The 10 most ridiculous quotes of the Butch Jones era | Kentucky Sports Radio

We have to beat them.

“I thought we did all the things it takes to play winning football except one element, and that’s score touchdowns.”

to me this is the one that will live on as his legacy long after Coach Gruden runs through the T as our next Head coach

"very, very"

everyone has their favorites. mine was the opening line of the press conference after florida loss in 2014. its on youtube. look it up.

"we have to control the controlables and the things that we can control"

what the heck does that even mean?

His dumbest, more divorced-from-reality statement is all the way down the list at #10. He's made statements that have gotten more attention and are probably funnier, but the statement that shows he truly doesn't "get it" is #10. There are at least 7 seasons within the last 20 years that were better than 2015 and 2016.

How about a list of all the words/phrases he just overuses:
- Individuals
- Resiliency
- "It all goes back to..."
- "That's a byproduct of..."
- Complimentary football
- Competitive depth/competitive character

I love how he starts almost every sentence with...”well, then again”....doesn’t matter if it’s the first question he’s asked or what the question is...he is a dumas.....

Referring to yourself in the third person might not make you a psychopath, as KSR suggests, but it does show a certain detachment from reality. Butch appears to fit that category.
