The NCAA has fined Tennessee $8 million and given former Volunteers coach Jeremy Pruitt a six-year show-cause penalty for what it said were “hundreds” of NCAA violations that occurred under his watch.
The NCAA decision was released Friday and came after the governing body and school had reached an agreement regarding the case. Tennessee fired Pruitt after the 2020 season following its own investigation into violations within the program. That investigation led Tennessee to say it fired Pruitt with cause and contend that it didn’t owe the coach his $13 million buyout.
Pruitt was Tennessee’s coach from 2018-2020 and had a record of 16-19 with the school. Tennessee’s only bowl appearance in his tenure came in the Gator Bowl after the 2019 season.Your browser does not support HTML5 audio.
