Phil Fulmer supports Jeremy Pruitt for ‘calling out’ fans after spring game

Tennessee athletic director Phillip Fulmer is not upset about Jeremy Pruitt calling out Volunteer fans following his first spring game as head coach. In fact, the Vols AD is fine with his coach doing so.

He said as much when he joined the regionally syndicated ‘Chuck Oliver Show’ on Wednesday.

“I certainly feel his passion,” Fulmer said. “That’s what we hired. I think he understands, and everybody should understand, that to get this turned back where we need it to be turned to, we need everybody.

“He knows that. He can’t do this by himself. It’s going to take us all to get back to where we want to be.
