Bye bye Butch - Purdue bound (message board rumor)

I don't know all the details of what's in Butch's deal. If they told him to fire his entire staff and work with people that Dave Hart selects and failure to do so was a material breach do you think Jones does it and holds his breath for a buyout? There are ways to force a coach's hand in these situations. I tend to agree that it's a long shot but there are some intriguing things happening and I think it's quite telling that so many people are interpreting those signs as an indication that Jones may leave. If nothing else, it's a clear expression of lack of confidence.

Same thing is said every coaching search.. and then next thing you know were googling the name of the new coach and TN is 5-7 the next 3 years in a row. Well, at least Butch will be gone so you guys can be happy!

You're always supporting losers first hilLIARy and now Lyle.

Butch would be a great hire for Purdue. It's more his speed. I don't think it's happening, but it would be an interesting twist.
 
Pathetic if not true.

Ban worthy as well.


On a side note I bet the fans will be extremely upset at our next coach within 4 games. They don't understand that the fans are the reason no one is fired up to come here.

This is so stupid. People practically got in line to worship Butch when he got here. All Butch had to do was win and he would've been Tennessee royalty.

There are better candidates out there than Jones. Les Miles, Fleck...Colorado is definitely more than happy with Jones turning down their offer. Year four with losses to USCjr and Vandy... this is not who they'd throw money at

Purdue is happening for Butch, will find out later this week.

I want to believe you however I've not seen the first solid evidence other than the flight tracker I posted which I even said it was for fun and not to look too much into it. Did a plane fly to Purdue? Yes, Was Butch Jones on it? 90% No.
 
I will say that though I dont think this is happening, the fact that his name isnt on message boards or lists for Purdue means n9thing. Mendenhall to UVA was a total surprise, as was Riley to Nebraska. Cuonzo to Cal was under the radar. Every now and then schools can pull a stunner. However, it has been like a day since Butch told his players and recruits he was leaving for Purdue, right OP?

No one saw Butch coming until Charlie turned UT down
