What exactly does Butch Jones get?

Lol. You're taking this thread wayy too seriously. Chill.


Sounds like a counterpoint being expressed...but the "Butch hasn't proven anything on the field" joke series IS FRESH AND HIP..so go ahead and hit it and then pour a 40 for the lame o's who don't get it

Edit...probably important to point out sarcasm

Newsflash: just being realistic. Perhaps you feel like he deserves an extension because of his work on Twitter.

Some of you act like I'm wanting him to fail. It's getting ridiculous. I'm simply not going to lavish praise on him until he warrants it. So far I like what I see... but only so far. This may be an improved team with as bad or worse a record.

Yet I'm wanting the site to shut down for it? Hope you don't pull something reaching that hard.
Please show me where I've said he deserves anything. I'm just sick and damn tired of people crapping on everyone who tries to point out something positive that the man does. You want results? So does everyone else. Whether you like it or not we're not going to have any results to talk about until Sept. In the meantime we can discuss recruiting, or press conferences, or who is going to start, or whatever. All we have to go on RIGHT NOW is what he has done UP TO THIS POINT.

Fade understands better than some. CBJ is doing all the right things and has things on track, but the number of posters claiming to have chills over twitpics and practice videos is pretty far over the top. Let's win a few games before we get that feeling running down our leg.
While we're at it lets not talk about football or get excited about the fall. Lets not be optimistic about the future. Because its wrong to prognosticate about the things we enjoy in life.

If you're going to accuse me of something, get it right. I've never "crapped" on anyone for being excited. I pointed out the other posters who accused myself and others of being lame, not real fans etc. because we either a) had the wait and see approach or b) had serious doubts about the man. I have no problems discussing anything until then. I'm giving my opinion; I really could care less what you think about it. You can disagree with me until then. But don't act like I'm putting anyone down, I'm pointing out what's been said and responding to it. I will continue to do so.

For the record, I hope he proves everyone's doubts wrong.
 
These all answer the question what does bUTch get?

Talent, the SEC, not being Dooley, Jalen Hurd, home late, little sleep, love from the fans, our Maxims, shirts printed with said Maxims on it, recruits to recruit for our university, twitter, TKJ, coffee from a thermos that he brought from home because that just seems manlier than buying coffee from Starbucks (completely made that up, but I want to believe it), chest bumps at UT basketball games, how to coach up players, how to not make excuses, how to build a house (brick by brick), former players to love him, a brand new facility that makes even Satan jealous, the keys to a proud Tennessee football program, Vic Wharton, and lastly to coach our Tennessee Volunteers. Go Vols and Go Coach Jones.

Lets not crown him king just yet. He has proven that he can recruit, and seems to be a great motorvator, but now we still have to see how his offence and defense preform in the SEC.
Let's remember a Dooley led Vols team recently beat a cbj led team with his recruits. I'm all for cbj and I think he is making good choices. Let's wait and see if he knows when to call time-out, everybody on me! Let's see if he knows how to out coach Saban's defensive coordinators 3rd adjustment! Let's see if he can outpoint the Gators then hold the lead and contain them until the final tick of the clock! We want and need a caoch who ''gets'' it...that being a coach who has the energy, wit, guts, and class to be an SEC coach.

this argument again :ermm:

Let's not get upset, I'm just sayin as a worst case scenario this is a possibility. Most Likely the Coach BJ will be prepped to success because I believe in his system, and because I believe he's coaching fundamentals and basics.
 
Dude is a poor college kid willing to take a chance on being sodomized just to get to the O&W game.

True fan? No doubt.

Owner of a PM jersey? Probably not.
 
He knows what it means to be a Tennessee Volunteer.

Pride
Integrity
Passion
Willingness to give your all
Championship attitude
No quit

He embodies all of these and it shows.

I would think just about any coach who comes in and embraces Tennessee traditions "gets it." There is a whole nother debate about whether or not that will translate to wins. The main thing is it certainly can't hurt.

Well said. This argument comes down to human nature IMO. Positive you vs negative him. Just the way it is.
 
I just got off the phone with a friend who's an Auburn fan who spent 25 minutes telling me why all the stuff coming out isn't accurate and their championship was real and valid. So that was my frame of reference.

No offense, but what else is an auburn fan going to say? That they are in fact dirty and all the bad press they have been getting is deserved?
 
If Jones gets "it" in year 3, and provides us wins in October, then I'm fully on board.

That being said, his approach to mending the program and fanbase is definitely one I am on board with, and hope it continues going forward.
