Dennis Dodd of CBS published an article questioning whether Butch Jones has been underrated in the job he has done at Tennessee. I encourage you to go read it first, so you can see some of the things he says about Jones.
On the whole, the case Dodd makes is built on a house of cards. But let’s dissect it. First, I want to start with simple factual inaccuracies.
Derek Barnett was selected 14th in the 2017 NFL Draft, not 25th. Tennessee’s former running back is Jalen Hurd, not “Jalen Heard.” Those are mistakes that would be unacceptable in a 100-level journalism class.
