You’d think schools would learn by now.
The phrase “brick by brick” is off the table for social media teams, especially throughout the SEC. That’s thanks in large part to the way Butch Jones was mocked for the phrase during his time at Tennessee.
Well, apparently Auburn didn’t get that memo. As you can see below, they tweeted it out as players begin spring workouts:

Naturally, they were mercilessly trolled in their mentions for invoking the phrase now connected infamously to the Jones era on Rocky Top:

Is this the cryptic tweet that you've hired Butch Jones?

Now, we just have to wait to see if Bryan Harsin compliments his players’ 5-star hearts or pulls any other Butch Jones-isms out of his hat.
