Was Butch Jones also responsible for Hurricane Irma ? . Just asking for a friend.

Anyone want to take a step back and find out if there is a reason for this before condemning the coach or anyone else? Maybe he was being punished for something?

This could have some merit. Cause more distractions for a team to get an edge........and still lose.



Im joking for all the sjw out there.

Is VFL Coordinator a football program job or an //athletic department// job? VFL encompasses all sports, does it not, which would make it, I presume, an AD job and not a football program job--but I could be wrong. If it as AD job, then there should be no expectation of him traveling with the team unless there was room and Jones invited him. Has he traveled with the team in the past?

Basic, relevant facts are missing from the original post.

having swain and basillo as your primary torch bearers isn't exactly a ringing endorsement of not just stirring the pot.

they say things. people react. and they've managed to make careers out of it. and i don't hate swain. but he does tend to focus on tangents just for the sake of the reaction. i have zero use for Basillo.

Agree.

I don't know a lot of about Swain's show but I know he can't stand Jones.

Basillo is the definition of throwing crap against the wall and seeing if it sticks.

If it is true that Antone Davis doesn't travel with the team.............well, it's just classless.........

I can tell you from hearing from a friend at Florida with first hand knowledge.....this stuff is not exclusive to Tennessee.

There are former players from every program that believe they are entitled to anything whenever they make a request because they are a former player.

It doesn't work that way particularly when you have changes in the athletic department, coaches, etc.

There is a priority and pecking order among former players the way there is among boosters.

If you are Peyton Manning, you ask, you get. If you are Philip Fulmer or Johnny Majors, you ask, you get. Eric Berry. Josh Dobbs who played for Butch, you ask, you get.

Other guys are down the list. Now, if Davis is a dude who has been there and participated on several occasions, that would bump him up. I don't know if he has or not.

But, some of these dudes don't ask for squat (just like a booster) until it's Florida week and then they want stuff. Well, everyone wants stuff Florida and Alabama week.

Does he normally travel? I know there are NCAA limits on players traveling but are there rules for coaches and VFL outreach coordinators?
