The calls for Tennessee head coach Butch Jones to be fired are getting louder.
On Saturday, one fan took to the internet to send his message by posting a satirical GoFundMe fundraising campaign calling for the fifth-year head coach to be fired.
Today, another fan decided to take things to a new level by vandalizing The Rock on Tennessee’s campus to try to get the attention of athletic director John Currie.
As you can see below, the rock reads “Do the right thing Currie. Fire him.”

Saturday’s 41-0 loss to Georgia was about as ugly as it’s been under Jones, but losing the game versus Florida on a last-second touchdown is another blow that has contributed to Jones’ downfall.
At this point, one has to hope that the team is able to come together to pull out a victory over South Carolina on Saturday if they want any chance of quieting the critics.
