Butch Jones made many mistakes at Tennessee.

His ineptitude knew no bounds.

Sayeth the Butch Jones of football prognosticators.

I'm pretty sure I told y'all in 2015 Butch Jones was a terrible coach while most around here still believed in him. I kept saying he was the only thing keeping the 2015-16 teams from greatness.

So your predicting NC just underscores my observation.

I think we should start a petition to ask AK to change his number to 47 with ago fund me to help him buy it off whatever teammate has it.

AK-47

Rookie of the year

Easily. Awesome year.

Not wanting to turn this political but I suspect there are a bunch of sensitive types that would be "offended" by the violent connotation.

I thought our incredible players could overcome his ineptitude.

I was wrong.

But he was the second string back under Butch. Wow what an idiot

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Someone released him in my fantasy league and I snatched him up. Won the league championship last weekend with him.

I’m adopting the Saints as my playoff team and hoping he gets a Super Bowl won.

AP already gave him the nick name ak-41. Apparently it may have stuck.

It has amazed me at the posters in this thread that I normally disagree with that I have given likes.
Much new respect to a certain powerful poster.

Aw shucks... thanks for the compliment.

Saw this on someone's Twitter feed:

"Alvin Kamara has joined Gale Sayers (1965) as the only rookies in NFL history to have at least 5 rushing TDs, 5 receiving TDs & a kickoff-return TD"

In my opinion, Gale Sayers was the best running back To play the game and Alvin is in his class, he was definitely under used at Tennessee, however, being under used at Tennessee should increase his longevity in the NFL and allow him to make more $$$$$$.

Pretty sure, eh?

So underutilized at UT.

Fun fact: AK averaged more touches per game this year with the Saints than he did in his previous two years with the Vols. This despite sharing the Saints' backfield with former Heisman winner Mark Ingram, and less total plays per game in the NFL than in college. Thanks again, Butch.

 

[VOLAGAIN]

Didnt a certain former RBs mom say he would not do too well....

One of his most egregious mistakes was playing Hurd way, way, way more than Kamara...which was something you heartily endorsed and defended when he did it

 

[KBVol]

She did. Completely classless when she did. Should’ve kept her mouth shut.

 

[BigBadVol]

Lol

I realize you’re a troll.

She should have applied and tried out for the trailer park boys show. She would have gotten lead actress hands down.

 

[Geaux_Vols]

Should just go ahead and make this a sticky.

It's a shame that you can't file a lawsuit for incompetence - or at least not pay a "buy-out".

I hope the "coaching-good-ole-boy system" has learned that CBJ is over his head in a mud puddle.

The SEC is far and away the best league. Prob just weaker competition now. :thumbsup:

Deion says Kamara 'should be in the running for MVP'

Can't say I disagree with the legend. What Alvin did this year hasn't been seen since Gale Sayers in 1965. He should be the NFL MVP.

 

[UT Hill Man]

Deion was a magical player in his day - it's nice he is giving props to Kamara.
