Football
Butcher was a prominent football player for Robert Neyland's Tennessee Volunteers from 1925 to 1928. Butcher was selected for a 1920s All-Tennessee football team.[3]
1927
Butcher was selected All-Southern at the center position in 1927.[4] His play against Vanderbilt helped secure the spot, as he outplayed Vandy center Vernon Sharpe, who arguably had the better season.[5] One of the All-Southern teams was to face an all-star squad of Pacific Coast players, and as a result the basketball team took a significant hit from the loss of its captain Butcher.[6]

gollark: It's using SQLite's parameter binding thingy.
