Butch Jones (Evaluation)
Butch Jones placement here is a result of the lack of longevity that those ahead of him possess. Entering the 2015 season, his team is primed to determine who wins the SEC East.
While not in a likely position to win the division just yet, Jones has righted ship at Tennessee. Where he falls in the power rankings after the season could shift very quickly. But he could also fall back if McElwain or Stoops have a tremendous year.
Odds are Jones, if he stays at Tennessee, will continue to slowly climb the power rankings. Until he has the longevity or one of the men ahead of him retire, though, this may be a realistic placement.
