I'll support his efforts to find another job. I'll even support him by helping load the truck.

I'll then thank him for the rebuild, and the recruiting...and support him leaving East Tennessee.

All the best in your new endeavours coach.

If I am Currie, I sit him down today and let him know that the passion and preparation we see each year for the bowl game is what we are expecting each week. Beat GA and LSU (both possible) and win the ones we should we still get the East.

Hopefully CBJ learns from this weekend. He is a great recruiter and seems to find high character young men.

I like it, somehow sprinkle the magic dust and win the East. He's already behind the 8 ball.
OR GTFO

People may not like this post, but firing Butch Jones will set us back another 5+ years.

Support Butch he didn't lose the game, poor execution lost us that game. Should we have given Kelly the ball on the 1, yes, but we also should have not had penalties in the red zone. We shouldn't have shanked a punt to give them field possession. We shouldn't have let a WR run past us.

The program is in the best shape it has been in since 2006. Stay the course and support Butch.


After what we've witnessed in his colossal blunders and the list of coaches that are quite likely available? No way. Five years is plenty. Strike while the iron is hot.

There is so much talent on this team that a proven head coach can take this team and win the East next year. This is the year to fire Butch. Every year has been the same thing with him.

There is enough talent that a suitable interim could rally us and get us back in the hunt. I think we can all agree Florida is likely not winning the East.

Butch ain't the one.

I said yesterday....we need to get out ahead if the rush. There are multiple SEC schools that will he looking for a new coach at the end if the season. We need to he first and not get the leftovers.

Nope. We have a 10-2 or 11-1 roster and a 7-5 coach. The right hire would right the ship quickly.

Butch Jones is the guy who picks up a Camaro, tells folks it's a Ferrari, and leaves it parked in front of his shack while the tires dry-rot because he doesn't know how to drive it.

Execution was poor, but coaching cost us this game period. That said, everyone loses at least 1 game every year they shouldn't (even bama). Our fans want perfection and the only coach who has sustained anything close to it is Saban. It's an unrealistic expectation.

No one here is asking for perfection. That's a ridiculous assertion. Some of us are just asking for a team that isn't inept--a team that is coached up to its recruited talent rankings.

IMO, it would be gross negligence on Currie's part if he's not already putting out feelers through back channels.

I agree. Texas A&M, Ole Miss, Nebraska, possibly Notre Dame and Auburn. Vols need to start early this year

Get out of here with this nonsense

A good coach will come right in a win with the talent on this roster

Hell, even McElwain won the East his first year

Stop being afraid of change

I agree, actually. I say we can Butch this week, promote a suitable interim, and take Chip Kelly for the biggest porterhouse one can find.

I would bet the farm that the OP listened to XM radio this morning and heard Greg McElroy throw his support behind Jones.

The worst part to me is that we will have to pay him to leave town. A cost I'm willing to pay, but it still stings.

Pure garbage coaching.

Honestly all are to blame. Players shouldn't have been put in that position however they were and failed to execute. We had a chance yet there is plenty of blame to go around. I still support butch and our guys even the ones riding the pine. We lost. I want to see how we play Georgia lsu and nama
