Official Jon Gruden Thread IV

[voldawgforever]

Jimmy the Cheek must go away as in NOW

Lulz

 

[SpringBokVol]

SBV, do you still believe CJG will be the next coach at the University of Tennessee?

Have you heard anything new to further confirm/deny this position?

Yes, I still believe Gruds will be UT's next coach.

 

[BIG ADAM]

this is freakin retarded. maybe Cheek should look at the stadium this up coming saturday. does anyone think that would change the outcome??? empty seats???

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

This is incredible

That is amazing

 

[GreatWhiteNorth]

Yeah that is horrible. Tragic news. Those guys who played in the MLB then go back to their home countries are such targets when they get back home. Horrible.

Day after he got his pension check. SMH. And what a way to go...yikes.

 

[ACvol3]

Dooley is a caught looking 3rd strike...

Detroit Tiger IMO.

 

[SpringBokVol]

Is this backtracking or just stating hurdles that could slow the process?

Not backtracking at all... just giving some insight on inner workings...

 

[coffeevol]

Is this real? The Doolander art is great

 

[jos3ywales]

This is incredible

wow is that really the Rock at UT

 

[Buffett Vol]

One thing we can thank Dooley for is bringing in a new level of art on the Rock. I've seen some great stuff up there the last couple years.

I agree. There are some very talented folks at UT

 

[SpringBokVol]

Im talking about firing Dooley and getting another coach. Obviously Cheek has power and he likes Dooley, but he won't stand in the way if the money is there to support the move.

Yes, I am talking about the same thing. He can't stop Dooley from being fired, but he certainly can get in the way of getting a new coach. For the very reasons I said. If he sets admissions standards to high and he wants to keep his entitlement funds increasing then it would be a very tough situation for a coach to want to come in under.

Not saying that will happen - in fact, I believe he is irrelevant at this point.

But just saying money isn't always the be all and end all.

There are other things involved.

And terrible grammar..

 

[Grude_Dude]

Yes, I still believe Gruds will be UT's next coach.

But does it still happen this year or will Doofey get another few years and then we get Gruden?

 

[BeecherVol]

This is why NO ONE wanted the job when Dooley took it.

Kiffin was irate at the admission policy - it was completely handcuffing him on what he wanted to get done.

No top level coach would want to or even could be successful with how it was/still partially is.

Hart is making strides to change it. Either the pres is on board or he is out - most would like to see him out.

But trust me when I say that this is an issue.

Who else is involved in admissions other than the Pres. As far as policy goes.

 

[SpringBokVol]

You would know more about that angle than I would.

I was speaking specifically towards Cheek just stonewalling Gruden because he doesn't want him here or because he wants to keep Dooley here.

He would be dismissed before he got too far if that was his agenda.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

Day after he got his pension check. SMH. And what a way to go...yikes.

Brutal.

He will always be remembered in ATL as the guy who got lost on the way to the stadium and missed his start. He was a really good pitcher.

I can't take another year of doofus. Something has got to give.

It could affect who the next coach is. But obviously if Dooley is fired we will be getting another coach

Standards r already too high.. Like Matthews said, if they want UT to compete with ua, uf, uga on the field, they should put UT on the same admission standards.. It's just not fair right now.. Hasn't been.. Seems like we r really missing Dickey and Johnson..

Gruden is a this year only option.

 

[Grude_Dude]

I can't either...If Doofey gets another year, they will not be able to let me have access to sharp objects...

 

[WriterVol]

How many Haslams does it take to turn the other Cheek?
