This season will tell a lot about Butch. It's do or die time.

So if you had to choose one to take over for Miles which one do you pick?

Jones - He's proven he can rebuild from a hiroshima sized dumpster fire, take a bunch of true freshmen and make a bowl despite having the worst OL in football, a completely new OL and DL, and get better each year. His recruiting is stellar. He brings a lot of positive and creative energy to a program that needed it badly after the Kiff-Dooley years. His teams have been better every year despite the end results. Here's a hard example of that: going by memory the 2013 year defense was ranked in the 60s but in 2014 it was top 30 or so. However, that's happened all over the field.
The wins will come but so far he's had to put out the thermonuclear bomb that went off in Knoxville and clean up hasn't been easy. We are almost there tho. And so far he's done everything else right.

Butch is 0-2 against muschamp, and 0-1 against Dooley. Otherwise known as the two of the worst SEC coaches in the past decade.

So is that a vote for Mac?

You mean you want the guy who lost to an FCS opponent? Figures...that goes over well down there.

McElwain

Tough decision. Since neither is going to win the decision must be based on looks. Do you want a coach that looks like Sgt Carter from Gomer Pyle of a coach that looks like a chipmonk?

Easily Mcelwain. He hasn't been incredibly average in the SEC like Butch has been.

McElwain showed he could be successful by turning around Colorado State last year. They beat a 10-4 Utah State team by 3 points...no, wait...Utah State won that game.
No big deal...Utah State blew out UT by 31...oh...wait...UT won that game by 31.
Common opponents don't really matter...I'm sure that McElwain built a much better program in his 3 years at Colorado State than Jones has in his 2 years at UT.

As long as neither look like Helen Hunt ill be okay

So far it's too close to call. On those who gave a clear answer I've got it at about a 50-50 right now... Toss up.

You're comparing your program to Colorado State?
Posted on 5/8/15 at 3:37 pm to madmaxvol
Horrible comparison. You're saying TN is on the same level as a CSU with talent.
You guys really do have TNPTSD

And he's had so many chances, with comparable talent too

well he's 0-2, while zook's first 2 years went 2-0 against much better UGA teams at that.
