Title: So, Butch and Trooper got into it yesterday Post by: Volengineer on September 07, 2014, 03:45:36 EDT I wish Butch had put the beat down on him. I'm surprised it's not all over the news...

Title: Re: So, Butch and Trooper got into it yesterday Post by: Creek Walker on September 07, 2014, 08:04:31 EDT Btw, my interpretation of what others are saying about the Butch-Trooper photo should not be mistaken as a defense of Trooper. He's still an asshat and forever will be.

http://www.knoxnews.com/govolsxtra/football/butch-jones-was-making-a-point-to-trooper-taylor_35417834 Quote “Just for the record, Trooper Taylor is a friend,” Jones said of the Arkansas State cornerbacks coach and former Tennessee assistant under Phillip Fulmer. In a photo that appeared in Sunday’s News Sentinel, Jones and Taylor are seen pointing at each other on the field at Neyland Stadium following UT’s win over Arkansas State on Saturday. Jones appears to be scowling in the photo, but the exchange was a friendly one, he said. “It’s amazing, I look at him and say, ‘you guys got a really good football team’ and everybody blows it out of proportion,” said Jones, who said the hand gesture was simply used to make the point. “He was very complimentary of what’s going on here with everything, so it was good to hear from somebody who has coached here before that we’re getting it back.” The "Trooper Taylor is a friend" part is disappointing, but Butch is also good friends with Erik Spoelstra, so I guess the takeaway here is that our HBC will befriend pretty much any unsavory character that comes along. :laugh: Title: Re: So, Butch and Trooper got into it yesterday Post by: Volengineer on September 09, 2014, 12:24:39 EDT Bah! I don't believe that drivel from the mainstream "media."
Its obvious that Trooper was saying he was afraid Butch was going to whoop him in the parking lot and was pointing to said parking lot outside the stadium. Then Butch said, pointing at him, "Nah! I'm gonna do it right here!!" Yep, that's the way it went down...... :dude: |
