Butch Jones serves as Head Coach for Arkansas State University's Football program in Jonesboro, Arkansas. Jones is in his fifth season at Arkansas State, where he has led the Red Wolves to three straight bowl games, including the 2024 68 Ventures Bowl title. A-State is one of just 18 Group of Six programs to earn at least three consecutive bowl bids through the 2025 season.
This year’s squad became the only team in the nation to start 1-4 and finish bowl eligible, just the 13th FBS team to do so since 2003. The Red Wolves also became the 12th FBS team to win three one-point games in a season and the 36th ever to win back-to-back one-point contests. Under Jones, A-State earned eight wins in 2024—tied for the third-highest total in the program’s FBS era. Led by 2023 Sun Belt Freshman of the Year Jaylen Raynor, the Red Wolves have produced 48 players with 50 all-conference honors in Jones’ tenure.
