Butch says it takes 6 to 7 years to build a program in the SEC

[I40flyer]

Anyone that thinks 3 years is enough to have a great program, you're dreaming, can you point to even one Great Coach, that has turned around a Top Ranked team in 3 years???
If you can, well, then, I guess CBJ is enjoying his $3,000,000.00++/year salary and will for at least 3 more.

Dynasty in year 6?? He's still just trying to get bowl eligible in year 3....I think you're putting words in his mouth.

Wait...were we not bowl eligible last year?

 

[butchna]

And here I thought you were just a random poster.

No you didn't. :wink2:

 

[sjt18]

I can't imagine hating my team the way you seem to. Must be a sad world.

Yep. KB hates the Vols SO much that he supports them... rather than being a blind follower of a coach.

Wait...were we not bowl eligible last year?

At the time of my post, we had 4 wins. We now have 5 wins....it takes 6 wins in any given season to become bowl eligible. This is 2015, not 2014. Math.

Appreciate the support 18, but your quoting that ****** led me to actually, inadvertently, read his post....ugh. Have him and 1 other on ignore so as to improve my VN experience.

That's a weird way to frame it since the post implies that being bowl eligible is the team's goal (and the "just" implies that it hasn't happened yet). Pretty sure that's 9-4.

I love reader, he's clearly locked in his own little world where's he's the baddest vol of all... never put anyone on ignore. Laugh at their responses.

That is good advice

Glad you recognize that. As that's what a LOT of us do with you. Tip of the cap

LOL blind follower. The REALITY is there's blindness alright. It's you and your ilk who are blind to the progress the rest of us can see.

So there must have been another poster to show how wrong you and your followers are about our program. I feel honored.

I didn't "imply" or "frame" anything. The post I responded to said Jones meant it'll take 6-7 years to build a dynasty....I simply said that with 4 wins, we're still trying to get bowl eligible in his 3rd season as coach, i.e., in 2015. You're reading more into the post and assigning your own meaning to it.

Large difference between what's progress and what's acceptable.

My bad, I was putting words into the coaches mouth, you would really hafta to get him to go into detail of what exactly he was talking about.

I certainly hope so. If anyone takes it more seriously than that, they have bigger problems...

Interesting point.

I would imagine most would agree that there is a huge gap between Dooley and acceptable/expectations.

I think Jones lands somewhere between.

No worries. Go Vols indeed!

 

[DancingOutlaw]

I guess what frustrates me is seeing teams like Arkansas or Florida get those "signature" wins. And time and again we come away with moral victories. We had OU whipped. We had UF whipped. We had Bama on the ropes. We did beat UGA but they were on their way down the elevator shaft. It just seems that over and over and over we cannot find whatever it is to overcome and get a big win. Getting tired of the Cubs "wait until next year" mantra.

I don't know about great, but there's one down in Gainsville that has done it in one year. Kinda makes your point mute.

Just to be clear, Arkansas "signature win" was against a team that got trashed by the same team we mostly dominated in Florida and also got trashed by Memphis? So their "signature win" has one less loss than us? And Florida's "signature wins" were THAT SAME Ole Miss team and...?...?...?

Us?


What zactly you b******* about?

 

[Volview]

If CBJ keeps improving UT every year at the current rate then at year 6-7 they will be very good indeed.
5-7
6-6
8-4 (most likely)
if the current trend continues:
9-3
10-2
11-1
12-0

Florida has not beaten a team all season that is currently ranked.

God bless the SEC East
