I know the league seems to be making fun of him a lot, but that's par for the course. What do the Vol faithful think about him?

I'm fairly certain V&S was off the Butch wagon before the end of last season, much less this season.

Butch is a solid recruiter but he's not set the world on fire with his game day coaching ability.

He lost me in 2015. He lost 99% of us on this board after Bama and SC. He lost Prof and Walt after Vandy.


Lyle is done, it's over. The only thing that can save him now is an SEC East title in 2017 (which won't happen), and that's only gonna get half the fanbase back, at best.


He lost me forever. And it's not just his coaching record, it's his cliche ridden pressers and his smug attitude. He's never taken responsibility for any of the numerous errors he's made. NEVER. And in my mind, that's unforgivable.

I'm 99% off the bandwagon, but with our record before he came in I don't think he's done poor enough to warrant a firing after two 9-4ish seasons. He is the reason that 9-4 this season is considered underachieving where 3 years ago it would be celebrated.

I have no faith he can ever do any better than a 9-4 type season, but I think he deserves one more shot.

If he can get 10 wins next season he would warrant another shot after that to see if he can win a title.

If either of those two things don't happen the next two seasons (10 wins next year) or (title in 2018) then he should be let go after whichever happens first.

He lost me after the SC game this year. He can recruit, but he's a son of a bitch in doing it by promising kids a spot and then leaving them right before signing day.
He has no idea what he's doing as a HC & I'm ready for him to go

poor UT. that team has layed more eggs this year than LSU. almost 700 yds on aggie and lose. man, that sucks. and, of course, the Vandy thing.

in the first year forever they beat both UGA and UForfeit and they bomb against the easy teams.
