Is it true that Butch told Trevor Lawrence he didn’t fit in his system

[rbvol]

At UT??

 

[SalVolinus]

Yes. And Lawrence didn't just randomly choose to wear #16 either.

 

[901LookAlive]

I think it is true Butch favored Justin Fields and Emory Jones over Trevor. Who needs a generational talent and what was considered the best QB prospect to come out in the modern recruiting industry?

 

[Behr]

We should fire that pos.

 

[82_VOL_83]

He wanted to sign another mobile QB like JG.

 

[V@l4Life]

Pretty fitting that Lawrence spanked his ass now that Botch is a Bammer.

 

[EricFreakingBerry]

Even if he didn't tell him that face to face, he basically told him that by the offense we put on the field. Outside of Dobbs' athleticism and determination, there was not much else about our offense those last couple Butch-led seasons that would have instilled faith in me (if I was Trevor) that I would be successful in that scheme.

 

[Grudenator]

Wouldn’t surprise me. This is the same man that benched Kamara for Hurd, when Hurd was wanting to play TE.

 

[BucksnortVol]

No, he wanted to find another Josh Dobbs.

I think some of our fans are trying to decide whether or not to get rid of their Butch Pajama's.

 

[Matt2496]

Butch bad.

We get it already.

 

[SayNoToJorts]

Looks like he made the correct choice

 

[Cartervol]

Square peg round hole kind of guy.. System was infallible though..

Damnit, I WAS getting ready to eat.. Thanks a lot Marine....

 

[CBR07]

Not to many long haired brick layers out there, so yeah, he told him that!

 

[AstonRoyal]

Probably not, we just wanna feel better about this whole thing.

Time to rehash the Battle years.

 

[FLVOL69]

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Yes.

Trevor has always been high on Tennessee, pretty much worshipped Peyton Manning growing up.

He was gift wrapped to play for Tennessee until Butch decided he didn’t fit his offense and told him that he wouldn’t play a down in the SEC.

Butch went after Emory Jones instead and didn’t land him either.

Two faced individual who bought into his own hype.

Out of all the things that Butch did to our program due to ineptness this is the most Bush league move ever. I just don't know for the life of me what would possess a PROFESSIONAL coach to be enthused about taking the picture after curb stomping those players you recruited and LET DOWN. WTF?

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Even if not actually true, I'm willing to believe it

Well heard over and over , on hear and everywhere: You have to have a QB like Johnny football, or Texans/Clemson former that I can think of his name (getting old) to beat Bama! Myth Busted
Lawrence can run but he didn’t have to last night. Beat Bama purely from throwing the ball

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

We should fire that pos.

Personally think they should rehire Jones so they can fire him again.

And then pay another buyout. That'll show him

 

[Vector]

Fahr Butch!

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Of course he didnt fit. Butchs system needed an extremely mobile QB to work. If Lawrence would have committed, he likely wouldnt be anywhere near as good as he is looking now. Clemson has much, much better talent that has been deeloped at a high level. Our OL would have gotten him hurt more than likely.
