Basically means we can ignore all other names being floated out there right now.

Gruden is and has been the #1 target.

If we are offering up 10 mil a year and a big chunk for assistants and Gruden is our number #1 Target with that pull then we are making a mistake. I’m swinging way bigger than Gruden.

Gruden is going to be persona non grata in Knoxvillle if he keeps saying stuff like that, only to turn us down. How do these guys not understand the depth of desperation among the Volunteer nation? If your not coming, fine just say so, but don't toy with peoples hopes. Edit: lol that sounded bad

Alright, so who’s going to bite the bullet and subscribe to 247 so we can read this article from Ramey that probably doesn’t give us any definitive answer?

You got a 10 day rule.

You must be 10 days removed from any post mentioning Starkville, MSU, or Mullen before you shall receive any praise.

😂

Mullen is the second guy if Gruden doesn't take the job.

Charlie Ergen isn't messing around. He and Currie made a power move last night and made it clear to Gruden that it's his job and they'll do everything to make him successful. They also game him an ultimatum to answer.

Ramey 247

Are there any legs to all the Jon Gruden talk?

The talk could be gaining some traction, according to some sources, but remains extremely fluid.

GoVols247 was told by two sources Thursday that first-year Tennessee athletic John Currie flew to Tampa, Fla., Wednesday night, where Gruden lives and works out of his infamous Fired Football Coaches Association office.

Talk inside the Tennessee athletic department has led some to believe that the Vols have made a pitch to Gruden, the Monday Night Football color analyst and former Super Bowl winning head coach with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Sources have also said that the Vols have given Gruden a deadline on making a decision. If the decision isn’t in Tennessee’s favor, Currie could turn his attention to Mississippi State’s Dan Mullen.

Mullen, we reported on Wednesday, is believed to have reached out to the Vols multiple times to express his interest in the opening.


GoVols247 has also been told that some believe it could come down to Gruden, who was fired by the Bucs in 2008 and has been out of coaching ever since, choosing between Tennessee and at least two NFL opportunities.

Multiple former players took to social media Wednesday to tease that big news could be on the way, but specifics were never offered.

I think we will have a coach in place by monday....whether it's Gruden or not remains to be seen. Imo though....we will have a new coach by 11/20...gives month to recruit hard before early signing.
