KNOXVILLE – Tennessee has an open date in Week 6 of its league-only SEC 2020 campaign.
This is the second week of practices for Jeremy Pruitt overseeing Tennessee’s defensive line unit. The third-year Tennessee head coach relieved Jimmy Brumbaugh of his duties overseeing the defensive line following a Week 4 loss to Kentucky.
On Wednesday, sophomore linebacker Quavaris Crouch discussed Pruitt coaching the defensive line.
“If you look back at it, he coached linebackers, he’s coached everything — it has definitely been a big difference,” Crouch said of Pruitt coaching the defensive line. “I feel like he’s getting a lot out of the defensive linemen and I’m thankful for him being there.
“I play inside linebacker, so I have to play behind them. I’m grateful for Coach Pruitt being there and proud of my d-linemen working hard this week for us to get better.”
