Butch Jones

He is the Head Football Coach at the University of Tennessee

Lyle Allen "Butch" Jones Jr. is a seasoned American football coach with a wealth of experience at both the collegiate and professional levels. Born on January 17, 1968, in Michigan, Jones has built a reputation for his leadership and strategic acumen on the field. He is currently the head coach at Arkansas State University, where he continues to develop and mentor young athletes. Jones' coaching career spans several prominent programs, including his time as a special assistant to the head coach and offensive analyst at the University of Alabama from 2018 to 2020, where he contributed to the success of one of the most dominant teams in college football.

Before his tenure at Alabama, Butch Jones served as the head coach at the University of Tennessee from 2013 to 2017. During his time with the Volunteers, Jones led the team to three consecutive bowl victories, including the 2016 Outback Bowl. His ability to recruit top talent and develop players was evident, as he helped Tennessee return to national prominence. Despite facing challenges in the highly competitive Southeastern Conference (SEC), Jones' leadership and commitment to the program left a lasting impact on the Volunteers' football culture.

Jones' coaching journey also includes successful stints at the University of Cincinnati from 2010 to 2012 and Central Michigan University from 2007 to 2009. At Cincinnati, he led the Bearcats to two Big East Conference championships and multiple bowl appearances, solidifying his reputation as a coach capable of turning programs into contenders. His time at Central Michigan was equally impressive, as he guided the Chippewas to two Mid-American Conference (MAC) titles and a bowl victory, further establishing himself as a rising star in the coaching ranks.

A former player himself, Butch Jones played college football at Ferris State University, where he was a running back and wide receiver. His experience as a player has informed his coaching philosophy, emphasizing discipline, hard work, and attention to detail. Over the years, Jones has earned respect for his ability to connect with players and build cohesive teams. His extensive coaching resume and proven track record make him a sought-after figure in the world of college football.
