Tennessee Vols: Surprise! Butch Jones Lied…..Again
By Zach Ragan

Tennessee Vols head coach Butch Jones is terrible with the small details.
For someone that loves to preach “details”, Tennessee Vols head coach Butch Jones sure is terrible with them.
Remember before the season started and Jones mentioned (many times) how his team opened the season with three games in 13 days?
Jones said he didn’t think it had ever been done before (it has been done many times before).
We then learned that Jones did it THREE times at Cincinnati.
Butch Jones: "We've got 3 games in 13 days, I don't know if that's ever been done."

Butch straight up lied, and he didn’t even bat an eye.
He lied again on Saturday night after Tennessee inexplicably lost to Kentucky.
Jones says he's "never been through a season like this in 30-plus years with so many games down to the wire"

When I saw this tweet I immediately tweeted that it needed to be fact checked. Brad Crawford of 247Sports quickly came to my rescue to disprove Jones’ idiotic statement.
Over last 7 games in 2011 season at Cincy, he was involved in 5 decided on final play or in fourth quarter. pic.twitter.com/BNGaRvRNYM

Those are just a couple of examples from Jones’ coaching career. Every coach has had seasons where there are a lot of close games.
(By the way, the margin of victory/defeat in three of Tennessee’s games this season was 35 points or greater.)
Jones is a straight up pathological liar at this point. But you probably already knew that after ESPN made fun of his lie about Shy Tuttle falling on a helmet (Jones immediately tipped that he was lying that day when he qualified his statement with “and this is the truth”).
Tennessee deserves better than a man that constantly distorts the truth.

John Currie needs to do the right thing and hand Jones a pink slip. It’s time to ship him out of Knoxville.
