The case for not keeping Jeremy Pruitt has played out on the field during Tennessee's five-game losing streak. The Vols (2-5) have regressed in Pruitt's third season as UT's coach.

He has a 15-17 career record. Tennessee's losing streak is its longest since the Vols started the 1988 season 0-6. Tennessee has showed no signs of developing a quarterback under Pruitt's watch.

But there also are reasons to stick with Pruitt in 2021.
