We've all heard the saying first impressions are everything. Well apparently, nobody knows that better than Tennessee head coach Butch Jones. According to the Knoxville News Sentinel, when Jones has recruits on the Tennessee campus for the first time, he drives them around in a foreign car that costs over $200,000. Jones recently spoke at Mercedes-Benz speaking engagement in Knoxville, Tn., and revealed that the car you drive as a college head coach makes an impact with impressing high school prospects.

"Kids judge you by your car," Jones said via the Knoxville News Sentinel. "It's crazy. I was joking with another fellow SEC coach because the SEC Network came in and did a feature," Jones told the crowd. "They first did a feature on his car. So when they came to Knoxville, they did a feature on my car. My SLS."

Jones, according to the Knoxville News' report, drives a Mercedes-Benz SLS, an insanely nice car that has a sticker price of $221,580 and features a 6.2 liter V-8 engine and butterfly wing doors that open vertically. A simple Twitter search for the car shows just how sweet this car really is.

Good for you, Butch. Jones was able to put together the No. 13 class in the country for 2016, and Tennessee's 2017 class is currently ranked No. 31 in the country according to 247Sports.
