John Parker Wilson says Jeremy Pruitt scares him more than Kirby Smart

Former Alabama quarterback John Parker Wilson is back in the headlines today. In a radio interview, Wilson told WJOX in Birmingham that new Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt scares him more than Georgia’s Kirby Smart. Both men come from the Nick Saban coaching tree, each spending time as Alabama’s defensive coordinator.

Here’s the full quote from Wilson.

He scares me more at Tennessee than Kirby does at Georgia. Georgia is going to be good, but down the road, Jeremy scares me more than Kirby at Georgia.

The way he connects with people is unlike anything I’ve ever seen.
