If you didn’t know by now, this message should make it quite clear to Vol fans that Tennessee has hired a true players’ coach. Not only is Jeremy Pruitt known as one of the nation’s most elite recruiters and defensive minds but his players genuinely seem to love the man behind all the football acumen.

The latest example comes from Alabama linebacker Mack Wilson who posed with Pruitt and his wife Casey following Alabama’s national championship win Monday night. A five-star prospect in the 2016 recruiting cycle, Wilson’s lead recruiter to Alabama? You guessed it, Jeremy Pruitt.

“Man I love y’all so much.. thank you guys for everything what better way to send my dude off,” Wilson wrote under the picture he posted on Twitter.

Wilson also tagged the post with hashtag “RollVol” for good measure.

It will be interesting to see how the Pruitt era plays out at Tennessee, but so far, he appears to be a significant upgrade over the last Nick Saban disciple the Vols hired to run the program.
