Tennessee's New Head Coach, Jeremy Pruitt, Is A Decade Removed From Not Knowing What Asparagus Was12/7/2017
Love it. Absolutely love it. Just the type of move Tennessee needed to make. I don't know if Jeremy Pruitt is head coach material, nor do I know if he has what it takes to out-recruit the schools in his conference that didn't turn themselves into a punchline throughout an embarrassingly long and desperate search that might as well have been plucked straight out of Major League... I do, however, have reason to believe that he's interested in getting back to the basics. I mean, there's not a more "meat and potatoes" kind of guy than one that literally couldn't even identify popular types of produce by name. I'd be willing to bet that Jeremy Pruitt still hasn't tried that god-dumb green to this day, and that bodes well for a program whose biggest problem is that they currently have too much on their plate. A vegetable without starch? Why, that's about as unsatisfying as a defense without a middle linebacker! A colorful dish that hits on all levels of the food pyramid? All flash and no substance, just like one of them fancy, schmancy air-raid offenses! A versatile diet? This is the SEC we are talking about, and I ain't never heard of no team rebuilding from the ground up without sticking to the nuts and bolts of winning in the trenches. Tennessee needs to get back to punching people in the mouth. Somebody order Jeremy Pruitt the thickest of ribeye, because only suckers plant seeds for the future when they can come right in and establish a heart base.
