Official Jon Gruden Thread XVIII

Not open for further replies.
Hey guys, one of my employees has really, really been sucking it up lately. Their performance has consistently dropped over the course of several weeks and it doesn't look like it's going to get any better. Their deficiencies have been pointed out repeatedly, but they refuse to change/alter the way they perform their job. This has caused a toxic work environment in the office because other people's jobs are being impacted. Should I let this individual go, and appoint someone else in the department (that has experience in the role) to take over while a suitable replacement is found? Or, just let the individual keep working through the end of the year and hope things will change? Thanks for your help!

If you block him from checking Volnation every 30 seconds for Grumors! his performance might pick up!
 
Man, this thread is moving fast! It'll take Coasty a week t catch up.



Calm down.... you know I got that poor old ugly woman looking at me with that crooked eye of hers ... scares me, I have to slow down to make sure she ain?t throwing the garbage out and hitting me with it

You guys are insane. There is zero percent chance that Gruden comes here. He's living the dream life without having to do anything like recruiting, putting up with boosters, and worrying about every single call.

I assumed you guys were joking but I see many that have actually convinced themselves that this is going to happen.


Pure insanity.



For the record, I'd love it too. It's just not going to happen.

Stay a while, have some fun, get excited for UT football again. We're all friends here with a couple enemies.
 
Okay, I'll just say this as another little hypothetical, thinking out loud type of statement.
I hope Coach Gruden someway, somehow, gets Al Wilson involved. I know he doesn't have his degree yet (that's right, ain't it?) so he won't be on paid staff with a position title and all, but if we can have a VFL DJ, can't we have a VFL Motivator. Let him lead the team in the maxims. Make him the get-back-coach. Anything to have his fire and leadership associated with the team.

Maxim's Coach & Get Back Coach Al Wilson. Make this happen!

C'mon guys ... no thoughts?

I mean, between Gruden info, while we're talking about cereal and such, can we throw this around?

Damn. It was a good run. It took 18 threads but someone finally put all the Grumors to bed.

Packers up your stuff guys. You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.

Here is where I am at:

Teams used to hate playing in Neyland. Coaches hated it. It was a feared place. Not many atmospheres top a night game in Neyland. We use to be a hard hitting, fear instilling football team. We use to scare players and coaches.

Now, Neyland is a hangout. People come to chat about what they are going to do this weekend, see a couple of favorite people and take selfies.

I want the old Neyland back. I want teams to be scared. I want to be the team to beat every saturday. I want the tough play, loud crowds, and Neyland rocking again.

Thats what I want. And the only man I think can do it, Spider 2Y Banana.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention as no one has been thoughtful enough to come in her and let us know

Tennessee Football:

Under coach Jones = an old neutered Tom Cat laying around waiting for someone to scratch his belly.

Under "the rest of the field of adequate coaches" = maybe winning the SEC east in 5 years.

Under coach Gruden = vying for a National Championship in 5 years or less.

Under the hire that UT will likely make = See "Under coach Jones" above.

You want my college years back. Me, too. What a ride.
