Official Jon Gruden Thread XXIV

[jordan4vols]

So Docvol was trolling. Shocker

 

[orangerush]

That's it!! I'm officially done with Currie and the whole sh*t show. Until later, probably, but as of right now, I'm done

I hear you, this is one big bowl of donkey dung.

 

[LakeMaryFLVol]

And not for lack of talent, either. Butch couldn’t develop a caterpillar.

Winner!!!!!Should be gone for this one reason alone ................John Kelly agrees

Grude Morning. Is today the day we part ways with Lyle?

 

[VFLnSFD]

If you dont mind can u post a quick run down of how you prepare your wings.

Sure!
-let them sit out for an hour or so to come to room temp.
-dry each on with paper towels.
-fry in peanut oil or lard at 275 for 13 minutes.
-let cool and pat dry again.
-fry at 375 for 6 minutes.
-toss in your favorite sauce.

Nope

 

[Vol4ever]

Based on no action by Currie means 1 of 2 things.

1 - if Jones finishes out the end of the year he is looking at coaches that are currently coaching teams.

2 - he might retain Butch next year.

I define trolling as posting something fake implying it’s true in an effort to purposely fool people for kicks and giggles.

That being said, I don’t think DocVol is trolling. The morning is new so it could still happen. However, as positive as he was, if it doesn’t happen, I’ll begin to question everything along with the 142 hours I’ve spent in this thread.

 

[KeyVol14]

Man I'm extremely disappointed. The fans don't deserve this and the fact that curries hasn't said one damn word since the Florida debacle is even more insulting. I've said it once I'll say it again I was NEVER this pissed off while Dooley was HC. Do your job Currie butch jones is literally a walking excuse; says the same sh** over and over. I'm kind of glad I can't watch anymore games. The fact that Florida is gonna pull the trigger adds fuel to the fire as they will be one step ahead of us already. I don't care how much feedback I get in this but I tried to warn most of you guys that Beaver was nothing more than a guy trying to get some ecred.

Hyams is still saying this morning that Currie does not want to fire Butch.

That makes no sense at all.

I don't pay any attention to Hyams.

Just me though.

 

[Sara Clark]

I’ve got season tickets, but I’d rather throw them in he garbage disposal than watch another game with Butch on the sidelines. It’s insulting

Yes, my husband and I were discussing that very fact this morning in the kitchen, when my youngest son walks in and says "but I want to go to the homecoming game!" So I asked him "if he was sure he didn't want to just stay home and go hunting?" Nope, I want to go to the games. I told him if we go, he won't be allowed to eat concessions and I won't be taking him to alumni hall to buy a shirt (I purchase the kids a shirt at most home games), should he need to use the bathroom, flush the toilet 10 times to run the water bill up. Terrible I know, can't help it!

Hyams is still saying this morning that Currie does not want to fire Butch. I know someone from the AD is feeding that info to Hyams, but something is said last week makes no sense.
I thought I read on here that he said that if Currie thought Butch was the right person for job that he (Currie) would take the hit for empty stands and loss of revenues from boosters.

That makes no sense at all, isn't one of the main jobs of the AD to increase revenue? If that is truly the way Currie thinks then he will be out of a job very soon as well.

I have come to the point where I do not trust anything Hyams "reports". I hope 104.5 does not use him for Vol insider spots anymore after this year.

 

[cbbowlingmd]

Guys I know this KY was tough but trust me when I say it -This outcome is the best thing that could of happened to UT. This loss adds a tremendous amount of pressure on UT’s administration to do what must be done to get the program back on track. Boosters and other powerful people are doing everything they can behind the scenes to ensure that UT is returned to its rightful place.

I guess I'm just a little bit confused why this loss is good for Tennessee if Jones was going to be fired "win or lose."

 

[Jimmy Football]

Grude Morning. Is today the day we part ways with Lyle?

No. We're gonna wait until everyone else picks their coach, and then pick between Bobo and Satterfield.

 

[RikidyBones]

We also don't need a press conference to fire Butch Jones today. a media release suffices with the normal scheduled press conference tomorrow.

 

[river rat]

Butch Jones show is on. With Butch. He looks morose. We had some individuals step up, yada yada.

 

[Vol4ever]

I don't pay any attention to Hyams.

Just me though.

I agree but he has been right so far.

 

[BearCat204]

So Docvol was trolling. Shocker

Docvol doesn't troll.

 

[Ten_Titans]

Yeah that makes no sense, cause wasn't one of his big things at KState was raising money and revenue?

Why would he change that philosophy at a new location?

And if he is truly thinking that way then he needs to go as well

It's the same thing we've always done. And interestingly enough, it's the same way the Browns franchise is run.

We are going to outsmart everyone. We are going to play the long game with Butch Jones. He's going to bounce back and be fine. We are going to take a flyer on this guy from Cincinnati. Save the AD some money and this guy will be great in a few years. We're going to go get this guy from LA Tech because he has great hair and a winning daddy.

We hear everyone screaming at us how terrible these ideas are, but they don't know anything. We know. So we don't care what you think.

It's like a Billionaire taking weeks to shop for a used car. If you are lucky, you might get a decent deal. You might find the perfect 1999 Camry. You know what you aren't going to get? Those weeks of your life back (years in this case), and a ****ing Ferrari. Just go buy a ****ing Ferrari and stop worrying about value.

We are worth too much damn money to care so much about getting that 99 Camry for 94% of bluebook value. It's just ****ing absurd.

 

[wesleydmartin]

Tick tock.......ecred is on the line....when is the hammer dropping, who is the vol Nostradamus.....


Instead of soon we should start saying, never

 

[ArcherVol]

I?m at a loss for words that he is still here. What in the heck is going on in Knoxville?

Do they want to be irrelevant? I just don?t understand and I want Currie gone about as much as I want Butch out the door.

Butch is not wearing a Power T pin.

 

[DocVol]

Still thinking it happens today or tomorrow. No new info.

 

[tnhunter 10]

Wgwtfa....next year? Hopefully....soon

It seems like it's always "next year"

 

[Behr]

You or anyone else that says I'm wrong, will be very appreciated by the other posters. Not the first time I've taken an unpopular stance because it's reality. Mid November is the usual start of firing season. I'm personally in no way objecting to doing it today but it's just not that likely. Unless they have someone else lined up.

I understand this.
