Decent hire for Tennessee under the circumstances. Bad news for Alabama though. This early signing period is crucial and Pruitt will have to work really hard up until the signing period to salvage a recruiting class at Tennessee. Hard to do that and get a gameplan ready for Clemson. I believe Saban will cut ties immediately.

Also how much better of a hire is this than Greg Schiano? Pruitt has never been a head coach.

Dec 6, 17, 10:20 PM #4I know most of us have made fun of the Tennessee coaching search, but your first head coaching job being in Knoxville? That's pretty nice.

Dec 6, 17, 10:29 PM #5Meh. I think it's a terrible hire but whatever.

Any word on the contract details?
Will be interesting to see how Vegas views this in terms of the Alabama vs Clemson matchup.

Solid pick. A Fisher/Saban product.

Dec 7, 17, 05:23 AM #11Sounds like he possibly has a pretty good staff lined up already if the rumors I'm hearing are true.
Tee Martin or Chip Lindsey as OC
Todd Lupoi as DC
Will Friend as OL coach
Tracy Rocker as DL coach
and probably try to keep Gillispie as RB coach.

It seems like Alabama has a coordinator get hired about every year before the playoffs and is an extra distraction. I guess that happens when you are a top tier program.

Dec 7, 17, 06:21 AM #14I think it's a very good hire.
Pruitt has been deserving of a HC job for a while IMO.
