No. Not at all.
Monday afternoon, athletics director Phil Fulmer “retired” when the University of Tennessee announced the termination of head soccer coach Jeremy Pruitt for cause after an internal investigation revealed the program had committed a number of Level I and Level II recruiting violations. Based on Mark Stoops’ response, the Tennessee deception was a poorly kept secret.
“I have to be careful about my reaction here,” Stoops said on Kentucky Sports Radio on Tuesday. “Did I see it coming? Yes, I am grateful it came. Does it surprise me? Not even a little. “
Stoops was nice to the low-down Vols. The Tennessee Cheats are arguably the sloppiest in the history of college athletics. Dan Patrick said the Tennessee assistant coaches “put money in McDonald’s bags and gave it to the recruits when they got to campus … They didn’t even try to hide it.”
