Follow up question though: If UT fails to produce next season, do you still consider Butch a good hire or just another in a string of bad hires following letting Fulmer go?
Good Question. This is the judgment year. He gets free passes for his blunders so far (assuming he learns from them) If we win 7-8 games next season, most will realize that he is a above average recruiter, a decent coach, and someone who embraced the players, program, and fanbase as best he could. But one that cannot get the program to where our expectations are (IMO: be in the top 3 in the east every year, win the east 1 out of every 3 years, SECC 1 every 4-5 years, mentioned in playoff contention) etc. He will not be considered a bad hire, and he didn't do anything to intentionally screw up the program like Dooley and Kiffin did. Id say a solid hire who stocked the cupboard for the next guy but just couldn't get it done in the way we wanted to.
