Saban: Butch Jones is an off-the-field coach for us, he does many things for me personally

quote:

“He’s an off-the-field coach for us. He does a lot of things for me personally as a special assistant in terms of evaluating certain things on practice film and evaluating a lot of organizational things internally here. He’s done a really good job for me, and I really like having him be a part of our staff. He’s done a really good job.”

So, why hasn’t Jones left for a better job elsewhere like many Saban assistants eventually do? Saban didn’t want to speculate on that:

“I think that’s something you probably should ask him. We’re happy to have him here. He seems to be pleased to be here. We’re excited to have him be a part of our staff. But I think you’d have to ask him why he chooses to do what he does professionally.”

This one's obvious
Being errand boy for Saban is way less stressful than his last job and he gets to watch his new employer wreck the place that fired him annually

Alabama, rehabbing derelict SEC coaches since 2007.

Shouldn't be long before Butch is ready to be released back into the wild.

Are you really worried about Butch Jones? ??

Although the pic works perfectly with the quote by Saban, this has to be from his days at UT given the Tennessee license plate on the car. It ain't really Saban's Mercedes.

He's obviously content to collect his $8.2M from UT and be Saban's step and fetch for now. His buyout ends in Feb 2021.

Tennessee paying the man who fetches Saban's coffee.

Is he still collecting a check from UT? Dooley as well, and the AD?

His job at bama is to not pursue any other coaching opportunities until the last buyout check is received.

Wow. Saban has so little respect for Jones that he can barely be assed to come up with some legitimate job description for him besides "bitch boy."

Buddy, if you can't even enjoy a light-hearted Butch Jones thread without getting in your feelings about Bama, it may be time to take a break

We pay him to be Saban’s b!tch......just like when he was our coach. Just looking at him you can tell he loves the pecker pops.
