This is not a knock/shot at Butch, and its also completely true for 99% of ALL coaches out there. But I doubt CBJ has the cojones, courage, or confidence within himself to hire PM on his own. And that goes for every job at any capacity on the TN coaching staff. If PM wanted to coach here though, then CBJ couldn't say no. That wouldn't be allowed by the UT administration.
He'd not have any say so, or choice in the matter what so ever. CBJs hand would be bullishly forced. At the same time however, PM would NEVER go that route. He just wouldn't accept a coaching position unless he was welcomed here with open arms by CBJ. Neither scenario will EVER happen though. The chances of PM coaching here in the future are miniscule, as in less than .00001%. It's just not happening for multiple reasons.
