Because he could hire a former head coach at an SEC school for pennies on the dollar

Probably because it's beneficial to have someone with Jones' expertise in an off field consultant role. Jones was a bad HC that failed at Tennessee, but he's not some Junior High gym teacher. He doesn't need to "help" Butch. Jones is going to get another shot somewhere as a HC and he isn't hurting for $35,000. Bill Belichick hired Bret Bielema in a similar capacity.
