*Three seconds after conference*
Butler: "Who was that idea asking questions?"
Gettleman: "Which one?"
Butler: "The one with the goofy hair and the slides with socks?"
Gettleman: "That was Joe Person, Butler, and be careful when you say his name. Word has it, if you say it three times in a row, he'll appear from a hallway and walk in to you while looking at his phone."

Why did Vernon pick jersey no. 92? "Cause that’s what they had left."

[TheWiz]

Things I picked up... 

He's from a small town in Mississippi about 13,000 people. 

Excited about getting around the other guys on the line to learn from them. Said that he plans to be in "His pocket." (KK Short). 

Described himself as respectful and easy going. 

Owns about 30 pair of Jordans. 

Was a fan of Baltimore Ravens because of Ray Lewis. Was a big fan of his. 

Could have gone to a few big schools, Mississippi, Ole Miss, but picked LA Tech because he felt like it was where he was supposed to be. 

They had a SuperBowl party at his church back at home. 

Seems like a really good, family oriented, kid. But he also has a coolness and a confidence about him too. Kind of has the temperament of Devin Funchess in his interviews... except his slightly more polished in his answers.

Vernon Butler excited about working with such accomplished DTs, think he'll fit right in.

Butler is a humble, soft spoken guy. Certainly looks the part. Just wants to learn, do what coaches ask.

New Panthers DT Vernon Butler is a big sneakerhead. He has about 30 Jordans. His most beloved kicks are the Balenciagas he was wearing today
