| FTBL Tennessee / Pruitt sanctions announced

Around here. Small inconsequential sample for sure. Most all believe they ( them Vols) will walk especially with the lsu wording ????? "the ncaa doesn't want to punish the current administration since they had no dog in the antics" and " them vols" already sanctioned themselves ...
and they really didn't have many win's during JP era anyway to forfeit

Somehow. Them Vols always seem to escape. So. Probably Will again
I don't have a clue how they'll rule on the school itself. All I'm saying is what's posted here are the feelings from JP's camp.
 
A caveat: We've seen situations where we thought the NCAA would give a program a slap on the wrist only to see heavy sanctions. We've also seen schools who deserve heavy sanctions receive a slap on the wrist.

Bottom line: Who really knows how they'll rule?

All that said what I've been sharing is still the belief coming from their camp. More to the point, they are expecting to hear the final ruling from the NCAA soon. They are expecting good news and are also suggesting we'll see JP in the role we've been pointing to for several months: analyst, secondary.
Interesting given how they handled LSU situation.... I hope Pruitt is back soon.
 
I understood he violated come Covid protocals during his tenure and they NCAA was more upset about that than payments. Just an observation. Giving JP a slap on the wrist and the hammering the Viles would help Bama so I expect it to be the opposite. Pure speculation but do not see them making a ruling that would benefit Bama.

When in reality that's nothing more than impermissible contact. That's a Level III violation. It's really no different than the thread talking about Penny and Memphis (three game suspension.)
 
Well he will never coach college again
