University of Tennessee football coach Butch Jones might want to avoid any Food Lion shops in and around Knoxville for a while.
Jill Jelnick, a sports reporter at WRCB, posted a picture of a cake spotted at a Food Lion. The cake had a not too subtle message directed at Jones and Tennessee.
Even Food Lion is taking a stance on the current situation in Knoxville… #Vols #ToughCookie pic.twitter.com/zNyM5yodFt

Tell us how you really feel, would you?
The Volunteers are 3-3 with an 0-3 mark in SEC play. With top-ranked Alabama looming on Saturday, neither of those marks figure to improve. Since Jones took over at Tennessee, the Volunteers have a 33-24 record and are 14-21 in conference play. So, Jones was already very much on the hot seat.
The fact that pastries are now calling for his job certainly won’t make the seat any cooler.
