The comments were not made by him, but he retweeted them.

Thanks....I'm old and don't understand this twitter universe.

A couple of the tweets he retweeted:

"That's twice in 12 months Butch jettisoned a coordinator who helped him get this job - a few weeks before NSD."

"not to mention Butch calling a timeout before a couple of 4th down plays vs FL that should've NEVER been called"

"If the Vols didn't think they were capable of winning a Natty with @UTCoachJancek why was he on staff to begin with???"

I think it makes it clear (as if there was any doubt) that this wasn't a "mutual" parting of ways. Janice was canned...which we knew, but still.

I saw those but I thought they were comments made by followers and not Jancek?

Up 21.....Hold on guys!!

Please explain?

The rumpur de jour is Shoop (been vetted) but if memory serves Shoop is a 3-4 guy.  Other rumours indicate possibly an ACC guy.  If that is true then I would go with Chizick, he may suck as a HC but I like his work as a DC

I would have no problem with that.

Not meant to be rustle your Jimmies but:
Jancek: Of course Butch, you have no responsibility in any of these losses. That chicken -shizzle conservative play calling didn't have no effect on my defense staying on the field most of the 4th qtr of those games. And you really had the team fired up and hitting on all cylinders against North Texas. How did my defense look against Bama and NW?.... I thought so. Who will be your scapegoat next year?
I am by no means a fan of Jancek. But I just gave him a good and applicable  retort for Butch. I'm sure this will be a gang up on Jancek thread. I think my points are valid though. I hope we get a great DC.

Butch is the boss and his 4 Mil salary is on the line....thus

Butch: Bye

If in fact Butch canned him.....and it's less than 4 weeks before NSD and this coming season being a pretty much make or break season.......I hope like heck Butch has his man and it's a UPGRADE.

Gosh help us if he goes on another one of his NATIONWIDE searches for a former MAC friend

I would've liked to have been a fly on the wall when this mutual decision was reached.

Same here:

Butch: John you do know we had OU beat and your defense couldn't stop Mayfield from beating our a$$...right?
Jancek: Yep

Butch: John you do know we had Florida beat for the first time in a decade and you couldn't get us a damn stop and on 4th and 14 you rushed 3 and let them complete and score a 65 yard winning TD....right? And I won't even bring up the 2014 Florida cluster.
Jancek: Yep

Butch: John, you do understand we had a 17 point lead at home against Ark and then their offense starting going through your defense like Grant going through Richmond.....right?
Jancek: Yep

Butch: Bye

This doesn't surprise me a bit......Reading things the past 3 weeks pointed to him winding up on the left coast. Now if he signs with another SEC team, I'll lose it!

I don't follow recruiting much at all....just don't put a lot of faith in 17-18 year olds when they verbal....They jump at the next flashy thing that comes along too many times. I usually (if it's ends well for us) get excited only on signing day and even then I wait until they are cleared and on campus. 100% of my recruiting info comes from reading these UT boards.

Most posters I respect on recruiting feel we will finish in the 13-17 range......I read this morning our composite star rating right now is ranked 13th. Whatever that means.

Real good hire IMO. Lots of connections in Florida and he did a good job holding The U together this season.

One word: Leader

I know Hugh Freeze....I can assure you he walks the walk. What you see is how he is......It helps in recruiting.

Do not take this wrong....

But being very religious in the living rooms of Grandmothers and Aunties goes a long way in helping the process. Now...with that said there are other factor$ too.

I watched every minute.....unreal comeback. That TCU QB had guts out the wazzoo.

Was that you that coined that phrase on their board? I thought that was very funny in a harmless football fan sort of way but they didn't seem to have a sense of humor.

LOL....I saw it too....but I can't take credit for it.

Those guys suffer from stuff shirt syndrome. (the northwestern fans that is)

Thus.....'Purple Vandy'

Actually.... even though we didn't go under center much we still were in a I formation look quite a bit. We had lead blockers and lined Hurd back behind Dobbs about 5 yards. Hurd is best when he's moving...not standing still. Wish we'd been doing it the past 2 seasons.

IMO, stupid to have it on NYE.....A lot of folks have to work and at night a lot of folks have to go drinking.

We ran some Pro-I today with success.....Bout damn time

Debord being a I Formation coach from way back must have slapped some sense into Butch.

There was 3 couples of us......we were there 4 nights and I think I got a total of 12 hours sleep the whole time. I was sick a week after getting home.

It was worth it.

I was there......and what a scene.

Saw some posts on the NW board that they had as much speed as we did.......Really?

Yes.....No. 5 is the all around best player in the country, IMO and should have won the Heisman. Henry is good but a lot of backs would be good running behind that Bama OL. IMO he's no better than Hurd. Henry is better in that he runs lower and behind his pads better than Hurd.

Iowa from now on needs to be invited to play in one of those December 21st bowls against a MAC team.

I can understand them not scoring much...their offense when they lost their QB was Mizzou bad....

I just can't believe their defense gave up that many points. Their defense must have tanked it knowing the O couldn't score.

Sutton gone...and needs to be. IMO, he protected himself this year and it showed. He will be a 3rd rounder most likely.

The other 2 need another year.
