4th and 14.
The bold means neither you or anyone can answer your question, which CLEARLY insinuates that Butch did something wrong! So mods please close this dumb thread! :salute:

Wow we got some testy posters today! If a thread doesn't interest you why can't you just go on to the next one?...You do know that it's not required to click on everyone of them and then leave a post that absolutely adds nothing to the conversation?

I agree improve when you can..but we really seemed to be close..and now we have some uncertainty...Sunseri looked like a really good hire and it was a disaster...Muschamp didn't do well at Auburn this year
While I have no idea what's going on, my gut says that there was some sort of personal disagreement here. I wouldn't say Jancek was the best DC in the nation, but he's done a very good job here. By the end of the season, I'd say our defense was around the top 10 - 15 in the nation. I don't think you simply give someone the boot on mere speculation that you can upgrade from the 10th best DC in the nation to the 8th best DC (or something like that).
That said, hope Butch has someone good lined up. I'm not sure I'm totally sold on Bob Shoop or if the rumors are true (of course, I didn't think the Jancek rumors were true either).
Most thought the hire was good at the time. After the NC State game it went sideways.
He was terrible but most loved his early press conferences. He talked a lot of smack about how good the defense was going to be and how they were picking it up and then reality hit.Many thought myself include that he was a 3-4 guy and the Vols had 4-3 personnel. It was a pretty bad fit. Dooley even tried to take over the D late in the season to "fix" it. The players just were always out of position and looked lost and it was basically the same guys Justin Wilcox had a pretty descent defense with the year before.
