, literally came here to post something to this effect (edit: about you specifically). Many UT fans probably fall in this boat. They support the team but don't have full confidence in Botch. This season is his opportunity to win them back.

In November 2004, Tennessee Athletics unveiled its Master Plan for Neyland Stadium, which will serve as a long-term solution to the issues currently facing the facility and prepare it for its next 75 years of service.
Phase I of the Neyland Stadium Master Plan renovations, completed in 2006, included extensive infrastructure work for the entire stadium, renovation of the north lower concourse, addition of LED signage, permanent recognition of the retired numbers and national championship teams and construction of the 422-seat East Club.
The $27.4 million Phase II of the Neyland Stadium Master Plan was finished for the start of the 2008 football season. This phase included several elements aimed at enhancing the fan experience at Neyland Stadium while also significantly improving the gameday areas used by the football program.

Renovations to Neyland Stadium were completed in 2010, bringing to a close the first stage of renovations to Neyland Stadium that began following the 2005 season.
The largest phase of the Neyland Stadium Master Plan renovations began after the 2008 football season and were completed prior to the 2010 season. Phase III renovations included:
The primary source of funding for the project came from the addition of the West Club, East Club and Tennessee Terrace sections. Each phase of renovations is separately funded to ensure fiscal responsibility.
Visit the Tennessee Fund for more information, including photos, about renovations to Neyland Stadium.
Completed in 2009:
Renovation of the top level concourse of the west lower sideline
Removal of the scissor ramps leading to the west upper deck
Addition of elevators and stairwells on the west side to increase fan accessibility and improve traffic flow
Improvements to the west tower, including sky box and press center updates
Construction of the West Club, a primary funding source for renovations
Completed in 2010:
Creation of the Gate 21 Plaza
A brick and wrought iron facade along the north and west exterior of Neyland Stadium
Statue of General Neyland added to west side entrance
Creation of entry plazas
Addition of the Tennessee Terrace on the west upper deck sideline, a primary funding source for the renovations."
We had a rat-faced moron for AD, but he could raise money and no mistake.

College Football's Most Valuable Teams 2015: Texas, Notre Dame And ... Tennessee?
"...That’s not an especially new theme in Knoxville — Tennessee ranked seventh in value last year at $94 million, again thanks largely to a massive profit margin, and the school’s athletic department as a whole was 13th in profitability — but this year it was successful enough to push the team ahead of the likes of LSU (No. 4, $111 million), Michigan ($105 million), Georgia ($102 million) and Ohio State ($100 million).
College football teams obviously can’t be bought or sold, so there’s no use in considering what they might go for on the open market like we do with our NFL valuations. But they are of serious value to their universities, athletic departments, conferences and even local economies, which get a sizable boost from fans traveling to home football games.
We combine money generated in those four areas — university value, for example, consists of academic support in the form of football scholarships and direct university contributions — in the 2014-15 season to get a snapshot of just how valuable each team is. Revenue and expense data comes from annual financial reports made to the Department of Education; value to the local economy is measured by economic impact studies."

Why are some fans so interested in turning coaches on? Is this some weird fetish that is just now starting to reach mainstream sports discussion?

Week 1. Butch will be in defense mode, assisted by his chart.

I have already turned on Butch Jones, and he has to earn his way back in my good graces.

After blowing leads to Oklahoma, Florida and Arkansas last year, I was ready for him to go. I tapped the breaks after the way we finished the season, but I'm not sold on him, and I have doubts that he can ever take us to the next level.
