Looks like Fulmer made his choice.

There was just way too much complacency and Pruitt, a man who didn't like coaches collecting paychecks whilst openly pontificating how recruiting is overrated; Georgia not having an IPF being used against it on the trail; and the yacht, caviar, cocaine & boob job big donor class sitting on its hands and not pumping $ into the program, wouldn't go for it. I applaud him for his efforts because he initiated a cultural change in the program - an evolution of sorts - that afforded us the opportunity to get Kirby. Jeremy is a change agent.

You could say Pruitt was the Moses and Kirby was the Joshua. Pruitt didn’t get to enter the promised land, but Kirby did
I will have you know I didn't get my boob job until after I sent in my Hartman contribution.
All kidding aside, you're right about Pruitt being a change agent. I will point out, however, that those types of people often don't last very long as they tend to burn bridges. If you look at Pruitt, this will be his 5th different job in less than 7 years. I know some of that was dictated by circumstances but it would concern me if I were Tennessee. I think Pruitt is a good coach and this could be a homerun for them. It could also completely blow up in their face.
So, who is Bama's next DC. That will be interesting.

Lupoi
Would Saban go after Tucker or Sherrer?
I don't think that Tucker would leave to be Bama's DC because that would be a lateral move. Sherrer is likely gone, to either Tennessee or Alabama to be DC. I don't think Sherrer leaves unless it is for a DC job.

Sherrer is what I've read as possible replacement. It would benefit Bama to promote Lupoi to keep him from leaving, but you never know with Saban.

Good points, but I think he will be around for a while if somehow Phillip/program don't screw it up and run him out of town. It will be a learning curve for him just like it was for Kirby. Phillip needs to be patient and understand there is a ton of rebuilding that needs to take place.
The East (or the usual top 3) is well on their way and about to be dominate again. Interesting times ahead

I agree. Not sure if he's a home-run HC, but he is certainly better than who they have been offering. I'm really surprised Leach didn't get it.

Leech's nut ball personality is probably what kept him from the job. Not my guy for rebuilding a program. Hard for me to do, but I will get ole Phillip some credit for knowing they need a strong mentality type of coach and found one. I will take the Pruitt risk over the Leech risk all day
Seeing reports now that either Pruitt takes Sherrer, or Saban will take him. Either way, doesn't look like he will be at UGA next season.

My man thanks for the direction haha. It was easier to have you do that.
Not that I am the internet police, but it's the polite thing too do to post links to keep someone from having to search for exactly what your talking about.
