This is the conundrum we find ourselves in

[CountVolcula]

With Harts decision to give Jones an extension, we will owe Jones a bunch if he's fired

But now, he's backed himself into a corner. If he fires parts of his staff, he may not get a great replacement due to the fact he's on borrowed time. Not many coaches will come here with the possibility of having to find another job in a year

So, it would seem we are stuck with his BSIA as long as he is here, which isn't getting it done

It seems we either spend the money to buy him out, or wallow in mediocrity for the remainder of his tenure. You can say that it's expensive to get rid of him now, but you might lose that much in revenue over that time. A Catch 22


Either way, we are what we are, a poorly coached team with great talent

He says he needs one more class. I guess we're all gonna get to see.

Our current class is ranked 16th I believe..

For now

Negative recruiting about to kick into overdrive

"One more class"...to "buy" 3 more years of "we're still a YOUNG Team"

 

[gasguy98]

We could go after Bobby Petrino?

I'd be willing to bet he loses some of those based off of the product on the field. Terrible coaching.

Great talent? I guess you mean the QB that can't throw, the receivers that can't catch, the great linebacking corp, the great defensive backs and the magnificent offensive line (though they gave that great QB plenty of time tonight).

He has said a lot of things in 3 years. This no more believable than the next. That in regards to him being able to anything with it.

I'd be surprised if he finishes in the Top 30

This is what happens when you hire a guy that has never been a head coach or head coordinator in a major conference.

Butch will close out the last half of the year and slide into the bowl on the back of wins against bad teams, and everyone will be saying LOOK OUT FOR TENNESSEE in 2016 lol what a joke this is.

Don't blame a kid for being bad, when they have bad parents


Two top 5 classes not being coached up

Maybe you're right. Maybe Jones can't recruit as well as his fanboys suggest.

So Jones can coach but cant recruit.

Sounds like a circle jerk.

They can't have it both ways?

There's plenty of talent there. It's being mismanaged.

Count when we finally get to run CBJ out, Hart has to go with him. He cannot be allowed to hire another coach for any sport at UT.

So true
