Not that UT fans need to hear this, since we're living it, but Jones' reputation nationally has taken a huge hit this month:
1. Butch Jones is in trouble. Understand what I mean by this after Tennessee blew another late lead, lost another game it controlled and fell once again to Florida (make it 11 straight losses and counting). I'm not saying Jones will or should be fired after this year. But is Jones in trouble? Yes. He may continue to point to strong recruiting classes on signing day and preach about next year. The problem is Tennessee fans don't want to hear it when Jones' teams inexplicably blow leads. That's two losses this month that were games Tennessee should have won. Florida's Jim McElwain out-coached Jones and won a game even the Gators' coach said his team didn't deserve.

Hard to believe how much has changed since this article came out on Sept. 10th, but two enormous debacles will do that:
