Butch Jones' players left him an inspirational quote in his mailbox

Apparently, Jones still has the support of several players despite the disappointing collapses in three of the last four games.

Said the team put an envelope in his mailbox today that had an inspirational quote in it about hanging on past the point you think you can.

I don't get the message. It's either telling Butch to coach better in the 4th quarter to hold leads or it sounds like a message for someone who's about to commit suicide or something.

Do they feel he's gonna lose it? Or do they think he may walk off the job? Or do they think he's about to be fired?

It's almost like saying step away from the edge, sir! Or put that bottle down, there's no hope it that!

This is a VERY ODD quote....an inspirational one at that....

Please explain the possitive quote to me.....

You may be over thinking this.. Think it simply a message to hang in there.. Something like 'when the going gets tough, the tough get going'...

Leaving coach a sweet note, some chocolates and a bouquet of flowers is sweet and awfully nice, but it seems they could help him and themselves a lot more by actually winning some games.

I have obtained a copy of said quote.

I know there's pain
Why do lock yourself up in these chains?
No one can change your life except for you
Don't ever let anyone step all over you
Just open your heart and your mind
Is it really fair to feel this way inside?

Some day somebody's gonna make you want to
Turn around and say goodbye
Until then baby are you going to let them
Hold you down and make you cry
Don't you know?
Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day
Can you hold on for one more day
Things'll go your way
Hold on for one more day

You could sustain
Or are you comfortable with the pain?
You've got no one to blame for your unhappiness
You got yourself into your own mess
Lettin' your worries pass you by
Don't you think it's worth your time
To change your mind?

Some day somebody's gonna make you want to
Turn around and say goodbye
Until then baby are you going to let them
Hold you down and make you cry
Don't you know?
Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day
Can you hold on for one more day
Things'll go your way
Hold on for one more day

I know that there is pain
But you hold on for one more day and
Break free the chains
Yeah I know that there is pain
But you hold on for one more day and you
Break free, break from the chains

Some day somebody's gonna make you want to
Turn around and say goodbye
Until then baby are you going to let them
Hold you down and make you cry
Don't you know?
Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day yeah
If you hold on

Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day
If you hold on
Can you hold on
Hold on baby
Won't you tell me now
Hold on for one more day 'Cause
It's gonna go your way

Don't you know things can change
Things'll go your way
If you hold on for one more day
Can't you change it this time

Make up your mind
Hold on
Hold on
Baby hold on
