In case anyone is interested, here is a complete list of every question Butch was asked during the press conference (paraphrased).. Spoiler Alert: His job was not mentioned.

- Asked for him to comment on Missouri run game

- Asked about JG & QB situation

- Asked about WR injuries

- Commented on Defensive take-aways - asked when the 'light bulb came on' for them

- "Would you consider leaving Trey Smith at tackle?"

- "Were you surprised that people were critical of burning McBride's red shirt?"

- "JG is looking better - is he settling in?"

- "Missouri is playing better than they were at the start of the season - what have they improved on?"

- "What did you like about McBride? Where can he improve?"

- "How does Drew Locke compare to other QB's you've faced this season?"

- Asked to talk about what Evan Berry has meant to the program

- "Will Kongbo retain his starting spot after the suspension?"

- Asked about 3rd string QB if JG and WB both go down

Are the reporters told not to ask any other questions?

If one of the "Knoxville Media Members" asked a tough question of Butch...

Butch is too stubborn to resign. He will have to be fired. He actually still thinks he is doing a great job

Why would he walk away, would you? As long as he is fired without cause, he is going to get a big payout. He would be stupid to quit.

And he elaborated more on the other team questions than on his own”individuals”. He should have said more about Evan!

Jones says Drew Lock has a quick release and a "live arm."

And he said he would be playing for many years on Sunday. I don’t think he has ever said that about one of his players

I don't think John Adams is allowed back and I'm pretty sure the guys from Fox Sports Radio aren't allowed within a 5 mile radius. Someone should have asked him about Antone

^This

I understand them not being allowed to ask about his job.. But the Antone situation is huge imo. And it involves allegations about Butch, specifically.

I'm pretty sure they have to get their questions pre approved at this point after Butch Jones's meltdown a few weeks ago

Is that why everyone’s beating down the door for the job?

Why do you think it’s radio silence?

I don’t think being pragmatic is loser talk.

I want us to win every game, but the guy that takes this job next is crazy enough to accept a suicide mission or dumb enough to not know what he’s getting into.

What coach is screaming for the Florida job?

I think he would be fine on both of those issues. How many years has he been gone something like 8 yrs . A person can grow up and learn alot in 8 yrs. If Kiffen can ever become an adult he is a championship coach. I think he understands that leaving UT was a big mistake. I like the fact that he doesn't care much for his old boss.

Just don't send your daughter to UT or she may end up bent over the desk.

Jones said earlier that "Tyler Byrd will get even more involved in the offensive gameplan now" in reference to WR injuries

So he will go from .56 touches per game to 2.1 touches a game?

I'm unfamiliar with how Saban has lost games. Too familiar with CBJ's work. Just a hair on the conservative side.

I think it's over for him. I'm guessing PM and PF advised that it's a bad idea to fire a coach mid year.
