I know u r a big u t follower.
Jeremey P was here in pensacola along with someone from u of a recruiting a top athlete. He seems to be doing a good job at what he do es well - recruiting. With fulmer in the back ground he could be more of a dabo head coach with really good oc and dc types. They could be the Clemson of the sec - a fun place to play.

Do u see him letting the dc run things .
Can they give ugag a run in 19?

By way every time Saban has won a natty ( lsu and ala), a player from pensacola has been on team. Schools are not so much, so not a fertile place for gt. Example gt recruit - J Thomas is on niceville. Basketball which is not doing well as they play the 3 pensacola schools that are all - 19-3. i go to all their games that i can wearing yellowjacket gold tee shirt. I have spotted a couple of rising soph players on catholic -(good academic school) that are possibilities in the new recruiuting initiative.

I think Jeremy Pruitt could very well be a Nick Saban clone in his coaching style. I think Tennessee will be back to challenging and winning the SEC East however I can't see them rising to the level Clemson is right now;) The problem is when Tennessee is back to being a strong contender in the SEC East the chances that Jeremy Pruitt succeeding Nick Saban increases. If he leaves a strong program when and if he returns to Alabama I don't think Tennessee will have a hard time finding a good replacement.

Good point about back to alabama- saban hired him to help recruit - hint hint - his dad is legendary coach at Hoover high! Then saban and he coached the defensive backs together. Would anyone in their ri ght mind folkow saban?

With pruit being mostly defensive minded, he could let fulmer have more say over offense- a more pass heavy offense in sec will attract talented qb - Young cooper manning 2023!

I don't think Phil is going to try to have a voice in how the team is coached,he's happy to be the AD and sitting behind a desk;)
