Major Majors endorsement of Butch Jones today, also perhaps a little jab at Coach Fulmer's last few years.

http://www.tennessean.com/article/2...s-Butch-Jones-Vols-best-coach-10-yearshttp://

“I guarantee you it will be a better-coached football team than what’s been up there in eight or 10 years; probably 10 years at least,” Majors said. “Butch Jones is going to get it done; you mark this down on August the 12th. John Majors doesn’t know all, but John Majors can tell you who can coach and who cannot coach and Butch Jones can coach.”

He also went on to say . . .

“If you have a good administration in place and they know you’re doing a good job, which we were when I was at Tennessee ... we’d still be winning championships there if I was the head coach.”

You have to love the old guy's toughness. This guy was jobbed out of the Heisman Trophy, got fired while recuperating from a heart attack, but has never been anything less than all Vol. It will be a sad day when rejoins General Neyland's team again. Hopefully, not for a long while.

So from 1992-1993 to roughly 10 years ago, UT was a well coached team? In that case, it would be a compliment to CPF. This whole dynamic between Majors and Fulmer is comical and needs to go away for the good of Volnation.

I believe he's just taking a traditional Tennessee remedy for his rheumatism.

When Kiffin was hired Johnny said he was a good hire. When Dooley was hired Johnny said he knew how to coach and would get the job done. Now CBJ so hopefully Johnny will be 1 for 3 (excluding Fulmer completely).

Johnny Majors has earned the right to say whatever the hell he wants to say about Tennessee football. Just nod y'alls head and move on.

There are two Fulmers. The one we loved died in 2002.
