During Satuday's, game against the Hurricanes To'oto'o put on a show as he posted the second most tackles on the team with seven. If someone was to describe his performance as one of a seasoned veteran for Alabama, there's a good reason why. To'oto'o played under former Crimson Tide defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt who helped shape him into the player he is today.
To'oto'o spent two years with Tennessee where he appeared in a total of 22 games under Pruitt and recorded a total of 74 solo tackles, 12.5 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, one interception and one defensive touchdown.
"I give a lot of props to coach Pruitt," To'oto'o said. "He taught me a lot of the game. Taught me a lot about the system. Similar systems, you know, similar defense, and being able to learn it from him and then come here and apply the teaching that he taught me and kind of take it on from there with coach Saban and coach Golding really helped me and my transition here. Coach Pruitt helped me a lot."
