Butch Jones Fired

[broncosmitty]

Yes.

surprised they didn't wait until the end of the season.

This will help Jones' legacy.

He won't go to a yankee school.

247 still has him near 50-50 between Tennessee and UGA.

Why? He has Notre Dame on his list.

 

[Sgt Brutus]

It will be interesting to see how many recruits they lose

 

[Wild Turkey]

Butch a Jones did such a bad job at Tenn that he might not be a head coach again. It really was that bad.

Odds are, he stays home and goes to Tennessee. Georgia and Clemson are the next two most likely landing spots.

Shhhssshhhhh....don’t tell that to ESPN. tSEC is their highest earning trick as a whole, so the 24/7 fluffing about how awesome the conf is from top to bottom will continue. Now repeat after me, “quality loss, quality loss, quality loss”.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

this is an injustice of the most egregious nature

a la Derrick Dooley

Oh, Brady Hoke is taking over?

NVM...

 

[Volbound1700]

Someone folks are mentioning is Mullen

I'm not sure Tennessee wants that. Mullen would definitely have the program in better shape but as proven last night and in prior games Mullen is not a big game coach, Tennessee will have some 10 win seasons under him but they won't beat Bama

I would take that right now. I would even take Dan Mullen over Jon Gruden.

You'll just have to be prepared for once you hit that ceiling you'll go no further, you might win the East if the division is down but you won't be making the playoff or beating Alabama

 

[Jekku]

How is it Jones was fired and Riley still has his job?

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

I thought for sure Riley was soon to follow, maybe he gets canned tomorrow?

I actually agree with you on this. Butch absolutely butchered the job at UT, to the point where the fans and admin didn't want him speaking in public. Trash cans, Champions of Life, and the other stupid things he has said, plus to that his pitiful excuse for a football team.

I hate Tennessee, but they big enough program that this spell that they've had since the firing of Fulmer, should make the boosters and school really go out and pick out a big name.

Butch was a disgrace, and it took UT too long to dump his sorry ass.

It's like his coaching tenure was an episode of the "Office". Seriously if you made the Butch Jones movie of the week who better to play him than Steve Carnell. His coaching "tricks" were just like the stupid management tricks you saw on that show.

Gruden ain't coming...he doesn't need that shit and he definitely doesn't need Nick Saban up his ass.

 

[DJ]

This doesn't surprise me.

Love that Butch is trying to burn down the castle on his way out the door . . .
