Tennessee coach Butch Jones may enter his fifth season in Knoxville on the hot seat, but there’s no denying his success on the recruiting trail.
The Vols currently rank No. 5 nationally and tops in the SEC for the 2018 recruiting class according to 24/7 Sports. Jones appeared on “The Erik Ainge Show” on Sports Radio WNML in Knoxville Wednesday morning to discuss what factors have led to his recruiting success.
“I think it’s the way I was growing up,” Jones said. “I grew up in a law enforcement household, so I was able to watch my father from afar and how he dealt with people and the different things he had to in his life.
