Eric CainHOST
But what should get – and I was talking to my dad about this yesterday.
Eric CainHOST
Like, here's the difference in, like, during the Pruitt era, whenever you were having these quarterback conversations, or during the Butch era, you were having these quarterback conversations before Josh Dobbs took over.
Eric CainHOST
It's like – At least now you have a good defense.
Eric CainHOST
Now you have special teams that can truly flip the field and can be there for you.
Eric CainHOST
Now you have a really good run game.
Eric CainHOST
So you're a better football team, and you're more equipped now to win ugly than you were at any point in those times during the Pruitt era or the Butch Jones era.
Eric CainHOST
So if you win games like you won against Auburn, who cares? You won the football game.
Eric CainHOST
You only get 12 guaranteed football games a year.
Big Joe DubinHOST
Uh-oh, and a battle down in Louisiana, Louisiana versus Louisiana Tech.
Big Joe DubinHOST
So I watched, uh, Louisiana play Arkansas State the other night, and Butch Jones is the coach at Arkansas State.
Chase McCabeHOST
He is.
Big Joe DubinHOST
And every time they show him, he's yelling.
Big Joe DubinHOST
He's just yelling at somebody, and they lost, they lost a field goal with no time left to Louisiana, but you forget Butch Jones is still coaching in college football, at Ar- probably getting paid pretty well, too, at Arkansas State.
Big Joe DubinHOST
I just ...
Big Joe DubinHOST
And he's lost a lot of weight, and I'm like, "Is that Butch Jones?" It's like, that's Butch Jones.
Chase McCabeHOST
Yeah.
Brian RiceHOST
You don't...
Brian RiceHOST
Remember when Butch Jones said, "I'll never apologize for a win"? Do you remember who, who Tennessee beat when he said that?
Erik AingeHOST
I know someone terrible.
Brian RiceHOST
UMass.
Charlie CollierPANELIST
It was, uh, it was Parents' Day on campus, and it was one of the hotter games I've been to.
Brian RiceHOST
And-
Charlie CollierPANELIST
And the parents did not like my displeasure of one Butch Jones being expressed as loudly as it was.
Brian RiceHOST
Uh, you never apologize for a win.
Dave SchultzHOST
We do have some comments here.
Dave SchultzHOST
Hot take fire Butch Jones.
Dave SchultzHOST
I think that's a good football game.
Dave SchultzHOST
I don't I mean, you can't win them all.
13 MINS LATER
Dave SchultzHOST
Napier and the Cajuns in Jonesboro, I believe.
Dave SchultzHOST
Had a perfect drive.
Dave SchultzHOST
This would have been in Jonesboro, and it would have been Butch Jones' first year.
Dave SchultzHOST
So it's got to be 2021 or 2022.
Hondo CarpenterHOST
I met him y- many years ago when he was in college at Cincinnati.
Hondo CarpenterHOST
Many of you know Butch Jones, the head coach at Arkansas State now, used to be his coach at Cincinnati, and is one of my best friends.

They get mad when the other team is winning, and they get mad at their team when they're losing.
Erik GeeHOST
And some of the stuff that I heard about Butch Jones, man, I don't know that I'd ever repeat.
Erik GeeHOST
Even if you and I were having a beer and you're like, come on, what did they say about Butch Jones? I'm like, man, I don't know that I can go there, man.
Erik GeeHOST
I felt bad for that guy.
Erik GeeHOST
They were talking about all sorts of things he could do with animals and everybody else.
Andy StaplesHOST
I have a two-part trivia question for you.
Andy StaplesHOST
What do Butch Jones, Ed Orgeron, and Dan Mullen all have in common? Answer part one, they were all fired in the middle of the season.
Andy StaplesHOST
Oh, that is true.
Andy StaplesHOST
Answer part two, they were all fired in a season in which they lost to Kentucky.
Andy StaplesHOST
That is correct.
Andy StaplesHOST
Ed Orgeron was actually told the night before they beat Florida that he was fired.
Andy StaplesHOST
Butch Jones in Tennessee lost to Kentucky 29-26 in 2017 for only the second time in 33 years.
Andy StaplesHOST
Four weeks later, he was fired.
