After bringing a ton of momentum into 2020 and adding to it on the recruiting trail during the spring, Jeremy Pruitt’s program has crashed and burned. Tennessee started 2-0 and took a lead into halftime against Georgia, and then everything fell apart.
The Volunteers have dropped five straight games and haven’t even looked competitive against teams that matter in year three under Pruitt.
We didn’t expect to be here. Pruitt’s no-nonsense style seemed to be exactly what this program needed after Butch Jones. His down to earth, country-boy tone fit well with the fanbase and recruits across the southeast.
