Dave Hart will never fire willingly fire him. That's a problem. But that being said, if Tennessee loses to Florida, the goodwill he gained from beating a mediocre Georgia team will completely evaporate. Especially if Georgia beats us this time around.
I'd say a competent athletic director fires him if he loses 3 of 4 during the Florida, Georgia, A&M, Bama stretch. But Hart will not unless forced.

I'm not a Hart fan, but Dave Hart has a financial responsibility to the University to not pay ridiculous buyouts unless it's absolutely necessary. Whether you like Jones or not, surely you agree that firing him without cause would be catastrophic at this point.
