Is Butch Jones in legal trouble at Tennessee?

Is Butch Jones in a huge amount of trouble at Tennessee?

Well, if the civil charges against him are true in a latest case, then yes.

Apparently, the Volunteers head coach called Drae Bowles – the player who helped a woman after she was allegedly raped by two teammates – and told him he had “betrayed the team”. He later called to recant, but it doesn’t change the fact that he initially did it.

Bowles had already been assaulted by teammate Curt Maggitt as retribution for his brave decision, according to the Tennessean.

This accusation comes just one day after Jones and his fellow UT coaches called a press conference to say how troubling all the accusations about the players were.

BOTTOM LINE: If Butch Jones knew about the rape and then knew about the assaults on Bowles, then he should be fired.
