LOL... I hope you don't actually believe that. Jones is a middling mid-major coach at VERY best. His results were primarily due to a rare group of UT bound recruits that fell into his lap. If he were any kind of coach at all... there was at least one and probably 2 East titles in that group.Why did Butch Jones get us so close, where Dooley and Pruitt didn't?
He was the best coach of the three. Simple as that. This answer will hold true after Heupel has been added to the list and is gone. Butch will learn to not say goofy things and win football games at the same time.
Butch Jones' coaching is MUCH more reflected by his last two years than his first 3.
