It’s like old times right now in the Tennessee football offices. Phillip Fulmer has taken over the AD position after John Currie’s debacle of a coaching search. With Fulmer’s office just down the hall from Jeremy Pruitt, the two are now working together to scrape together a recruiting class.
In an interview with Volquest, Fulmer spoke on why he chose Pruitt to lead the football program.
“The intensity. He’s an unbelievably organized guy,” Fulmer said. “The interview went so well, we connected, he believes in the things that I know are important in this conference — being physical at the line of scrimmage, playing great defense, not turning the ball over — we just really connected.
