Gaulden practiced today for the first time since fall camp. Won't be playing in the bowl game, but that's great news regardless. He'll be 100% for spring practice.

I'm good with the raise for Butch. Now go win that bowl game. I probably would have waited until after that, though. 200k raise for losing, 500k for winning.

Yes. Awesome news. Kid is going to light it UP on D next year. Sucks he got hurt.

Will be interesting to see what happens with Butch's pay/contract next season. I would assume he will need to reach at least 10 regular season wins to get another raise, but would he get an extension if he wins 10 but fails to beat UF and Bama/misses the SECCG?

Looks like Sheriron Jones had added some serious bulk to his frame.

Jones said that walk-on punter Trevor Daniel has earned a scholarship

Some injured guys that were back out there: Rashaan Gaulden, Quart'e Sapp, Austin Sanders. Jennings and North, too.

Rashaan Gaulden (foot) returned to practice today. Vincent Perry and Jason Croom “ran routes” today, Jones said.

I wonder what the odds are we try and redshirt Dormady next year and use Jones as backup next year so we can have max number of years for whoever wins the job in 2017?

If there was ever anybody that earned a scholarship after walking onto a team it would be him. Kid earned it with so much win.

Love seeing Croom back out there running. I really really want this guy back out on the field. Big presence and was coming along nicely last year. And congrats to the man for graduating this past semester.

Not going to be able to steal years like we attempted with Dobbs...whoever loses out as a backup transfers. That transfer year is valuable. All JMO of course. :hi:

I get the feeling that if we don't RS Dormady then I think it could be a sign that the boss man likes Dormady's skill set better than Jones? Kid will get some mop-up duty next year and that is some good experience. But I do see the good that would come from RSing him. Dang, I dunno which I would prefer lol.

I could be completely wrong on this, but I feel like Jones is more likely to stick around than Dormady. He is Dobbs' shadow on the sidelines and in all of the "behind the scenes" footage. Always hanging around close to him. Wouldn't surprise me if he's putting on the weight in an effort to be Dobbs 2.0 and fit the offense as a running QB.

Hubbs/Fortenberry have mentioned that he's a good ways behind Dormady in terms of passing ability, but he's got a long time to improve that before the 2017 season.

I love seeing practice updates. It's like the victory lap for the season. I love team 119. They've won me over.

Getting dusty in here.. 😭

@TheDannyParker: #Vols Butch Jones on graduate assistant @UTCoachSheridan: "He's done a good job for us. We have to do what's best for the program."


First thing I have read that makes me think he isn't getting the job. Perhaps i am reading to much into it
