Wow. Smart move to get Butch locked down until 2026. The Power 5 schools have to be ready to… I’m sorry I couldn’t even get through that.

 

[tnutater]

Phil the AD there now?

 

[YankeeVol]

I really need to get into coaching football

 

[Volfan1000]

Arkansas State just bought a lot of bricks with that extension.

 

[LouderVol]

No matter what you think of Butch Jones, he knows how to pick the best agent.

Whoever he is, he could sell ice to Eskimos.

 

[DaddyChad]

He sucks but he’s recruiting well for there. Really no other way to justify it.

 

[Delmar]

A contract extension to stay in Jonesboro? Sounds like an extended sentence rather than an extension.

 

[SDV]

Just long enough until Saban retires

Which means in year 3 he'll probably make a decent jump, year 4 he'll have his division wrapped up then choke away games again teams he should beat, and then year 5 he'll fall off a cliff.

Worst case scenario he spends 3 to 4 years bringing in great talent (for that level) for another coach to win with.

Not much risk for Arkansas St IMO.

 

[Firebirdparts]

I wish you could see the unsurprised look on my face. I guess is will expect a statement of continuing confidence post haste.

 

[wmcovol]

Lord, help them for they know not what they’re doing.

 

[OneVolNation]

Wow. He recruited a 4 star LB/edge rusher transfer from Alabama with a Day 2 NFL scout projection.

If anyone can sell bullshat it’s Jones.

He’s probably got a forged letter of recommendation from Saban saying he couldn’t have accomplished as much as he did without Butch.

I mean word is he had Saban his coffee and oatmeal cream pies ready every morning.

 

[ENGRVOL]

He will get some talent at ark state which will lead to some wins. Won’t coach up that talent but will have 3-4 years to jump ship before ark state realizes it.

 

[volfanhill]

He is the most successful coach we've had since Fulmer.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

He is the most successful coach we've had since Fulmer.

Yet still one of the worst coaches we have ever had.

Well there is that. I had high hopes. Just shows what I know.

That’s not saying much
