Considering the talent he had at UC, I think he did great and so do the folks at Purdue, Colorado and Tennessee. I think there's evidence that all three programs offered him jobs. He never had the talent of Connor Barwin, Tony Pike or Zach Collaros. I prefer Butch to any of UT's previous candidates and if the text messages from my UC friends means anything, the Vols made a great hire. One said that they'd no longer talk to me since my school stole their coach. They wouldn't have said that if it was Dave Shula

Collaros played 2 full seasons at QB for Jones. (2010 and 2011)

UC also had 2 players drafted in the 2nd round, 1 in the 3rd, and 1 in the 4th last year.

That's crazy.

How many coaches have been the head coach at 4 different BCS schools?

Re: 2012 UC Football Official Thread

Yep just saw the tweet. Man Whit Babcock is earning his paycheck. To get this done in this amount of time is impressive.

Crazy to think we just upgraded our head coach through all of this.

That's an amazing hire. Why did he want to leave the B12 for UC?
