The good new for the Vols is Jones has an offensive system in place that doesnt appear to need fixing or an overhaul.
Tennessees offense has been on an upswing since Jones took over a program that had won just two of its previous 16 SEC games entering into the 2013 season.
The Vols have averaged more points per game from one season to the next each of Jones four years at the helm.
The continuity of in-house hire might be too tempting for Jones to resist, particularly after Tennessee set single-season records for touchdowns and points scored this season despite a barrage of injuries that left only two offensive starters capable of starting every game.
