I’m gonna be real. Gruden will never be the coach here. I doubt he ever coaches again to be honest. It’s fun to think about though and helps take our minds off of our miserable situation. I just hope we’re not disappointed with the outcome when/if the fire/hire is made.

nothing on CBJ being gone and it is too early for any real action on a replacement. I still don't believe he is back next year but the last 24 hours there is some talk that Currie really would prefer not to have to do it this year. I think he would have a difficult time selling that line of thinking but that chatter has been out there..

Listened to Ainge on 104.5 today. He confirmed what I've been saying about our run game be shut down by defenses with 6 men in the box by slanting to the play side. We have 6 to block 6 and can't get it done. Part of its missed assignments and confusion on who to block and part of it is the fact that the defense doesn't have to hesitate at ALL and the backside DE is crashing so hard he makes the tackle from behind because there is nothing to keep them honest. Absolutely ridiculous for this to be happening.

Part of why I'm surprised our jet sweep game has been so weak.

People gave Bajakian grief for using it so often, but he had reasons for it. Easy way to pick up cheap yards if the defense sells out on zone read looks. Opens up some possibilities with RPO as well.

Sigh. People were getting too much hope. LWS had to put a stop to it.

I don’t get why everyone thinks Gruden would be such a good coach at TN. I remember him having good quarterback play, winning a Super Bowl with Dungy’s team, then loosing the locker room almost immediately afterwards until his team basically laying down on him 2 years later. And I don’t think Chip Kelly would last 2 years at TN before leaving. Plus I think his offense has had its day in the spotlight and now is just another offense that dc’s have learned to defend as well as everything else

I can't predict how good of a coach he would be college. But he won a SB with Brad Johnson at QB and beat his former team that he put together. Then, he made the playoffs a couple of more times and was fired after a 9-7 season. The Bucs haven't done anything since. I also think he would tweak his offense based upon new trends. He's been watching them for years.

Also, Butch isn't back next year. Not happening. The well is poisoned beyond remedy.

Absolutely. But there's a big difference between not pleasing all the fans and having half of them in pre hate mode for no real reason.

And I know all fan bases have idiots but my God we have some vocal ones.
If people like the Twitter brigade go all in on the Gruden thing, it'll be just constant moaning and groaning from day one with anyone else.

Half is probably a stretch.

If it's not Gruden but another great coach that gets it right you won't hear much of that. It built with time for Jones. He couldn't slow it down on Saturdays and made it worse in front of the Mic afterward.

Currie didn’t come to the TN Sports HOF Golf Tournament today, at least that I saw. He was supposed to come, the tournament director told me herself. My hope is that he was too busy negotiating a buy out for Butch.

Johnny Majors did ask me if I had any Jack Daniels though. Really wish I would have.

Literally every insider on here and other boards has said that Butch is done and Currie's basically working the back channels and getting his ducks in a row. Except Larry. If Larry is right on this he'll be the only "insider" that I put any stock into from here on out.

Read that quote again. Currie would prefer not to have to do it this year.

Yeah we would prefer he didn't have to do it. Hell I prefer to watch a game and expect to win. I prefer to play in the SECCG for once.

We all prefer this didn't have to happen BUT...

I refuse to look at any positive angle with respect to LWS posts, becuase I know he doesn't post anything with a positive outlook in mind.
