But vacating two years of wins.

The NCAA is a joke, they'll tell Tennessee and others they have to vacate wins but will let UNC with 20 years of academic fraud go scot-free.

That said, the Pruitt era was hilarious from an outsider. Every Vols fan wanted Gruden, the university hired Schiano. The fans revolted, then Sciano was "let go", then like 10 coaches said no way, then they settled for Pruitt. I think the AD got fired for this, and he was barely a year on the job.

And, IIRC after the firing, the university wrote a very scathing letter to him telling him he wasn't allowed back on campus.
