Official Jon Gruden Thread 34

[VolInNorthCack]

I'm having it sanitized and polished after it was loaned to Ape. It will be ready for the big announcement.

better let the CDC take a look at it too.

I feel like I am watching an episode of Lost. Not sure whats real and whats going on in dreamland.

They could both drive to Bristol faster.

Fuente could have been in DC recruiting yesterday, however I think it's highly unlikely

 

['Boro-vol]

Listening to Basilio Show and every single person he has on there thinks there is just no way Gruden is coming. Even going as far as saying TN could have reached out to Schiano, etc. in the last few days... I swear I go from He's Coming 100% to $#@^* he isn't coming every 5 minutes! KILLING ME!

Maybe turn off sports radio and listen to a little Enya, or maybe some Kenny G. You're a little high strung.

If I remember correctly Hargis’ article did not say we had him. Only that he was interested and Gruden was talking to potential staff members. (Sound familiar)

I believe he was right then. The guy is an old school journalist.

This is correct. Hargis is not going to write it unless he is sure. He had facts last time and he could have proved it but he took the heat and kept his sources quiet. I don't know anything else about this whole situation but I know Stephen Hargis and if he says it gets my attention.

Soon!

Do some of you guys even listen to yourself lol? Why would our AD be flying all the way to DC to interview a S&C coach? IMO Currie is probably interviewing other coaches, either out of respect, or for backup plans if the Gruden deal falls through.

Just the way Currie wants it lol

Basilio says he has 100% proof Gruden has contacted Blackburn for his opps guy and Dale Jones among others.

 

[VFLnSFD]

My brother (The believer) just called. He has a friend who is a high level booster, (but on the low end of the high end). He called him to see about tacking on a few season tickets to his donation package. Friend calls his person that handles his tickets and was told, "he needs to decide before the end of the week. They'll be gone next week. This is going to be huge."

Stay the course, they are FOS

This topic is more addictive than any drug one could buy. I may need rehab soon! Great to have some orange excitement once again.

Well, that almost seems obvious after Blackburn's comments earlier today. I assume that's how he knows Gruden is interested.

Hey Tuesday,

VQ is double and tripling down that Tee has not been contacted. I hope you have the opportunity to tallywhack someone in the face.

I'm staying far away from that. They can quadruple down, that's fine.

There's a big split between the reporters at the national outlets and the local guys. Hargis, Brice, etc. think there is at least some merit to the rumors. Thamel, Schlabach, etc. think it is beyond ridiculous.

When there is that big of a difference, somebody is obviously dead wrong and either just a terrible reporter or lying.

This gave me a Cool Hand Luke flashback.

 

[ATLVols]

Another question: Would we hate Gruden if he says no again? (Hypothetical)

Get that word out to Gruden and see if that helps him to say yes. His whole legacy could be tainted because there’s so many UT fans.

 

[Ten_Titans]

"I have spoken with multiple people at UT that say this is a 20 year decision for direction of UT"....Brice "Career defining moment for Currie".

Hmm. I think that was one of the mosquito dick points about what a Gruden hire would mean.
