Of course... there is no concrete way to measure this, but given what he and his staff have done to this point on and off the field and including recruiting, I'm starting to understand what he was talking about.

This staff all share the same vision and obviously have great chemistry. Give them two years and we'll be back competing for championships.

I have enjoyed going through game threads and the type threads that have bashed The hire and the staff. We have some fickle fans. There are so many it is unbelievable. Coach jones stated it is a process and without stating it that the process is going to take some time. We are ahead of schedule I do believe.

There is a lot of second guessing and questioning his decisions which seemingly have all been correct. This coach must know his players very well. He could not have scripted the 4th quarter on Saturday any better or the GA comeback.

It's funny, fans changing like the wind...bipolar.

OBTW, did I read that 3 of our coaches in the top 25 for college recruiters.

If u think this is the best staff please tell me what have they done as a complete staff that backs up your assumptions..

Def is better but not great. Special teams most improved
Off is not good n nothing on the off side shows the off staff is the best..

Have u forgotten the fla game n the qb play. I have other examples also.

Let's talk at the end of the season now its to early IMO.

Now if they beat bama I will agree

Why do I think if UT beats Bama that you'll still have plenty examples of why the coaches haven't done anything and still suck? Won't matter if anyone talks at the middle or end of this season, or the beginning of next season.... your opinion, no worries, you have the right to pick out all the failures and shortcomings. Think I'm gonna look for the positives, of which there are many, and feel good about where the program is headed.

All that has been proven so far is that this staff is better than the last. We had a good win bit I wont be convinced until we see consistent success. Just my opinion

SMH. Just let things happen. There is no reason why we should be any more than cautiously optimistic right now. We have some really good teams we still have to play so just let things happen. Otherwise all it causes is flame outs.

We r lucky we beat usc cause beating auburn and mizzou doesn't look like it's going to be as easy as so many on here have thought just because we r UT.

I'll say this - I liked Derek Dooley, at first, I supported him, and I wanted him to win when he was here, but I never truly bought in like I have to Butch Jones.

True story here: I was riding a shuttle bus back to where I had parked my car on Saturday, and the bus driver had the Butch Jones Show playing over the speakers. Everyone, including the Carolina fans on the bus, were quiet, listening to the players and Coach Jones recount how the Vols came away victorious. During one of the players' interview, he said something to the effect of "we would run through a wall for Butch Jones". As soon as he said that, I kid you not, everyone on the packed-full bus started cheering and clapping. It's been a while since we could truly trust a coach, and I think we've found our guy. Here's to hoping he becomes as well-loved in the state of Tennessee as the last great caretaker of Tennessee football was.

We have a great coaching staff. Best? Objectively, I disagree.

Even so, do I see us contending for championships within the next 3-4 years? Absolutely. They have been a perfect fit for us so far.

I agree and think that UT must do all it can to keep this staff together for a few seasons.

Nothing wrong with someone being confident in their staff. Thats one thing Butch oozes, confidence, and its contagious. The man really believes he's got the best staff. Sure they have a long way to go but I can't argue with the results so far.

Then why are we 3-3?


Oh, and 1-2 in conference?
Click to expand...

1. Not enough talent
2. Having to change losing culture
3. Starting/playing numerous freshmen and
Walkons (see #1)
4. Possibly the most difficult schedule in the
Country
5. First year starter at QB
6. Did I mention we're a low on talent with little depth??
