piss off...i pay with the same kind of money you do. i paid for an undergrad and masters at UT and have paid for season tickets for the last 13 years. if i'm not happy about the lack of support for our football program by the UT administration I can choose to not support them with MY GD MONEY.

Chill out, man. We do not talk like that on this board. Show some respect.

I'll get behind butch, but it sure feels like we're settling...yet again. Hart is a veteran at this. I really thought he'd pull out an ace from that sleeve of his.

What does thinking this way do for you or any other Vol fan? Nothing.

It means I'm not alone thinking this is the biggest BS hire in UT football history. When you have UT legends all over the place disapproving this supposed hire, that's all I need to hear. The spread won't work in the SEC, his parents failed at life naming him their kid "Butch", & we will continue to be the laughing stock of the conference as long as he's here.

Spread doesn't work an urban Meyer won a national title. Debunked. Legends were split on Dooley also. He has virtually the same résumé as Charlie strong.

I with Drizz, just like my boy Troy Fleming & other former Vols have said the last 24 hours "This guy is garbage".

What/when/where did Troy Fleming and other Vols say anything about Jones as HC?

Debunked by who, you? It was obvious what the spread did for Urban Myer when Tebow left, not a damn thing except run him out of town. As far as the opinions of former UT players, they were behind Dooley publicly but I promise you 90% of them couldn't stand him. They wanted him to succeed yes, but after he run off Berry & other instances of him treating former players like crap they weren't sad to see him go. Just goes to show you something about the man's true character & not the one he always preached about.

I want Kirby. I hate the spread offense.

Really? Chaney has basically been running the spread for the last three years.

Here you go... "Butch jones or kirby smart? Please not even a close race..." & "Give me smart or give me death lol". Is that good enough for you?

Yes, they are complaining about a guy that has won or shared four conference championships in the six seasons that he's been a head coach. Also complaining about a guy that won nine games this season with 65 first or second year players. Terrible hire. That Kelly guy up at ND was a terrible hire too when he first got the job in South Bend.

Jones is ten times the coach Dooley will ever be.
I keep thinking Butch Davis instead of Jones. Lol
