Written on Improbable 'dream job' for Butch Jones:

in response to Rock85:

To be honest I like Butch Jones, Blue coller hard working coach.And I welcome him to Tennessee and his family. However, I do have a problem with this hire and the Tn powers tobe.Going into this search,We were told by Hart TN is at a crossroads.Meaning to me we had to make a HOMERUN HIRE. To Unite the fan base and infuse ENERGY on Rocky Top. I Like Coach Jones But do not think he is a homerun hire.I HOPE he does well but OUR program can't survive on hope. Cheeks and Hart should be held ACCOUNTABLE. But Coach Jones and his family should not pay the price for the COWARD FEW, that control the University Athletics. And deflect any blame.So what we do know TN fans? For me I cant just turn off my love for Tennessee. But I will not send my lil donation,nor attend any sporting event.Also will be careful where I buy my GAS. Until Cheek and Hart are nolonger at TENNESSEE.

Where you buy your gas????? Well, you certainly will not bankrupt, probably one of the biggest contributors to the UNIVERSITY of TENNESSEE

Written on Improbable 'dream job' for Butch Jones:

Butch Jones wanted this job so badly he will give 110% to the University of Tennessee. For gosh sakes give the man a chance, first watch for the coaching assistants he chooses, second see what recruiting looks like.....thirdly at least wait for the first game of the season to see fan turnout, is the first game Austin Peay??

Written on John Adams: Vols might have found a 'yes' man :

Hart tell YOUR new coach to send your BEST BUDDIE Senserie back to BAMA.....Then you tell the powers that be you (hart) are going with him.....20 minutes to decide on a coach.......You shouldn't have told that DUMMIE.However, I wish nothing but the best for Coach Jones........It's you we don't want anymore........

Written on Butch Jones promises 'best staff in the country' :

Coach Jones.....make friends with the fans..Keep Jay Graham and go after Trooper Taylor...for recruiting

Written on Butch Jones, Derek Dooley will cost UT close to $17 million :

It makes me sick to see Hart standing there smiling..makes me think of the cat that just swallowed the canary. Ouote "I knew after 20 minutes Jones was the guy for the job." Dave Hart......He must have been in STUPIDVILLE the first 18 days.

Written on Players, recruits respond to hiring :

Someone start a petition for Trooper

Written on New UT coach Butch Jones in Knoxville:

Even Peyton tried to keep him away from TN.....

Written on Butch Jones introduced as new head coach:

in response to VFL_Troll_Patrol:

*Im always watching*

PS We now have coach Jones!! Next hire for assistant coach will be Radio... haha love that movie "Radio". Hey coach Jones!

Duh...............To keep him away from TN

Written on New UT coach Butch Jones in Knoxville:

Kind of impressed and anxious to see what Coach Jones can do. However, the newspaper guy that questioned why his team would clap when he told them he was leaving....wanted to make it sould like they were happy he wouldn't be their coach maybe true, but, I feel it was a stupid question

Written on New UT coach Butch Jones in Knoxville:

QUESTION....What other UT coach was given a 6 year contract and 18 million ...just curious

Written on New UT coach Butch Jones in Knoxville:

earlier today I saw two vehicles with UT tag on front turned upside down.....Jones is the coach accept it and give the man a chance...Absolutely nothing can be done ..18 million 6 years contract...Hopefully no payouts on this one...

Written on New UT coach Butch Jones in Knoxville:

Welcome to Tennessee, Coach Jones.......Looks like you're getting off the plane carrying a green money bag....Good for you...The orange tie is more becoming than the red one.....

Written on Tennessee to pay Jones $18.2 million over six years :

Big Bucks for a somewhat unknown...lots of confidence 6 year contract....I hope a lot of big orange fans living in close area will show up to show what being a VOL means...give him a warm welcome....maybe BOO Hart HA I guess the man deserves a chance so I'm trying..still don't like Hart and want him to leave..but, Jones ,we have no choice but to welcome him and hope he brings the football program back, not in a season but soon..lots of us have lost a little of our Big Orange Pride...but that too shall pass...GO BIG ORANGE......

Written on New UT coach Butch Jones in Knoxville:

Can he shows the Spirit on the sideline during a game that the Vandy coach does...never seen a coach so up-beat and involved with players coming off and going on the field...that's what it takes 100% involvement with the team...not just standing around...looking bored...Coach Jones watch the Vandy/Tn tape and see how a coach can get involved with his team on and off the field....if you can inspire the team everything else is moot. GOOD LUCK. Tennessee fans are tough....show us what ya got.....

Written on Cincinnati AD: Dave Hart was "first class" throughout process:

Sorry, I see Dave Hart as a total FAILURE.

Written on New UT coach Butch Jones in Knoxville:

Don't you get it???? He wasn't waiting to come to UT.. he was waiting for a coaching job in the SEC......where all the SEC coaches are laughing their a**** off and puting a check mark in the win column for fall 2013......what a disappointment..prove me wrong Jones.....PLEEEEEASE

Written on New UT coach Butch Jones in Knoxville:

Kind of worries me that he was willing to hurry up and wait while some many others were approached before him..seems he was determined to coach in the SEC...I don't think UT was his big interest....thinks a bigger job awaits in a couple years.....and to think what his buyout is...sure hope he's worth it....I hope he can do a good job...it's just that's he's kind of an unknown, at least to me....Hart, you did an absolutely MISERABLE job in your quest...you should very seriously consider NEVER searching for a coach for another university..

Written on New UT coach Butch Jones in Knoxville:

You waited and waited for this job coach Jones.....hope you prove you can coach in the SEC......Big Orange Fans are so hungry for a Winner.....Only time will tell....Your recruiting ability will show us what you have...2 star or 4 star players

Written on Vols' search for Dooley replacement continues:

11 TV (local east tn) Jones may be the one....reporter says cross your fingers(don't know if for or against) maybe just that there's a coach of some kind on day 19...in less than 24 hours after the 5th NO THANKS.....front runner is Butch Jones......10-1 season last year lost to UT...don't know why there is a 7:30 a.m.team meeting sources say....remember he turned down 2 jobs....waiting for Hart's knock I guess

Written on Vols' search for Dooley replacement continues:

Local news sports reporter says Butch Jones meeting with team at 7:30 a.m. Friday morning...OMG Lets hope he's going to Wisconsin or Colorado

Written on Vols' search for Dooley replacement continues:

Is BUTCH his real name? Butch Jones sounds like a groundskeeper. Sorry Butch never heard of you.....Just like coach sounding names But hope you don't come to ROCKY TOP.

Written on Vols' search for Dooley replacement continues:

So
Espn says an announcement Friday p.m. Hart has tried 18 days, had 5 say NO and now he has found someone in less than 24 hours...get ready for the BONFIRE.......someone already offered couch and love seat....You give someone a job because they want to be in the SEC...didn't say they wanted to be at UT....using it for a stepping stone to bigger things...another payout on the way or another coach to hire in a couple of years

Written on Vols' search for Dooley replacement continues:

Vol Fans...I want to introduce you to Butch Jones alias Derek Dooley..Butch will help us remember Derek..according to the words of Hart..who don't give a ---t about Tennessee

Written on Polls: Are you confident in Dave Hart? Should UT re-hire Phillip Fulmer?:

Fulmer is hopefully paid off....He has made enough money off UT. I won't buy tickets if he is the coach.... he was a boring coach...Vandy's coach is great to watch with his team...moving around, talking with them and so Full of ENERGY..Vandy is lucky to have him..sure doesn't stand around with his arms folded across a Santa tummy

Written on Polls: Are you confident in Dave Hart? Should UT re-hire Phillip Fulmer?:

Bo Pelini/ Nebraska/ 49-19 record last 5 years....Guess must have played Jr. Colleges to get that record....

Written on Names to watch: Tennessee coaching search Day 18 (updated Dec. 6):

Why do so many people want a fired coach? Petrino has baggage..... unappropriate baggage...if this was so simple he would still be coaching... I do have faith UT can do better. Not a good role model or does that matter????
