1. Butch isn't fluffing. I really believe it's his dream job. He's going to work his butt off.

2. I really like Coach Bajakian. He's a nerdy type. Former math teacher. 3 kids under 3 (Butch said he has too much time on his hands). Jim Chaney was kinda nerdy, but too much like Peter Griffin.

3. We have a quarterback who has a 4.0 GPA and is a genius and on the field. We have another QB who has lost 2 games IN HIS LIFE. I can dig that.

4. Fist up defense. When we get to 4th down on defense, everyone puts their fist up, because we've won. "We WILL play good defense at Tennessee, I promise you that."

5. John Jancek looks like Frank from Everybody Loves Raymond.

6. 4-3 defense. Getting after people. Going to be extremely well conditioned. Gonna wear people down.

7.Butch Jones called Bajakian the best QB coach in the country, and regarded by many that way. Stripling is the best DL coach in the country, the entire D-Line for the Broncos was coached by him.

8. DLinemen had 54 sacks combined between the 3 of them.

9. Malik Brown was about 215 this summer, but is now 252 pounds.

10. Jaylen Miller had about 25 sacks this season.

11. Gotta love the Northern Accents saying "Go Vouls." lol

Jay Graham says Jabo is very fast and explosive. Played for or won the state championship every year he's played.

Austin Sander's room at home is decked out in orange, and every letter Tenn. sent him was on his wall. When the new coaches came to his house for the first time, Coach Mahoney sent a text to Butch with a picture of his room, and said "I think we're okay."

Weisman got a UT offer from Dooley's staff. When he chose Cincinnati, his mom was so upset he didn't choose UT she didn't speak with him for a week.

When coaches sat with JRM, JRM critiqued his own film. He was a big recruiter, and a very smart player. Will be a leader in the Defensive backfield.

Coach Z and Coach Mahoney were both looking at the same house in Knoxville. They were describing it to each other, not knowing that it was the same house. They figured it out that it was the same house. So then the coaches wives started trying to bargain about who would put the first offer in on the house. Flippin coins and stuff.

Little did they know, Thig had already bought the house.

Thig gon Thig.

Coaches were at Corey Vereen's house. His dad got real serious all of a sudden, and looked at Corey and said "Go get it." Corey went upstairs. Got his guitar. He had taught himself how to play "Rocky Top" on guitar. Played it in front of a lot of people one recruiting weekend.

Question: "You've signed 21 players. Are you done?"

Answer: "One thing you'll learn about our staff, is that we're never done."
