Butch Jones gets contract extension

[Delmar]

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

That is an extremely low bar.

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

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

It’s a testament to the circus that’s been the football program for the last fifteen years that both of these statements are true.

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

Sure it was a load of bricks ?

 

[OrangeTsar]

The thing is…..why? Were they afraid of losing him to another school? A FOUR year extension???? That makes absolutely no sense.

That is an extremely low bar.

Some people know how to fail upward. Butch is one of those.

Arkansas State's season over/under wins is set at 4.5 (via sportsbook.fanduel.com).
The over is getting most of the money (approximately 55 percent of the money betting the over).

Idk. If you look at it every other failed coach we had landed a job almost immediately. I think probably Butch didn’t want to be more than a glorified secretary at the time but still. I don’t think Arkansas State is close to a major program or job. Jmo

Who is this "Butch Jones" of whom you speak?

Something higher than the 3 Stooges after Kiffin. I can’t count him since he didn’t stick around for more than a cup of coffee. I figure he would have had us on probation at the very least. The other three were simply morons.
