Official "eat crow" because Butch was hired here thread

My biggest concern about Jones has always been that his recruiting classes at Cincinnati were bad even by Big East standards. Kelly and Hurd are great, but this is something I'm going to worry about until he beats out other SEC teams for kids out of Georgia and Florida. I'm optimistic about the way things are going too, believe me, but I just think an "I'm eating crow about Butch!" thread already is ridiculously silly.

Luckily, it doesn't matter what you think.
 
Goat said that he thought coach Jones could not recruit at the level UT needs. He then went on to say this past week has proved em wrong.

Hard to talk sense in to a belligerent, self indulged jackass.

At least you could figure it out.
 
Dude for the 1000th time, BOTH of those young men said they would NOT have been attending the University of Tennessee had Dooley still been the coach. STRAIGHT from their mouths. Not conjecture or supposition from fans. THEY SAID IT. LOL. I'm sure UT is where Hurd's heart has always been but he wouldn't have followed his heart had DD stayed.

Do you deny that both of these recruits stated that they wouldn't have came to UT if Dooley was still the coach??

DUDE......how many times in recruiting have you heard a player say one thing and do the other???? Happens all the time.

Doing more than Dooley doesn't make it a good hire.


Yeah this staff is garbage...run them out and get somebody who knows what they're doing...after this weekend though because there seems to be a bucketload of talented prospects that showed up for unexplained reasons#mysterywrappedinariddle

Do you think "better than Dooley" says a lot?

So you are saying that recruits always do what they say they are going to do?

What color is the sky in the world that you live in?

Ill start off. I was out of town, and almost gave up on us ever having a capable coach when I read the news of Jones being hired. I of course did some research, and as always (Dooley being the lone exception( convinced myself he could get the job done. My lone worry was recruiting. I knew recruiting to UT, was different that Cincy, and that if he was good, we would see the results. Well, he has blown past my best expectations in a little over three months. The man has proven he can coach, and now he is showing everyone he can recruit. Russia got a falling star, UT may have gotten one too. But only people getting hurt here are opposing coaches feelings, knowing they can no longer cherry pick this states top talent. If this week is any inclination of what's to come, consider me giddy.

I was wrong about Butch. Any others?


I have more worries than recruiting.... Dooley could NOT coach, yet Dooley coached a team that beat CBJ...... That screams at me everytime I try to get on board.

I am not saying that CBJ hasn't done a good job so far, I am impressed with the things he has said, and done so far, and recruiting is going gang busters this year...SO FAR...

The season has not even started yet and you are proclaiming he can coach???? Let this year play out and we will all know, but a couple of good words and a couple (4 or 5) good recruits does not make CBJ a success

WE ARE STILL IN THE SEC, so I will wait and see

Sorry..........NO Crow here yet :hi:

Dooley beat CBJ with a vastly superior squad. That's the difference here. Cincy was overmatched at every position.

Seeing we have such a VASTLY SUPERIOR squad left to us from Dooley, is it your belief that we should compete in the SEC this year??? not to be an arse, just an honest question??

By the way.... CBJ IMHO will have the same issues in the SEC this year, does that side then say we will not win any SEC games this year because of talent??? again, just a question?
