Butch is safe, because everyone that is NOT a moron can see the positive progression he has made since his arrival. The only problem here is, some fans, have their lives so wrapped around this team that it has choked out any remembrance of what this team has been through before CBJ. Fulmer, Kiffen and Dooley.......WOW! and some of you want to go back to that? do you really think any other coach wants to come to UT with the vile and venomous crap you type of these blogs.......who in their right minds would want to coach for a bunch of ungrateful and entitlement laden fans? What happen if Coach Jones is fired and they hire another......how long do we give him to bring us to the level of Bama? 2, 3 or 4 years. I am amazed at the level of detachment some of you have of reality, its like you think we hire some guy and the next year we are competing for a NC. It didn't happen at USC, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Arkansas, Norte Dame, Florida State, Oregon etc. etc. What makes you think UT can make a turn around like Bama with Saban with another new coach? Wow!

Wow man, that's a lot of straw man arguments in one poorly structured paragraph to essentially say 'Butch is better than Dooley!'
The 'Better-than-Dooley' argument doesn't work in year 5; contrary to your desires Dooley is not the measuring stick for coaching success at the University of Tennessee.
I'm not here to start another argument thread. Just bringing information from outside sources. Interesting that Bielema is not rated higher IMO.

Perhaps we can clarify things a bit here.
All we really want in our head coach is:
a) Recruit top scholar/athletes and outstanding citizens, garnering a top 10 class each year, and
b) Win a minimum of 9 games each year, and
c) Compete for the conference championship annually, winning it more times than not, and
d) Keep the team performing at a level where we (and they) can hold our heads up proudly every week, and
e) Beat Alabama, Florida, and Georgia with consistency, and
f) Face any other team in the country with the confident expectation of winning, and
g) Occasionally go undefeated, untied and unscored upon through a season or two.
Is that so much to ask for?

Tell us how you really feel....
I have tried to give Jones some slack, but its year 5. If there is truly no improvement from the last two years, it may be time to look elsewhere.
How can a guy like Fuente go to VT and in his first year go to the ACC championship, and second year be ranked in the top 15 with a great shot at repeating, do it with lower ranked recruiting classes? It's coaching and player development. It doesn't take 7 years to build a program that hasn't had a recruiting class outside the top 25 in that timeframe.
