Butch Jones should have been given another year to turn things around. Change my mind.

Didn't read the whole thread so sorry about repeats. 1. No commitment to Strength Program. 2. Players quit on him. 3. Coaching Staff quit on him. 4. Corny slogans only go so far. 5. Have you lost your freaking mind?

He and Fulmer with exact same records their last 4 years.

When was the last time Coach Fulmer lost to Vandy, lost to SCAR, 3 straight times, lost to bama 10 straight, lost to Kentucky/Mizzou at all, lost to Georgia more than 30% of the time, or lost to an SECWest team? Not to mention that Coach Fulmer had a slightly better record against Florida.

Also worth noting that Butch had a future NFL starting RB in Kamara on the roster and barely gave him any touches to be more productive.

Pure ignorance.
 
Last season the team wasn't ready for Game 1 and they didn't care for game 12. Butch wouldn't have been worse. But that's just one year.

Except that didn't happen. Look at Kamara's stats. He touched the ball.

This is pure insanity. The talent, the culture, the physicality of our players, the attitude within the Anderson Training Facility and all throughout the program was complete crap after year 4, and year 5’s 4-8 season under Jones exposed all that.

As it turned out, the 247 expose that got many anonymous quotes from within the building telling us that Jones was an insecure little tyrant who was well in over his head while sprinting away from even semi-reasonable expectations for a once great football program was spot on the money, despite all the protestations from guys like you in the fan base.

Not only no, but hell no to your premise here. If anything, Jones never should’ve gotten the 5th year.
That's as spot on as it gets. He got the 5th year because Hart was resigning and UT Admin was very slow in getting Currie in here.Seems like we gave up 3 years in developing our players because of that debacle which is the reason we appear to be so far behind the rest of the conference at present. We're forced to be patient now and it's hard after what we've endured. I think we're on the right track but about 2 years away from contending.

Not nearly as often as he should have. It’s embarrassing watching him on Sundays. He was barely a factor here.

He had nearly 1000 yards rushing and receiving and about 200 return yards in '16.

About what he averaged last year.
 
OK. He had 1 100 yard rushing game last season vs. .the Giants.

Kamara is an absolute stud but to say he didn't get the ball at UT is wrong.

He got the ball as an after thought while we tried to force feed a power I back the ball. He’s someone that actually could have thrived in a spread option with Dobbs. He could have been an All-American at a zillion schools.
