Let me restate. I'm a fan of the Tennessee Vols football program, have been pretty much whole life, always will be. I'm only a fan of any Tennessee Vols football program head coach to the extent that he's improving the program, winning games/championships, moving the program forward/in the right direction.
Yet, when I or most anybody else similarly posts much of anything "negative" about Butch Jones' job performance, like clockwork here come long knives from a handful of posters who seem to do nothing by snipe and gripe about criticism of Butch no matter how innocuous or how valid the point or criticism is. No criticism whatsoever of allowed of the head coach.....players and fans, you bet, no problem, let em have it. But the one singular guy most responsible for the successes and failures of the program, no siree, not allowed, go pull for somebody else, you're not a real Vol fan if you have anything not "positive" or glowing to say.
So, yeah, I stand by the idea that there guys on here who seem to have lost their way, their priority here. It's not about the caretaker, as Jones calls it, of the program, because they come and go......Neyland, Dickey, Majors, Fulmer......it's all about the good, the health and improvement of the program.
