The allegations against Butch Jones are damning, and nobody loves watch Tennessee fans squirm more than I, but this allegation is just that, an allegation. As of now it's hearsay evidence to be used in a civil suit. As an American, Butch Jones has a right to due process in the court of law, and we should give him that same benefit of the doubt in the court of public opinion until these allegations can be substantiated.

If they are true, he's a POS, but there's a chance they are not.......so slow down with the reactionary judgement.

You can take your presumption of Lyle "Butch" Jones innocence and shove it directly up your racist a-hole.

That won't fly in this guilty until proven innocent age that we live in.

If done in front of the team, it will get out soon. You can not suppress a statement like he allegedly made, with so many witnesses present.

It's a good thing the rant isn't a court of law and we can jump to whatever conclusions we want. Butch is obviously a thug piece of shite.

Nah, I say we bash on them relentlessly.

What does the NCAA rulebook say about these sort of institutional level cover ups of major crimes anyway?

I feel like an NCAA hammer will have to fall as well on this stuff.

This thread is fricking stupid. This would be fine if it wasn't all true.

Stop mocking the victims with this shite or I will be forced to use the RA button.

I don't presume his innocence, in the same way I don't presume his guilt. That's the whole point. None of us know for sure yet, and until these allegations are corroborated, it would be unfair to "presume" either.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, but leaning heavily towards sarcasm.

Too many witnesses and Butch fricked...just like he has been every year against Florida...he must be a real dumbass. I guess no one else wanted the job....and they wont want it now.

Seeing as how the percentage of college football coaches who have covered up rape allegations is higher than those of Muslims who are terrorists and priests who molest children, I'll just go ahead and assume the worst.

If he did it in front of the team, there's no way it wouldn't have leaked before now. NO POSSIBLE WAY.
