Butch Jones to Knoxville Catholic?

Sympathy for Butch is a tough sell. He was handed the keys (undeservedly) to a top tier football program and walked away with millions after he screwed it up.

I don’t think we should be mad at him for the money aspect of it. Be mad at the administration. Butch was smart enough to cash in and take care of his family for life. It sucks that it didn’t work out the way all of us wanted it to, but can’t blame him for getting his $$.
 
so let me get this straight. If I make minimum wage and get laid off, and want to draw unemployment, at a minimum in many case, i have to keep of record of 3 employees that i tried to contact EVERY week which then must be reported to the state. But if I make millions of dollars, then my best effort is to have my agent "express interest" in a job, not fill out an application, go to interviews, or actively document and report these efforts, and I still expect to rake in benefit? got it :pilot:

Glad it clicked for you. I'm busy filling out an application for the Arizona job myself. Who knew getting hired as a head coach of a football program was as simple as filling out a paper job application?
 
I went ahead and bought plane tickets to Tucson so I can have a walk in interview Monday. It's going to be so epic. I'm wearing my best Walmart button up. You know, since I just set up interviews myself when I'm job searching for a head coaching job.
 
Under qualified to coach there. Lol... Their coach won't go for throwing a play action pass on 1st and goal from the 1 , than calling time and doing it again.

Not mad at him, just don’t feel sympathy for him

The fact that both CBJ's son and CM are in the same class explains why CM was so butt hurt about UT.:whistling:

Yup, agreed.

Sorry, but CBJ averaged about 6 regular season wins per year over an half decade at UT...bottom line, CBJ couldn't cut it at an elite level. UT's an elite program. So, boo freakin whoo...he made more money every 90 days, than a vast majority of fans can save over a lifetime. Cry me a river, please!
 
I searched and didn't see a thread on this. Jones reaching out to Catholic makes it seem like he's not pursuing other opportunities.



Luke Slabaugh

Sean Payton did the same thing. Let Butch relax and draw his money. He left things better than that bast@@d Dooley.
 
It's good for him to take a break from the collegiate level and have some much needed time with family. He's probably missed a lot of his sons career and this could be an opportunity to try and make up for loss time.

Hope Volnation doesn't get in the way of this happening if it is wan5ed by both parties.

Several have gone elsewhere. Suprised you could not even think of Harrison Smith. Most kids don't get a scholarship to play D1 but still play college ball.


Well the guy I responded to was talking about all the talent Knoxville Catholic was pipelining to Clemson. Yes I knew Harrison Smith played for them, but they have no historical funneling of star talent to D1 football.

I know they have built a strong program especially since they relocated the campus to the west side of Knoxville, and they have sent some good players to the next level. I am just calling someone out for making like they were busing players from their graduation ceremony straight to Dabo and Clemson.

There were equally a thousand or so that said he wasn't/isn't/never was coming to UT and these were ignored. Chuckie gets the VN troll of 2017 award hands down!
 
I guess I am going to be THAT guy but I did talk to someone yesterday very much in the know and Butch has asked to be WR coach at Knoxville Catholic if he does not get a job elsewhere. His kids go to school there and I think he just does not want to get bored.

You only get true "insider" status if you can tell us (even if it's a lie) that an MOU was signed.

Or...tell us that you and MIT Beaver were sitting at the bar at the Honors Course drinking Scotch after your round was cancelled due to the weather and he heard the same thing.
