Official Jon Gruden Thread XXIV

[Jravol78]

Florida is going to have a huge omelette where their face used to be after this “for cause” crap is finally settled.

you weren't the one sending threats to donkey toofuses were you butchna?

 

[TnColt8]

Mine did that when I got in trouble here.,

Friendly reminder to the new Grudes. They take rules here serious. I have received two infractions. First, was, I cussed someone and replaced the vowels with symbols. Next I used a gif with a bad word.

It really sucked cause it was at the end of the game last night and I thought Butch would get fired and I was freaking out and Gruden would be announced and I would miss it and ...and...

So, be good, but have fun.

Ive been a believer of the BEAVER since day 1!

I am sure the new Grudes appreciate the advice!

 

[Lurkerin]

So not even a whole day?

Ha. No sources here. I said "hoping".

 

[Volwark]

MIT why did you attack Allen last night?

Cause he caught beave in a blatant and very obvious lie

 

[Hawkpilot]

?

He sent a tweet about Allan Bell after allan went on a rant about UT.

Between AV, MIT, BCarter and the info I had shared with me about his buyout being finalized earlier in the week, COMBINED with Hubbs and VQ and WBIR saying he’s been fired.......rumors of meetings and the AD telling the press to be prepared.......he has to be gone tomorrow.

Nothing else makes sense.

Just the fact it makes no sense, this is UT, therefore I expect to see Butch coach the next game.

 

[butchna]

I think they'll come out of this ok, actually. I think they'll eventually let that go, pay him and move on

We worry about “looking bad”. That’s the picture of it. They look silly.

 

[DynaLo]

Meh, I know all those pictures are somewhat manipulated with a green screen and edge enhancements. Wondering about the neck area mostly. I'm never too serious though, I feel like i'll live longer that way.

It’s shopped. I found what looks like the image they used for Jon.

Ok. How did I miss this? I was getting ready to call it a night on here and now I'm back in

First I have seen this

 

[Squints]

The bible said 2000+ years ago that Jesus is coming soon.

#soon

Attempting to connect dots between the Bible and a coach coming to UT is distasteful, as are the "Gruden verses."

No need to go that route.

 

[butchna]

you weren't the one sending threats to donkey toofuses were you butchna?

I didn’t want him going anywhere! Loved his “recruiting”.

Little late there bud.

Just on your index finger? You must have not seen Daniela...

Haha.

 

[peerless98]

Ha. No sources here. I said "hoping".

Referring to "One More Day" being changed to "One More Dawn"

 

[Air_Force_Vol27]

Didn't JAV say he was fired

 

[Hawkpilot]

Kudos to you, RO, DD4Me, RockCity and some others.

People getting too distracted arguing about the pretty butterflies and not paying attention to terrain around the LZ.

Still 65-70%. Won't go 100% until announced.

I'm buying what you're selling

 

[tastycar]

We worry about “looking bad”. That’s the picture of it. They look silly.

Well, I do disagree with you that they look silly. The public announcement of firing for cause isn't a good look in the short term, but I don't think there will be long term effects.

 

[SugarLandVol]

You know what makes sense? The fact this AD is completely hopeless. There's a good start.

Jones should have been gone after the South Carolina game. Period. End of Story. I don't give a damn about how "unfair" going up against Bama it would have been for an interim. That's the price you pay, but everyone, and I do mean EVERYONE knew the outcome of the Bama game in advance. It would not have been embarrassing to any interim coach to have gone in there and gotten smoked.

But did it happen after USCe? Obviously not. And they let that used car salesman continue making a laughingstock of UT football for another two weeks. For what reason? To give him "a chance to turn it around"? Because of a buyout?

Or does the true reason lie in the AD not having a straight ****ing clue? Or even give two ****s about the state of the program? I just learned from one of my sources today that "Currie doesn't fire coaches in mid season." This coming from a guy who worked for him at K-State. He's reliable and I trust what he says.

I've lost my faith in the ability for the AD to actually do what is right. I'm prepared to get some random coach I'll have to Google to attempt to get excited about. And likely won't be excited at all. Now, I very well could be proven wrong tomorrow if the announcement is made that Jones is moving on. But it would not surprise me in the least to see him coaching this Saturday.

Power play by a group of big money contributors to make this program successful in spite of the AA/AD deficiencies. They (AA) will benefit even though they they may not like it. Tough love, if you will.

 

[Hawkpilot]

Goin to bed.

Gotta leave with two things Ive said always:

If you preordered your hot rod, keep driving the car you got, may not be flashy but will get you doen the road until they deliver the whip.

That said.

The future is more important than the present. Good things come to those who wait.

Agreed

 

[jos3ywales]

Little late there bud.

well i am usually a little late on everything haha, Im always last one to know oh well

If your subscription were a magazine, I'd unsubscribe.

Every day that passes with Jones as our coach, the more money and reputation we lose. Currie has been due to give a public explanation for weeks, but here we lie.

He may fool all of us, but that doesn't undue the fact he has let this dog and pony show continue for far too long, all while being deafenly silent.

He owes us the best chance to win. Do you know the dynamics of the assistants? I don’t.

If it was my decision Butch was gone after Florida.

If Butch is ultimately gone and already knows it and we are truely working the right channels for our next coach then what actually changes?

Isn’t the endgame of Butch being out and Gruden being in all that really matters right now? These players deserve the fans support regardless of Butch and frankly Butch will be appreciated for the job he did in many areas once gone but he was only a good transitional coach.

I understand why people think we are owed a response but that’s when Florida happens. The players heard from twitter. That’s embarassing. Currie runs a tight ship and I like it and hate it at the same time.

I believe his point was that "soon" could mean a long time.
