I never said he was great, but if you really think we got a significant upgrade from him with Pruitt your head is buried deeper in the sand than our program currently is, and it’s not going to get better any time soon. I’m willing to bet Jarrett and Gilbert are as good as gone and likely Bailey as well. No high school football player will want to play for Tennessee after that embarrassment today and it is only going to get worse as the season goes on and more starters get banged upIf Butch Jones is so great why is he still working for free?

Maybe so, maybe even 20 years, but those that blame the five miserable years leading to the worst team in UT history under boy butch, would be correct when they attribute to him, a large amount of blame the year following his departure. How many seniors playing today were recruited and trained (for most of their career at UT) by boy butch? How about juniors? Sophomores? I'm betting we still have a good number of Life Champions.....just saying.I bet 10 years from now there will be some still blaming Butch and their ex wife for the state of Tennessee football.
