Also...has anyone heard about Butch donating his $100,000 bowl bonus to Gatlinburg? Is this true?

Twitter rumor, not from CBJ. Supposed Vol fan complaining about coaching bonus and said he should donate it because he did not earn it. It grew from there.

James Franklin is proof that what Butch has supposedly "done" here can be done much quicker and with better results.

Butch would have done same thing last year had he made the right hire at OC and quit micromanaging. Franklin was in same positon heading into year 3 yet he decided that he needed to be open to someone coming in with new ideas on offense. He hit a home run. That is the difference

Agreed. We seem to have a common theme over the past 4 years.

Hurry up, Blackburn.

I half way think if people would stop liking the moaning "Vandy loss, Fahr Butch, woe is us" posts, some of that crap would cease.

But of course, people like it because it confirms their reason to be miserable, so they self-proliferate the misery.

Keep mourning if you want, but I'm excited about this Nebraska match up. A lot better than NW or Iowa in previous years

Why in the world is he even getting a bonus for a crappy bowl games. SEC title and playoff games should be only way to get a bonus.

Because thats how it is. Maybe you should ask the UT AD. You sound like one of those "fans" that either doesnt care we could be 3-0 in bowl games for the first time since the late 90's or worse, want us to lose the MCB.

It's like the clause Coach Fulmer got near the end of his tenure. I think it was something like if he got eight wins, he got an automatic raise and extension.

The guy that started that is absolutely disgusting and pathetic.

I keep thinking the garbage on Twitter will finally reach a tipping point with people and morons like that will cease to have an audience...so I'm continually disappointed.

Although I agree I like the potential for offensive fireworks in this game, the season has been deeply disappointing. So the move on and enjoy lecture may be a bit premature. The team was a Vandy loss from actually recovering the mojo with the fans enjoying a Sugar Bowl against Okie - a much bigger and important match-up. The Big 12 conference champ versus the #2 SEC team. That would have changed things.

It takes some people longer than others to grieve (see Hillary voters). Before attacks start, it would be the same for Trump voters if he had lost.
