Butch Jones is now the third coach to leave Nick Saban’s rehab at the University of Alabama with a blessing.
After the likes of Lane Kiffin and Michael Locksley both landed head coaching jobs, Jones has been hired as the man at Arkansas State University. He spent three seasons as an offensive analyst and personal assistant to Saban. Jones enjoyed a Southeastern Conference Championship in 2018, three victory cigars over Tennessee, and being around players that grew to love him.
As much as the Crimson Tide and its fan base loved Jones, his heart was bigger for the program.
