Butch Jones accepts offer to become next CU HC per the Denver Post

[MSBuff]

Why is it that everything Dear Ol' CU tries to do ends up looking like someone giving birth to a Beer keg sideways?

I just wish this was not so true.

 

[Okie Buff]

Kiss my ass, sunshine. Many of us are happy and excited to get behind this new coach.

Players should be seen and not heard right now. Say what you will in private, but stay off the social media.

Players should be seen and not heard.

I would have to agree and quote Ben Franklin, "It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt."

:lol:

I honestly blame Butch Jones for this **** show. If the dude would just make the decision, he wouldn't be dealing with a 24/7 media frenzy.

 

[Wyo Buff]

I think you guys collectively have weak knees. It's only Wednesday. Let the guy leave Cincinatti with some dignity and respect for his players. He is trying to do this the right way. He doesn't owe you anything.

Definitely - he turned this into a huge circus. Between his trying not to be seen at CU, the bowl press conference, flying to Charlotte, and now this - he is the one that turned this into a feeding frenzy

I guess sharks shouldn't be blamed for being sharks and this place loves it crises and will create them when there is nothing new with which to pass the time. Hell, I love watching a good feeding frenzy which is probably why I am still reading this crap. It is entertaining!

Actually I meant to rep you for this post ... not the other one.

There are many culpable parties - of which Butch Jones is one.

I thought you were the one with weak knees, compliments of CU football.

Weak knee, my old friend. My right ones just fine.

The right way to handle it is to ignore the situation once it has become public? And to lash out at reporters that dare to ask the only question anyone wants to know? Interesting argument.

what a ****ing mess

Ken Broo ‏@kenbroo Butch Jones speaks tonight on #wlwt News 5 at 11p. No decision made, he says. News conference to explain everything tomorrow & other things

why summon the media to announce youre staying?

 

[White_Rabbit]

What the hell is he going to say tonight if there's a press conference tomorrow? Obviously he can't say anything useful tonight or it would negate the press conference...

 

[Plansit]

Flipping what Darth said: If you were the next head coach of CU, why would you hold a news conference in Cincinnati?

 

[Highlander27]

For ****s sake.

 

[d71c]

This is turning into a god damn nightmare.

 

[KDBuff]

This is absolutely ridiculous. "Look at me! Look at me!"

 

[Highlander27]

If this guy hates the pressure cooker now, he'll really hate it down the road.

Remember how stupid ASU looked last year during their coaching search? Yea, that's us.

Juice box, water bottle and food cart. What a trio.

 

[dinger]

I know it's hard not to look at this debacle and blame Bohn and CU, but I really think this has only spiraled into a circus because of the way Butch has handled it. Two press conferences, hiding behind a kitchen cart, a trip to Charlotte, now an interview on local media, and ultimately another press conference tomorrow. This is a case study in how to completely tarnish your brand in two time zones in the matter of 48 hrs. Butch, do yourself a favor -- shut up and stay out of sight until you have something to say about where you're coaching next year. Jeesh.

 

[96 Buff]

Some of you ****ers would find fault no matter how this transpired.

 

[KDBuff]

I'm not blaming CU in any of this...this is all Butch.

 

[buffs04]

This process inescapably conjures images of "we should have paid more attention to the warning signs during the hiring process..." two or three years from now. This absolutely reeks, IMO. We should move on now.

 

[Gold]

I stand behind foot cart. #doubleentendre

 

[leftybuff]

Dump this turkey...move on.

You may be right about this, but my stronger suspicion tells me he's committed to tying up loose ends, and it's more indicative of commitment to his sense of obligation and people. But I'm also wrong about **** all of the time, so who knows?
