His "All that’s left is to adopt that championship mentality.", is true and critical.

By all accounts Butch Jones is making progress on changing the "culture" inside the program, and that was evident during this past spring.

While they are not long removed from a decade of success, there has been a "coordinated effort" on their largest message board to make sure the culture surrounding the program is as negative as possible.

While Butch Jones is on record saying that "culture changing" not "wins" would be his focus , there is no doubt that winning a few more games this year would help their cause, but this is a much, much tougher, deeper SBC than their previous HC had to deal with.

Not sure there is a "bad team" in the SBC, and sure there are a bunch of good one, and more importantly some of their fan bases have developed a "championship mentality " in the "culture" that surrounds their program.

They have above average skill players on offense, if they can generate a decent running game they will be a load for most of the teams on their schedule.

TE Emmanual Stevenson( back from an injury), WR Corey Rucker( back from South Carolina), WR Jefferson Foreman (hopefully back healthy) , and RB Brian Snead (Hopefully back health) are all talented enough to garner post season accolades, and will make whoever their QB is job a lot easier, "IF" the offensive line play does not "destroy" this season .
