Honeymoon is over for Pruitt. More issues looming...

A fairly significant percentage of the people on VN have already started to turn on him after yesterdays fiasco, and now a new potential real doozie crept up on them yesterday afternoon. Check out the thread on late offer and signee Joseph Norwood of Brainerd. Didnt play his jr year after transferring from Ooltewah. That much is confirmed. The rest is...well...
Advance to page 9 of his thread and start reading. Initial excitement and then the clouds move in.

Page 11 some peoples tune changed.
Im very thankful we arent having that discussion. For real.
R ape is never anything you want a recruit involved in.
Those fans are justified in their rage with Pruitt. He's been there too long to have such a terrible NSD. They should call for his firing immediately! It will take Phil 3 years, but with attitudes like theirs--they will probably get their wish. More laughter for us in the meantime!
Amazing how quickly some will change their toon when they find out something.
I think Pruitt is a good coach. And I know Richt was head coach but Pruitt never struck me as the absolute best recruiter. ZO and bell, Roquan and TT were great players he brought in but he left our secondary in a position that we have had to protect it for 3 years now. To me Pruitt has recruited well but he recruits to the status of the school he was at. He did better at FSU and Bama than he did here. Kirby has made UGA an FSU or Bama type destination.
I would not be happy if my coach was signing a recruit found guilty of raping four high school freshmen with a pool cue. Left one young man hospitalized and requiring emergency surgery. Being from Ooltewah... it was weird to hear about it happening at the high school.
Thanks for finding this stuff for us. They provide us great amusement! If anyone finds the Gator forum with sad fan threads, please feel free to post. I'd love to read that too.
Fulmer and feast... words that go together like PB&J
I think Pruitt will get them back to a bowl game, be the next super-hot coaching prospect, and bail for a big program. I don't see him getting UT to the SECCG, but just enough to look competitive again...which when compared to where they are now would be a miracle. That will be enough to get other programs interested. I just think there is something culturally wrong with the UT program, and hiring Fulmer as AD was absolutely a step in the wrong direction. I think Pruitt has bigger and better things in his future.
The fundamental problems with Vol Nation haven’t changed: weak recruiting base, under-performing University, redneck fan base, and a long trail of failed teams over the past 20 years. The administration there is a problem, but a bigger problems is unrealistic expectations on a weak coaching staff. I could be wrong, but Pruitt will be gone in four years before he has time to turn things around.
How long was he at FSU? it's been mentioned several times on this forum that he was the NC DC but with other folks' recruits. Was he there long enough to have a major recruiting impact?
Was coaching high school till 2010 bama DBs 10-11 FSU 12-13 uga 14-15 bama 16-18
I’m no Vols fan, especially after AJs phantom unsportsmanlike, Nicks injury, and the Hail Mary.
That being said, Vol fans need to pump their brakes on Pruitt. Kirby’s first year, we dang near lost to Nichols State
The situation with this man offered by the Vols is VERY disturbing. I read through their message board for a while. To most of their fans’ credit, they are horrified and don’t want him wearing prisoner orange - except as a prisoner. However, some fans are looking the other way and making excuses for Pruit. This player helped sexually assault a minor with a broom and plead guilty. And they are complaining about a hat being tossed?
