Tennessee: "Jeremy Pruitt decieved us"

Post by DonYates »

Is it me or does every time Tennessee has a good team they end up in hot water with the NCAA?

Pruitt's illegal cash payments via Chick-fil-A bag to a player's parent is currently the lead story on USA Today online. If it happened once, it certainly happened many times. Nothing will be done. It's the NCAA.

Duh alert... UTK is a crooked, classless program.

The story has degenerated from McDonald's sacks to Chik-Fil-A bags of money.

Waitaminunte, I'd take 1 bag of C-f-A* over 3 Mickie D's bags anyday.

*Which my Dad use to pronounce Chick-A-Fil

He big time cheated but he never won much of anything as coach.

If you’re going to cheat at least win the SEC the year you cheated.

Like LSU’s basketball coach Will Wade did when he cheated.

Just about every time a coach cheated in the SEC they had something to show for it.

Except for Pruitt.

Exactly. My 16 year old son asks me why I hate UT so much and I just point to events like this as he's too young to remember Linda Bensell-Myers or any of the antics in the late 90's when UT was just sweeping everything under the rug and watching Fat Phil just do whatever he wanted and producing so many NFL guys. It was a bubble that had to pop and UT fans have shown they just absolutely don't care about that so long as they win.
