[alaVOL]

Welcome to Big Orange country and just win baby.

 

[PureVol]

Has a winning record...sounded good in the presser....I'm in until he gives me a reason not to be

 

[Dudleys87]

Would have loved for him to say I look forward to kicking Nick and Les ass for years to come...

[VOLsome]

Butch is gonna do well! loved that he expects championships and not 8 win seasons

 

[ttocswob]

and UT still can't spell "official."

 

[terrypedigo]

:rock:Lets give the man a chance, if he can recruit we will win, he can coach, I like the fire in him.

[GoVolstn]

Go vols!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[1967vol]

Welcome Coach Jones. Glad you wanted to coach at UT. Don't let the bastar*s get you down, and I don't think you will.

 

[northknoxvol]

Butch won me over at the presser! GO VOLS!!!!

It wasn't that funny. I'm not upset anymore either. I changed my mind.

 

[StoVol]

Vols Butch!

 

[SobeVol]

You got me Coach Jones!!
Lets see what you got!
Go Vols!

 

[AshG]

First page. Let's see what happens.

 

[Ericvol2096]

I'm pumped, great hire.

 

[10NCVol88]

Cant spell BUTCH without UT. Lets go Vols!!!

 

[wtnvol]

Not to start any negativity...I was all Gruden for coach but the brief letdown has passed...More than anything I wanted someone who can win and unite and excite these boys and fans....I want to say welcome to Coach Jones and let's get this started...GBO

 

[sshelby]

I was concerned until I listened in on the press conference. Now I feel 100X better. Go Vols!

 

[CMcEver]

The only thing I'm concerned with, is he going to run any kind of Option? I hope not.

 

[mfrantom]

I didn't want Butch at all. I was really angry when the news broke. However, he is our coach now. I will back him up 100% until he gives us a reason not to. Having said that, Dave Hart fumbled this search from the start. Dave Hart should hand in his resignation letter today. I'll support this team until the day I die, I'll support Jones unless he proves to be taking UT backwards even more, but I will NOT support Dave Hart. Ever.

Ups from Schad, Mortensen, Dilfer, SVP.

Also from Mort just now

Chris Mortensen ‏@mortreport

Caught flak for saying Bill O'Brien was right man for Penn St. Now I'll say this: Tennessee Vols got lucky with Butch Jones #lovethehire

Nick Saban was only 5 games over .500, 0-3 in bowl games at Mich St when LSU hired. Give a Butch Jones the Vols/SEC resources, watch out.

Pete Carroll was USC's 4th choice. Fans were upset. Not when they were hoisting trophies.

 

[Orangesmokey]

I have to say CBJ wasn't even on my list but I was impressed with his press conference. Let's hope that can translate to the field. I got the feeling this guy is going to command respect from his team.
