October 6, 20179 yr Logan Lutrell @logan_lutrell 24m24 minutes agoMore Is it bad that I wake up every morning waiting on an ESPN notification saying that Butch Jones is fired? Holden @holden_mcghee05 26m26 minutes agoMore It's Friday and Butch Jones is still our head coach..This life just isn't worth living Aaron Turnington @XCoachTx 1h1 hour agoMore Even tho there was some buzz...it is October 6, 2017 and Butch Jones is still the head football coach at the University of Tennessee. Shaee Flatt @shaee_flatt 2h2 hours agoMore Shaee Flatt Retweeted Shaee Flatt Like I said... it's now almost 12:30 Eastern time and Butch Jones is still employed. He's coaching against South Carolina. Shaee Flatt added, Shaee Flatt @shaee_flatt Apparently I'm going to wake up tomorrow and Tennessee isn't going to have a football coach. I'll believe it when I see it!
October 6, 20179 yr Author Those are just a few that are able to be copied here. Search Butch Jones or Fire Butch on Twitter and it has blown up this week.
October 6, 20179 yr The first social media effort to fire a coach that I recall was "fireronzook.com" at U. of Florida.
October 6, 20179 yr It's funny because a lot of the people tweeting can't even remember a time when Tennessee was any good.
October 6, 20179 yr They'll fire him the week before KY and Vols will be inspired just like the Fulmer firing.
October 6, 20179 yr Author If they lose at home to South Carolina next week he could be gone before the Alabama game. If I was the AD I'd make him stay until at least after that game and let him take his whipping before firing him. Of course as @Hellcats said, that would mean firing him right before the UK game and means the team could come in all fired up again.
