 Butch is 4-17 after yesterday against top 25 teams that were top 25 at time the game was played.

Well one of two things will happen.

Plan A....  We will recover nicely, and win at least 7 of our next 9 games.  I think we have the talent for this.  Heck we could win 8, but the ball bounces funny, etc.

Plan B.... Or the wheels could come off, we lose 5 of 9, Butch is fired, and we face a messy rebuild next year.

I am going with plan A until it's no longer possible. 

Some will be overjoyed at Plan B because they hate Butch that much and think a 6-6 season is worth it to get rid of him. I will never take that defeatist attitude.  Hell...the next guy might be worse anyway.

And in before anyone can say it...yes, Plan A assumes that Butch makes better game day decisions down the stretch.  I actually think this is possible.   

Whatever the case, I'd hate to see the team give up.  Whatever anyone thinks of Butch, his teams have always played hard, with the sorry exception of Vandy last year, and maybe a few of the late season games his first year.

Actually it could.  For instance, Tennessee is one of only two programs that has never lost 8 games.  Even Dools didn't.   

I think he would have, if cheney had not replaced him for UK game.
