FLASHBACK to March 2016  https://twitter.com/CoachButchJones/status/705177707131379712

*2 of the 3 coaches in this tweet are unemployed today

"Workers from Sycamore Sign Service removed the image of former Tennessee coach Butch Jones from the back of the stadium’s video board on Monday and replaced it with an image of Wilson, the former UT linebacker.

All three images on the video board will be replaced, but Jones’ was the only one swapped out Monday. The project will continue throughout the week. The images are visible from outside the stadium."

if Butch asks for it, Tennessee will give it to him and he can hang it down in his mancave, or in the garage next to the beer refrigerator.  Might be a little big and cover the floor, but those are just details.  Be a good test to see how much his wife loves him...

to Japan, where it is being turned into the biggest origami peace crane of all time. It will be floated out to sea with candles in the nostrils to ward off evil. Princess Mononoki and her citizen suitor will be secretly married at sunrise. Over time it will regenerate the country's dying offshore coral reefs.

God what a horrible HC hire Jones was.  SOOOOOOO glad we're Michigan and make sure our coaching choices arent disasters like he was.  Would sure hate to ever have to go through that embarrassment.

The undershirt hanging out of Hoke's sleeves wasn't discussed nearly enough during his tenure. How the hell do you leave the house looking like that? How does someone making $2m a year not have someone in their ear saying "hey, stop looking stupid on national television".

in case anyone really cares. I've known Butch since high school, he was our quarterback when I was in 7th or 8th grade. Very small town where everyone knows everyone on the shores of Lake Michigan. He was recently seen back at home in Michigan, visiting family. He stopped by a local shop owned by one of my best friends, and said he wasn't looking to coach at all this season, and will wait until another opportunity comes along. All jokes aside, he really is a decent guy, just couldn't coach in the Big Time....
