Fulmer needs to keep his ass out of things. Knew it was a huge mistake to hire him as AD

I thought he did a good job getting us back on course. I'm not liking anything I'm hearing these days. I'm just not thrilled with the old guard of coaches. I want to see someone who has done impressive things in the last 5 years - as a head coach. Not a career position coach or even Coordinator.

I've got to get this off my chest. I am so tired of Alabama. Let me say this, first of all, it is very clear that this game is not fair. Alabama did not have any, not any, problems with covid 19. Every other team in the country is dealing with contact tracing and things like this, causing them to have players missing or games canceled. At bama? Not a word. No problems after they all conveniently had it in the summer when nothing was going on. No contact tracing, no starters missing, no players absent, no chance at games cancelled, nothing. Alabama was the only team in the country not affected by Covid 19 in any way.

On top of this, we are currently under investigation for the recruitment of 2 players who signed with freaking GA. Where do you think our head coach learned to recruit? Of course from Alabama. They continue to sign the best class in college football, with numerous five star players, and yet you never hear a word of an investigation down there. And if you do, it's from guys who have already been removed from the program like Bo Davis, Tosh Lupoi, and others who, when we express interest in hiring them, we are informed by Hubbs or someone that they can't coach in the SEC right now. But nothing ever happens to bama. They would never investigate themselves the way that we currently are nor would anything serious happen to them, especially under Saban. Even when their players get arrested, there are no consequences down there from Saban or even from the local law enforcement. Nothing happens to them at Alabama.

They are not playing by the same rules as we are. That is an undeniable fact. And then, to top it all off, they have the best coach in history down there so they are developing every player that they buy to come through that program. College football is broken, and the breakers of it are in Tuscaloosa and in Birmingham from the people who let this continue.

When you are winning and putting guys in the league on the regular, you don’t really need to cheat to get the top shelf guys anymore. At least not as much.

Your choices are:

Pruitt stays

or

Steele is your new head coach

What are you picking?

And this is highly likely the scenario

Name Steele interim HC for 2021, get your ducks in a row, and spend the next 9 to 10 months recruiting a new coach.

Basically what we should have done 11 years ago to the day.

That’s the assumption yes

I was listening to the interview. Brice said that the leak was not an accident, and it definitely came from Pruitt. He also said that Pruitt has not been interviewed yet regarding the investigation. And that Fulmer sat in on interviews with OL coach candidates. The general vibe with both the Midday 180 and Blane and Mickey is that Pruitt will be the coach, at least to start the 2021 season. FWIW

Pruitt..... I don’t really hold the covid season against him and was ok with him at the end of year two..... I still have a lot of questions about him as a coach though.

Show me another team that underperformed as badly as UT did that recruits and spends at UTs level?

Or maybe the Georgia State game wasn't a fluke?

LONG time lurker, as much as I hate to add to the rumor mongering here is something from Tiger Droppings that may be of interest. No idea if true, Marrone + Steele + Lebby??

Now we're talking @HankHill would take this. Marrone as the HC CEO, great DC in Steele, innovative OC in Lebby. We can do a lot with that imo. May be just what we need.

LOL. They're cheating bro. Guys aren't choosing bama over GA and hundreds of thousands of dollars because of championships.

I think it's Marrone. AP said yesterday that hiring Steele is a snag for Chadwell. I believe if Pruitt is about to be fired that they'll announce Marrone, and possibly on the same day. Steele as DC.

I think you are right, and I think I will be a major pain in the ass, bitching loudly till the boring loser is fired. It is a suckass garbage dump hire, and the idea of it being dumped on us makes me want to punch Phil in his fat stupid face, and I will want him fired and cut off from any influence over the UT football program until time ends.🤬

If he doesn't hire Bor-rone then disregard this whole comment..😏
