2017 College Football Hot Seats

So the point is you go out and get a good coach and you win more games than your historic average? If that is your point, I completely and totally agree.

We should do that right now!

Will never happen at UT. I really feel our booster base is totally incompetent. That is how we ended up with Dooley and Jones.
 
Butch has made some good progress in rebuilding the program, but he's also made some costly mistakes. The 3-year trend of abnormally high rate of injuries and the way the team performed this season are symptoms of some of his mistakes. 2016 was a golden opportunity to win the SEC East and go to the Sugar Bowl. Under achievement this season has hurt momentum and made recruiting more challenging than it should've been at this juncture. He has said he's evaluating everything and will make changes to fix what needs fixing. He had better, because some other SEC East teams are gaining some momentum.

Hate to say you are correct. But right now I see UT finishing 4th or 5th in the east next year.
 
Worley over Dobbs.

Only when Worley was hurt did Dobbs start. Everyone knew Dobbs had more talent but Butch started Worley. He won't give the keys and his fate to JG who has zero experience.

He tried to red shirt him and it was the right thing to do.

It makes me cringe thinking back to blowing that redshirt. Just imagine how much better (not saying he wasnt great this year) Josh Dobbs would be going into next year as a red shirt senior? That would have been great.

I'm still excited about the future. Even more so if the assistant coaching change rumblings are true.

I have no problem bashing Butch when its warranted and i guess I'm what some call a "nega" since I doubt he has a bright future, but I want to be fair to the guy.
Trying to redshirt Dobbs was absolutely the right thing to do, it sucks that he was not able to. He shouldn't be bashed for that.
