Butch Jones Poses With Miss Tennessee

If you were to hold a popularity vote in the state of Tennessee, there’s a very good chance that Butch Jones would come way the winner.

The head coach of the Vols, who is set to begin his third season with the team, has brought a renewed energy to Rocky Top that has energized the players, the program and the fan base.

Essentially, Jones is king in Tennessee.

And sometimes it’s good to be the king.

Jones, speaking at the 103rd meeting of the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce & Industry in Nashville, crossed paths with the sitting Miss Tennessee and took time, as always, for a photo op.

Check out some other famous folks that Jones has posed with over the past couple of years.
