition of a democrat.

You don't need any hands to count the number of decision-making Democrats at Liberty "University." Try again.
