Today’s press conference

[VolPack22]

Firmly believe you could cut the top of Butch's head off and you'd see gears...wheels and computer chips. He's a robot.

No there's one of those monkeys clapping cymbals hopping around in his head.

 

[Jake]

He looked like he was ready to break down and have a good cry

He looked to be calm and resolved to me.

Jones: I thought we did everything we could to win the football game except for one thing: Score TDs in the red zone


:lolabove::lolabove::lolabove::lolabove::lolabove:

Yeah, coach, scoring TDs is kind of an important part of the game.

 

[photovol]

Butch Jones : we need everything?

 

[SmokeyLives]

He showed zero passion. He made no mention of the rivalry with Bama and this being the 100th mtg. He had nothing motivational to say. He was tossed nothing but softballs. It was like he was following a script as a robot.

 

[TennTom]

This game will come down to details, specifically our toe technique. How do we position our toes at the line of scrimmage prior to the snap? Are our toes in alignment with the defenders eyes? Where are our toes in relation to the sideline?

Jaytrain, you need to post more like you used to. Volnation is better when you're here.

I really didn't think anything of that comment... think you guys are making a mountain out a mole hill. Butch is simply saying that our inability to score in the redzone cost us the game, and it did. Not sure what the fuss is about.

The D lineman have always had their toes one yard away from the ball and Db's will line up 2 yards behind the 1st down marker.

Exactly. It was a captain obvious moment

 

[bpalmer28]

Yeah, coach, scoring TDs is kind of an important part of the game.

Would you have rather him dance around the fact that our inability to punch it in cost us the game? Redzone offense is the biggest problem on this team. He's simply acknowledging that.

 

[VolFan4Life87]

Individual Individual blah blah blah

Situational, complimentary football. Lots of individuals

 

[robbymoore94]

Butch is having an orange dog kind of day.

 

[VolFan4Life87]

Seems a good time to boycott all things UT even VolNation.

Ironic post considering your screen name

 

[MWAVolfan]

Ed Orgeron?

Nah. One of those words wasn't "gumbo".

 

[VolFan4Life87]

He looked to be calm and resolved to me.

He’s resilient

Or Brent Schaeffer, football, or white boy.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

Did anyone have the gonads to ask him if he's had discussions about his future at UTK, or something to that effect?

 

[MWAVolfan]

If you're going to be an idiot, at least be a lovable idiot. That's the difference between Orgeron and Jones.

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

need to minimize the eye violations, maximize the momentum plays.

wth?

 

[MWAVolfan]

Did anyone have the gonads to ask him if he's had discussions about his future at UTK, or something to that effect?

Yes. He replied something like "many individuals working together to make my bank account as resilient and complimentary as possible".

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

He looked like he was ready to break down and have a good cry

..then he remembered it might get his paycheck wet.

He didn't recruit a blocking tight end and that is a big part of the redzone offense, according to coachdavemathews.
