Just talked to a friend who is in the state legislature. He has a friend in the AD who told him Butch is definitely out after Alabama. The AD is negotiating with only Gruden but there are two issues standing in our way right now. Money is not one of the issues. Not really new info but good to hear confirmation from another source.

Yes. For TN fans to feel betrayed by more than just Gruden, would have to involve Haslams or Peyton or both. So that would narrow it down to the Browns or the Colts.

I don’t see it being another college team.

Why would PM be working him to the Colts? What's PM's connection with the Colts now? Just questions

Peyton was rumored to be working with an "unnamed" team during the last NFL Draft. Supposedly learning the ins and outs of the front office.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least if the Colts are grooming him for an Elway-like role.

Does Irsay have the clarity or ability to step aside and let a guy like Peyton actually do such a job?

Yes! I think it is over simplified to look at it and say "we have a coach." Currie looks at Butch and says, "behind door 1 you have a get out of Knoxville next Sunday card with your payout, and behind door 2 we have the whole rest of this season, your tanked reputation, and payments on your payout." Door 1 has a severance date earlier this week. Not hard.

You've done a nice job of pulling the strings. Kudos.

It all boils down to what happens next week in regard to Butch's door.

As far as any announcements relative to a new coach .... IMO, your assessment of the November timing based on family priorities is being overlooked by many.

That's where my training as a coach's wife comes in.

I wonder if Gruden XX is when it will happen.. Or maybe XXI

At this rate, we're going about 15 minutes per 50 posts, so...

My guess is we'll be on XX by 5:00 today.

By game time, we'll be 4,000 posts into XX

We'll be into XXI by Sunday Morning.

My guess is Butch is announced to be leaving at the end of XXI or beginning of XXII and Gruden is announced under XXIII.
