Our old friend Butch is out at Tennessee.

Coach Lester I am sure is on Tennessee's short list.

This actually might be a pretty quiet year in the MAC in terms of bigger programs poaching coaches. I don't see Solich going anywhere.

Plus...Tennessee has Brady Hoke stepping in as interim. They're all set!

WMU never beat Butch Jones. The losses in 2007 & 2008 were particularly tough to accept.

Me too, but he got results (at least at CMU and UC).

Hate that a$$hole. Still have picture in head of him taunting J Simmons when he got kicked out of game on totally BS personal foul that changed game.

Yep. His infamous words (read his lips) to Jamarko as Simmons left the field were..."See ya fu@&#*"! Well Butch, on behalf of Jamarko, right back at you!

That's exactly why I hated him so much. Classless clown of a coach.

He always rided Kelly’s coattails. Super overrated.

I bet he winds up at Miami or Ball State.

Yeah, Road those coattails to the millionaires club

I would love the chance to beat up on a Jones-led team.

Yep, same thought I had when I heard this news.

Not likely he ends up in the MAC anytime soon. He’s owed 8 million over 4 years....unless he gets a new coaching job.

He'll end up as assistant or Conf USA/AAC job. Depends how his buyout is written

Looks like Tennessee is going after Schiano. Vol fans are not thrilled.

If they give him time, he will do better than Jones, that's for sure.

Bielema out at Arkansas and Sumlin out at Texas A&M.

Schiano would be the perfect hire at Tennessee IMO. They’re nuts if they think they can get anyone better.

Well, he is kinda.... butch. :)
