SIAP, but what is Jones buyout schedule if we fire him? His buyout to leave is fairly small.
2.5 million per year for next 4 years totalling to 10 million if he is fired today.
Unlike Dooley's, his buyout will decrease if he takes another job. So if we fire him and Butch makes close to 5 million in next 4 years, we only owe him 5 million.
Butch should be able to land a mid tier job and we should be able to afford another 5-6 million. Fire him !!!
Good thing he got that extension after going 6-6 in 14'. Otherwise his contract would be up soon. Thanks Hart. (Sarcasm).
Edit: and a pay raise in 15 with increased buyout.

I am glad the folks on here don't make the decisions for UT.
Change coaches now and get ready for another bad 4 to 5 years.
Some seemed to have not learned anything from the past.

I've learned you don't hold onto a dead man walking coach to save a few bucks. Recruiting will CONTINUE its downward spiral. Waiting does NOT help in these situations.
Jones' buyout if he is fired is $10 million, paid to Jones from UT.
Jones' buyout to leave is $2 million, paid by Jones to UT.
Get it?

Florida,Ala,AU,USC,Michigan etc didn't go through 4-5 bad years after a coaching change..neither would we with the right hire.
