I was referring to news that came out last night in regards to gruden...saying his wife wants to come back home, and that gruden is sending out feelers for his staff. There is definitely interest between gruden and UT, etc...I could care less about the bobo crap cuz I know that's a damn lie

Yep. The house hunting stories have legs. Haven't heard anything about staff.

So are you saying if someone told you information in confidence you'd run to a message board and post for all to see? Just curious.

Trick question. I could say no, and prove I have character. But, if I say yes, will you post the info??? :question:


Hmmmmm.......

=ericberry4heisman;14301733]I just want to say this: I started out thinking there was zero chance of us landing Jon Gruden. I heard something good, which I posted the other night, then heard it again from someone else the next night. My hope rose to maybe like 5%.

That being said, I wanted to believe more, which is why I've been in this thread non stop. So I sought out DTO last night.

After speaking with DTO.. I'm at least 50-50 that this gets done, maybe more. I believe the info is accurate and if the info is accurate AND doesn't change, look out. My biggest worry is something changing at the last moment or something.

It's been said many times by Boro, let's just sit back and see what happens. No one is in the thread saying 100% that Grudens going to be the coach. But there is a chance he will be, so let's enjoy the



When this thread started again I said No Way would I get sucked in but I'm all in now! I believe we are going to make him say no and as a fan that's all I can ask for..
Appreciate all info, this place is at least fun and pleasurable to read. The RF was so miserable I actually went 2 weeks without visiting. So until we hear otherwise, I'll be right here!! GBO

I can confirm house hunting is a go. Rudder Ln was the scene. I got this info 3rd hand from a confident source who goes by CTV in the underground world of coaching searches. If he says it, you can take it to the bank. Just wait till next week though so the check don't bounce.

You're really not getting the response you're looking for so why continue? You just enjoy playing with yourself?

Wouldn't it be the ultimate punch in the sack if Gruden moved to Knoxville and didn't take the job.

We play Methodist College out of Fayetteville NC Saturday. It's our homecoming.

I'm going to Google their head coach and start candidate thread on him. The mediocrity loving horde outside of the Gruden thread will absolutely love him.

Is Gruden really the coach everyone thinks he is? Don't get me wrong the man knows football and is from the Holmgren tree of coaching which produced a lot of good coaches. However the super bowl team in Tampa was stacked pretty good when he arrived there. They didn't have a great QB but that defense was amazing. One could say he came in and won with Dungy's players, which is still impressive to win a super bowl but it's not like he had to build the team.

I never start threads, I just wanted to see what everyone thought about this. And I'm not trying to hate on Gruden, I think he is a good coach, I just don't know if he is as good as people make him out to be. Also I do not think we have a shot at getting him to Knoxville other than when he comes to visit his kid.

Sorry I didn't even see the Jon Gruden thread, If you want to merge it go ahead. Guess I probably should of looked around before starting it. Another reason I don't start threads.
