🏈 SEC Coaching Search: Reports: Pruitt to Tennessee: Chad Morris to UArk

[TUSKtimes]

What has Pruitt got himself into? Just watching the presser and they mentioned that Jeremy's son would rather be someplace else. Translation: he ain't taking off his crimson. His son has obviously got a heap more judgment that the adults in the room.

Pruitt definitely has been around Saban too long. He is using the term aright way more than Saban does. Says he will coach BAMA through the playoffs.

ATLANTA – New Tennessee coach Jeremy Pruitt has apparently dipped into his past to fill his job of defensive coordinator, hiring Georgia outside linebacker coach Kevin Sherrer, sources confirmed to UGASports.
No stranger to one another, Sherrer coached at Georgia with Pruitt during his two years as defensive coordinator of the Bulldogs, before remaining when Kirby Smart was named head coach two years ago.
Prior to coming to Georgia, Sherrer spent one season as the defensive coordinator at South Alabama after serving on the staff at Alabama where his responsibilities included assisting Crimson Tide student athletes with academics, community outreach and their personal lives.
A graduate of Alabama, Sherrer’s career with the Bulldogs was met with significant success, as he helped the Bulldog defense develop into one of the top unit this year in the SEC, and head into the Jan. 1 playoff game at the Rose Bowl with the nation’s second-ranked pass defense, allowing just 158.3 yards per game.
There is no indication whether Sherrer will stay with the Bulldogs through the Rose Bowl.
Sherrer earned $375,000 with the Bulldogs this year. He’ll get a significant raise to become the Vols’ defensive coordinator.
Among the candidates to replace Sherrer are believed to included former Georgia Southern head coach and longtime Smart friend Tyson Summers, formerly the defensive coordinator at Colorado State and Central Florida.

Another example of how out of touch SDS can be at times. Why the hell link Will with UAB? He hasn't been there in right at 10 years. (Left in '09 or '10.) After that he's the OL coach at UGA, running game coordinator at UGA, OC at CSU...but they're choosing to write "former UAB..." SMH.
