Jeremy Pruitt has odd way of wearing mask on sidelines

Originally posted on Larry Brown Sports  |  By Larry Brown  |  Last updated 10/10/20

Jeremy Pruitt took his mask-wearing technique to a whole new level on Saturday.

The Tennessee Volunteers head coach received attention for the way he was wearing his face covering. He had an orange and white checkerboard gaiter-type thing. But Pruitt had it wrapped around his head and not covering his mouth and nose, which is the intended practical use for a mask.

Pruitt’s Vols actually led Georgia 21-17 at the half. But Georgia turned it up in the second half and won 44-21.

If college football were the NFL, Pruitt almost certainly would be fined. But it’s not, so he won’t get anything except some jokes on social media.

We know another coach who could probably relate to Pruitt’s mask style.
