His HS coach is working at USC now and almost assuredly helped get him in. It's a good move for him if he leaves the drama and becomes a professional.

His little social media tantrums last year probably wouldn't have made him exactly welcome in UTs complex.

Those were good ones. Any P5 examples?

I am sure there are some. But I am guessing each school uses a search firm a little differently. Some are probably used just to vet candidates. I am sure they have to review resumes and call a number of references. Some will use their connections to suggest candidates.

Reflecting back on the season, it was definitely an exciting ride. We didn't get where I wanted us to be but some saturdays were gold. What was everyone's favorite moment (you can write it, post a gif, post a video or picture to express it)

Mine was this

This is hilarious!! Wait.....no......no....it's not.

Also, the feeble attempt at humor is based upon an inaccuracy. Walt Wells' charge was reduced to reckless driving, but don't let the facts get in the way of your agenda.

Haha my agenda? Are you suggesting I'm upset over Walt Wells being hired and having a prior DUI or reckless driving? It was sarcasm over others freaking out about it. I could care less.

Really what the hell is Jimmy thinking? Not the way to work your way back into a good position to get info. I don't twitter, so I don't know the context of how, or why it was brought up. It seems like a hit plain and simple.

If Butch didn't do his homework on Wells enough to know this, then shame on him.

As far as Hyams goes, the UT athletic department ought to consider banning him.

A tweet like this does nothing but harm.

Well, considering that it happened while Wells was employed at UT, I am pretty confident in saying that Butch knew. It got reduced to a reckless driving, and it appears he still got suspended. That goes a long way in deciding future employment.

Lol, Jones was well aware and the guy was disciplined.
Waterboarding wasn't needed to and they decided to leave the guys fingernails intact.

Yeah he's been pretty outspoken about him not liking the way things are being run. Also he's got a lot of growing up to do judging by a lot of his comments.

Definitely a ton of growing up to do.

Working out a bunch of West Knox soccer moms and struggling recent sorority grads wasn't helping him do that. Hopefully a new job will help that.

“I’m thankful for this past (2016) season,” he said. “I was able to showcase being a complete back and coach Jones always set things up to help the team and play to my strengths. To be in an organization that supports you and better your weaknesses.”

If that's the case, then I apologize. I missed the sarcasm. Won't be the first time or the last.

My bad, I should have read all the way through to your explanation before posting. I get so used to the ones on here who always have an alternative motive for their post. I apologize!!

He turned on a dime and got very negative about Tennessee. Mainly stirring drama about a lot of what he thought was wrong with the program and how he disliked Jones. The problem was he wasn't exactly backed by a great group.

My main point though was he posted a lot of immature drama he needs to grow past...Things like some story about a drunk girl peeing in his living room.
