| FTBL UA Coordinator/coaching changes— SPLIT into offensive and defensive threads.

[TerryP]

For those that want to say that Brady was only the “passing game coordinator” and that it was Ensminger that was OC. Go back and look at Ensminger called offenses BEFORE Brady. The guy was hot garbage as OC and The Ogre only hired him because he was an old friend.

Steve Ensminger = Bob Connelly.

Maybe a better question is are you hearing anything like this @TerryP ?

How does the SEC "clear" someone they can't "color?"

Hes saying SEC can't tell Alabama thumb up or down.. they can only share their concerns. Bama can do whatever they want... It's the NCAA that Bama is communicating with.

 

[Justneedme81]

Alabama has their compliance team... they cleared him.
SEC offices call and discuss Pruitt. They share concerns from Georgia/Tennessee to Bama... Ask for path forward and etc.
Alabama tell SEC office to "Fuck off"
Alabama checks with NCAA to see if there's something to work out on Pruitt.. like maybe he can't recuit for a year... get show cause etc.

Speculation here; nothing more,nothing less.

I suspect it's Pruitt and the NCAA "working things out."
I believe the administration knows what's the worst case scenario and made their decisions with that in mind.

The NCAA is in an awkward situation as they've almost given up any sanctioning powers over the last two years.

A LOT of smoke today.

Today I was reminded of something I told you guys over the holidays last year which would give Sankey reason to be worried about Jeremy's return. It's a little funny to me looking back...almost two years ago, to the date, we had a conversation here about how mad Tennessee was about Butch Jones landing at Bama. @Brandon Van de Graaff pointed out not only did he come here, but UT paid him to work under Saban for years.

Tennessee and Fulmer were pissed off to no end that Butch landed at Bama, on their dime, and road out the contract.

When all of the allegations hit the news from the Pruitt /UT deal and they ended up firing Pruitt he was pissed off himself; to the point of threatening to sue Tennessee.

Now, for a minute ...

Imagine you're Sankey and Bama's is about to hire someone who has all the intentions of suing a fellow conference member. How would you feel and react?

Thanks for the update though

The Freeze to Auburn opened the door for Alabama to hire Pruitt on the staff. I h

Damn you're on point the last few days LOL. I was coming to post that. Funny he decided to buy a truck today.

 

[TerryP]

Funny he decided to buy a truck today.

Why?

He bought a truck in the same county he was born; in North Alabama where he lives.

Did he buy a truck when he left for Tennessee?

 

[TerryP]

Did he buy a truck when he left for Tennessee?

Does he need a truck at the house? Yes. Hell, I'd doubt the man has ever bought a car.

To answer your question, no. Why would he? That position came with a vehicle, if not two.

Small logic test here.

We can assume the truck he's standing in front of his his new purchase, right? There's only two ways he's buying a truck with tires that look like those. One, someone just traded that in and the dealership is about to clean the truck. This I doubt unless he made a point of having the truck inspected. Or two, he had the truck and he closed out a lease or something akin.

The SEC is already being sued by Lance Thompson who is accusing them (Sankey) of blackballing him from league jobs post-NCAA issues. If the Pruitt vs. Vols thing is a legit issue, it might not be a bad time for Pruitt's attorney to remind the commissioner of that.

I know JP was "chewing nails" when all of that broke. He doesn't strike me as one to forgive and forget. He's grown into someone that's quite the opposite from my perspective.
