Jeremy Pruitt Violations as Tennessee HC Outlined in NCAA Notice of Allegations

Tennessee's football program has been hit with 18 NCAA infractions stemming from rules violations under former head coach Jeremy Pruitt.

Per an official notice of allegations obtained by Sports Illustrated's Ross Dellenger, the NCAA contends Pruitt and his coaching staff gave players cash and gifts over the course of his tenure with the program from 2018 to 2020.

Casey Pruitt, Jeremy's wife, is said to have paid more than $15,000 in rent and car payments on behalf of one Vols player and the player's mother for more than 2.5 years.

All 18 violations facing the program are Level I, which is considered the most serious on the NCAA infractions structure.
