Butch Jones to Arkansas State

[malibuvol]

I’ll be pulling for him. I never understood the disdain for the guy. His overall record as a HC is commendable. He’ll do well in the Sunbelt.

Then you had you AH meter turned off for the last 5 years...LOL

 

[LordBolton]

We get Lane next year. Lets get Butch too. He’ll find out where Dooley is and get his team on the schedule

I don't think we're going to want Lane next year...Ole Miss may score 70 a game by that time.

If Butch had kept the OC and DC that he brought with him from Cincinnati he might still be the coach. Never recovered from losing Jancek.

Actually, that staff was on the same page, and worked together well.

 

[nickp91]

How did Butch Jones get another head coaching gig?!

 

[LargeOrange1]

He waited for his buyout to be paid virtually in full lmao.

Just another reason to despise him more.

 

[Vfl2407]

Jonesboro will become Jonestown.
They will all drink the koolaid and be Champions in Death.

 

[ButchPlz]

Actually a good fit for him.

 

[Waterudoin]

Can we please add Arkansas State to the schedule next year? Aren’t we looking for a 4th OOC game?

You looking for a loss?

 

[ATLVols]

Butch was built for small schools and mid-majors. They love gimmicky stuff like cliches and have low expectations.

 

[1972 Grad]

Butch gave us our only two 9 win seasons in the last 13 seasons. That encompasses 5 different coaches, and Butch was the only one to get her done.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

You sure about that?

Yes. We would handle them easily

 

[volfanhill]

Yes. We would handle them easily

Like GA state a year ago easy?

 

[RiverVol]

Purposely staying an intern to collect almost the entire (very long) buyout is not something any school will forget. He would have to coach like Saban to advance out of the lower tier FBS.

I hope Coastal Carolina and the Rajin' Cajuns run them into the ground.

What's sad... is that they will likely be better coached than the Vols were this year. ... at the very least in the 2nd half.

 

[UT Challenger]

He destroyed this football team and then milked the school for every last cent. Eff this dude. He’s a real pos.

He did and Nick the ###hole Saban helped him do it by giving him a made up job for 3 years

 

[1972 Grad]

He destroyed this football team and then milked the school for every last cent. Eff this dude. He’s a real pos.

And gave us our only two 9 win seasons in the last 13. In the last 13 seasons, 5 Tennessee head coaches tried to win 9 , and only Butch got her done. Brick by brick.

 

[VolsRule]

Butch is still getting millions from UT — he’ll get another few million per year from ark state — - he’s richer than ever!

 

[peaygolf]

Haha

 

[The Original Fade]

I bet Butch does pretty well there and sets himself up for another power 5 gig. I say this because I can’t imagine being around the Bama program for a couple of years and not learning a thing or two.

 

[The Original Fade]

How did Butch Jones get another head coaching gig?!

By winning 9 games twice at UT?

 

[OrangeSlices]

Yet, wait, brick by brick. Not sure we need to schedule A State. I can remember Butch's first year, some were so afraid he might go to Florida. Brick by Brick. Fear the Red Wolf.

 

[Special Ed]

I wouldn’t. Pruitt would find a way to lose

We should schedule them in basketball instead and smoke a cigar after the victory

 

[Jxn Vol]

I hope he fails

 

[CA_Vol]

I hope he fails miserably...

 

[jerrync]

Butch Jones named Arkansas State football coach. So I guess he is finally off TN payroll!

 

[wmcovol]

Move this to ncaa board. Jones is no longer UT football.
