I was under the impression that UGA's current QB, Jake Fromm, flipped from us when Smart took the UGA job. Anyway, do not underestimate the connection of a recruit to a coach.According to many sources, Smart and Saban had an agreement in place - Smart was not to try and flip any recruits in that cycle, but future cycles were 100% up for grabs. The result - not a single Alabama commit flipped to GA during that recruiting cycle. I have no idea if Saban has a similar agreement in place with Pruitt, but he could if he wanted to. Saban did not have to release Pruitt to take the TN job until after the playoff.
