What insight suggests he might fail? Hmm, lemme think....

How about the fact that he was the 7th or 8th choice, or the fact that UT was battling Colofreakingrado for his services, or even better still, Derek Dooley pummeled him as HC.

This is an awful hire, slightly better than Dooley.

You are so wrong it is funny. Dooley was a poor coach on so many levels that it was laughable. He couldn't win. His players disliked him. His staff choices were beyond stupid. His disparaging his players in public was embarrassing. His remarks like "watering bamboo" put him with Les Miles in the bizarro category. The team scored 41 points on Georgia, scored on most of the teams they played. If Dooley knew anything about football he would have never changed defenses and DC.
Butch Jones is the opposite of all of this. Tells me he has a solid chance.
