A couple thoughts the morning after:
1. UT isn't firing Butch on accord of this season's results.
2. I was the first on this board to predict he'd leave for a slight step down to preserve his image. That's now widely assumed to be true in the sense he's shopping around. I say let him go.
3. I once said "Butch isnt my kinda guy" and people asked what I meant. His postgame "presser" is just one of many examples of what I mean.
4. We can argue all day long about what level of good Josh Dobbs was as a QB. From above average to great - we'll never have a consensus. What we can all agree on is he is 100% an awesome man. How he handled himself yesterday was a great example of his character. Proud of him. Compare it to our head coach.
5. You can tell which players give their all and which don't. It's sad.
6. Player development has been hit or miss.
7. Changing S&C coach when we did was a red flag for me.
8. Locker room problems are a red flag for me.
9. Unprecedented penalties are a red flag for me.
10. A complete change in the amount of turnovers is a red flag for me.
11. Because of the above points I believe something happened this offseason in Jones's approach. I believe he thought he'd arrived. He let his players dictate too many things, as well.
12. When you promise kids things so they'll commit to you, then break those promises, you'll see 25+ kids leave. He should have never made those promises.
