Butch Jones: 7

Now this is where things get interesting. Jones is one of the better coaches in the SEC, but he has yet to produce anything tangible.

Last year was supposed to be the year for the Volunteers, and they went 9-4 with two losses coming to South Carolina and Vanderbilt.

Jones is now 30-21 in four years at Tennessee. And with all that they’re losing from last season on both sides of the ball, including quarterback, Joshua Dobbs, it’s difficult to see the Vols being better in 2017.
