Scrapper?

Yes. Hands on up and down the sideline. Not sitting back relying in asst coaches

We need a defense first mentality IMO.

Let's give Butch a warm welcome.

He is a proven winner. (not in the SEC). But we will take it. Hit the recruiting trail hard sir. I remember when Josh Pastner took over, the shambles Cal had left Memphis BBall in, he slept in his office and recruited non stop. I hope Butch brings that same type of tenacity to Rocky Top! :salute:

Hopefully Jones is better than Pastner....bad example.

We don't need defense in the SEC. We did just fine this year.

Perfect..

I think Butch is a better hire than Dooley was. He had one bad year in his first year of coaching in 2010. His last two years showed that he learned from his mistakes and started winning games, which is more than our previous coach ever did. I'm willing to give him a shot.
