NASHVILLE If there is one thing that has become clear in the past decade with Tennessee football, it’s that it has more twists and turns than a daytime soap opera.
The latest twist came Monday morning when it was reported that Jeremy Pruitt had been fired with cause by the University of Tennessee and that Director of Athletics Phillip Fulmer would be “retiring” at when his replacement was found.
Pruitt’s firing is not a surprise. There has been an investigation around the football program since mid-November and signs were pointing to Pruitt’s future at Tennessee being very much in jeopardy. The fact that Tennessee was able to fire him with cause and avoid paying his buyout of $12.6 million leads you to believe that whatever the “Level 1” and “Level 2” violations that have been found here are very substantial. It will be interesting to see whether or not Pruitt’s legal representatives seek payment.
