Not that is matters but, strong safety and I returned kicks in HS and College. You?

And no it don't matter, its my opinion as a FAN.
I like your attitude. Some of our fans have been down so long that they can't feel good about anything without persistent doubt. But I have a more optomistic outlook for the reason that Jones has some kind of success to show for his work. You could almost say we gambled on Dooley's bloodline because he had no actual record of success to gage him on. It's really kind of bizarre that a major college's AD would have climbed out on such a limb. And it was really bizarre that he would take a major college with him out on that limb. Of course, it did cost him his job eventually.

Once bitten, twice shy. This reminds me of when Dooley was hired. I'll wait till I see how he recruits and the team performs before I make a decision. Nothing wrong with those that want to give him the benefit of the doubt. Nothing wrong with being a little skeptical either.

^^^ I pretty much agree with this. I don't doubt CBJ, everything sounds good so far, but ... I pretty much always think that and I have certainly been wrong before. Bottomline: he's our coach ... make it happen cap'n.

And where did all my "likes" go? Do we only get a limited number for a while?

Butch Jones is the real deal! This guy lives, breath's, eats football! If one didn't know better, one would think he has been a Vol since his birth. This guy has bought in like no one I have ever seen! His attitude is contagious!

I was a little skeptical at first, but the more I see the better I feel. As a matter of fact this is the best I have felt about UT Football in a very long time.

This just feels different and I mean that in a good way.
I'm Tellin' Ya...this thread is full of FAIL! It's as bad as the "Sal Sunseri is a Bada$$" thread.

We feel like a football school again. It hasn't felt that way for the last three years.

Instead of posting some ignorant video (I will give you its funny) why don't you explain why you think its a "fail"? If your gonna make a statement then back it up with something tangible.

Support the Vols, but we need to see how NSD goes and the product he puts on the field before all the worship starts.

The real evidence of a good coach is one who can take average talent and beat excellent talent. Lets face facts, lots of coaches could take Alabama's talent and win.

That talent didn't fall out of the sky. Nick Saban won and attracted that talent and continues to win. You can't discredit what he has done over there from a situation that was similar to our very own.

I'm going to hold out on my judgement until the UGA game but I will say I have liked his press conferences so far and his interviews. It will be nice to see how the players react once spring practices get underway and to see if he keeps bringing in former players but so far I'm enjoying him. In the end though it all comes down to winning ball games!

I could convince myself either way at this point. But its a lot more fun to pay attention to the positive stuff.

Yeah, i think i can safely say i enjoyed the fired up bUTch jones video much more than the other......failed video. I dont ever remember seeing anything even close when Dooley was hfc. Our HFC has the intensity and fire to give UT the edge in ballgames. Itll help UT turn the corner and get its first signature win in years. Im glad we have a motivator who is hungry to make it big time here in Knoxville. Its worked for him everywhere he has been, so WHY NOT HERE! Go Big Orange!

I hope I am wrong. But I think he won't make it. Dooley couldn't coach or motivate to save his life. But he got SEC players there. Don't matter how good of a coach you are in this league you need players. I don't like turning to tos and seeing guys that look like Scotty. Mc Creery getting offered to play at Tennessee.

I was watching his team meeting and I swear he took the shape of a unicorn! I couldn't even make eye contact with him! His voice was a combination of Fergie and Jesus!
