Butch's buyout is around 9 million.

There is no reason not to fire Butch now during the bye week and get someone as interim and get the coaching search started for the end of the year. We are in YEAR 5 and we shouldn't be putting games against South Carolina, Kentucky, and Vanderbilt in the "tossup" win column. IT'S YEAR 5. Those games should be automatic wins and we shouldn't be worrying about them. Smart has Georgia playing great football in year loving 2, there's no reason Butch should have a team this lovely full of 4 and 5 star talent with how long he has been there. Something needs to be done NOW.

Florida having an opening is a nightmare scenario for UT. Especially with a head start. John Currie needs to loving pull the trigger.

Tennessee’s staff has been complete poo poo at developing talent during Jones’ tenure and I’ve talked about it for years. It’s a huge issue. Tennessee has the biggest recruiting budget iirc In the country, and in-state talent has been improving over the last decade, especially in the middle Tennessee area. Recruiting ain’t the problem.

The frustration is understandable but where are they going to get the money? They need over $8mil to buy him out.

Tennessee athletics prints money. They can afford any buyout.

The only thing I can think of is that Currie is waiting to fire Butch and then introduce the new coach at the same time. That's the only way this makes sense.

What's real dumb? That Tennessee can't afford to pay someone a buyout? Or that they might be waiting to hire a new coach at the same time they fire the old one?
