What does Jones have to do for you?

We have to put our instate rival , and our southeastern neighbor back in their rightful places under the bottom of our shoe. Any other D-1 or sec opponents not in the top 10 need to be sure wins. Those that are top 10 need to be competitive games. Once we have that, I'll be content for a few years.

Soundly defeat the few teams we will be favored against this coming season.

Be competitive for 4 quarters against the rest.

Put a defense on the field that doesn't look lost, dolesn't take bad angles on every play, swarms to the ball, and knows how to tackle.

B*tch-slap that Vandy coach at midfield after b*tch-slapping the dores.

This sounds good. Especially the last one. James Franklin needs to know his place, lying on the ground, getting peed on by Smokey, at the feet of Butch Jones!

That is what this is all about really.
Is he giving us something to believe in?
Does he have the players believing?
Are our commitments buying in?

Yes!!! :clap:
Yes!!! :clap:
Yes!!! :clap:

Does he have to continue to build on this?

Yes!!! Without a doubt. :yu:

The truth is we want to believe he is leading us out of the dark years and returning us to, if not glory, at least to respectability. We have been down for so many years that we want to grab on to anything that appears to be giving us the ability to be proud of who we are without suffering for it.

That said I BELIEVE!!!!!
I BELIEVE THAT CBJ IS THE ONE.
I BELIEVE THAT OUR PLAYERS BELIEVE.
I BELIEVE THAT OUR ALUMNI BELIEVE.
I BELIEVE HE WILL BUILD A FENCE AROUND TN..
I BELIEVE BRICK BY BRICK, VOL BY VOL WE WILL RISE TO THE TOP!!!!!
I BELIEVE!!!!!



DO YOU!!!!!

What if UT is 7-5 in the regular season with wins over:

APSU
WKU
S. Alabama
Missouri
Auburn
Vandy
UK

Would you feel that "great" about the season? Most likely UT wouldn't have beaten anyone with a winning record.

Granted, an 8 win season is something UT hasn't seen in a while but there would be nothing impressive about that 8 win season.

I'd feel great about a 7-5 season and a trip to the Music City or Liberty Bowls

I am concerned with Oregon, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina & Bama. We need at least 3 out 5. For every one of the other 7, I expect we will win. The Big Five will determine our season.

Its going to be a long year for you pimp 3 out of 5, not asking much are you.:):)

Field a well-coached, competitive team that fights for four quarters. 6-7 regular season wins and a bowl game would be nice to see as well, but I won't give up him if he doesn't achieve that in year one. He doesn't have a lot to work with on offense.

Definitely expect to see a really solid recruiting class next year, followed by a solid record in year two.

I believe Butch will get it done and turn this thing around.

Should win at least 10 Games including the Bowl Game - If Vandy can win 9 Games there is No Excuse for Tennessee not to be at least one game better - No excuses & I am tired of accepting a losing mentality - If you do not expect Excellence then you will never achieve it - Downplaying our talent and expectations is a recipe to accept failure

Vandy played an easy as hell schedule for those 9 wins. Tennessee has a brutal schedule this season. With how tough it is 7-5 will be a damn good accomplishment by Butch and staff!

The day that expectations at Tennessee are below Vanderbilt is a sad statement for Tennessee Fans- Both Teams are in the same conference and there is a real problem if you are accepting two games worse than Vandy- Accepting Dooley's losing attitude got us where we are today - People achieve to expectations and I Expect 10 Wins Minimum.......Any coach at Tennessee should be fired immediately if they fail to go to a Bowl Game- Dooley would have been fired the day after the Kentucky Game - That would look like a very prudent move today - You get what you are willing to accept in life to a large degree - Tennessee Fans should not settle for less than 10 Wins
