Official Jon Gruden Thread XXIV

[Orange_Vol1321]

Haslam wanted and made sure it was Currie.

I'm sure you remember, just throwing that out there.

Yes, basically my point. The AD is just an extension of the boosters arm.

 

[Hawkpilot]

I agree. Meeting happened, no interims wanted it, ok boys hold the show til we can find an interim or refigure the timing on butch.

That would be a very minor setback. But some people want to push button get banana (as we say in flight school). Patience ya'll. I'm enjoying the cold front in coastal GA and glad I can wear a hoody.

It's the small things that always makes you happiest.

 

[BJWeeks]

This is a time when I wish we could PM.

Should we be worried about anything?

Whatsapp is a great way to PM. While youre at it, add me so I can get away from the forum.

 

[secking]

Don’t recall taking shots at jav. There’s another Doc_Vol running around here too.

Then I apologize to you :hi:

 

[butchna]

Great points!

Why would the AD make an announcement to attempt to appease the fanbase? That makes no sense to me but yet a lot of people on this board seem to feel entitled to what's happening in this whole process.

Could you imagine the backlash if Currie stated his actual intentions? :thud:

If Currie gets the hire right, all this is empty forest noise. If he doesn’t, there will be something real to react to.

Well Im in NE Tenn and I'm freezing my arse off!

The Beav said another round of misinformation would begin swirling as soon as today.. we wake up to an extension of the AD, jimmy h saying there is a 0% chance JG comes to UTK .. sure seems to be rolling right along. Not IF but WHEN

You would be worried about over-exposure to nut jobs in this thread this morning. Other than that, no.

 

['Boro-vol]

I don't think they knew prior to Georgia. Things really hadn't started to circle the drain before that, IMO.

The booster meeting, and teleconference happened that Saturday night, and Sunday. That's when the decision was finalized. It might not have been expressed to the current coach yet, but everything was set in motion. He was not coming back next year

 

[VFLnSFD]

Me too!!

MIT alums investing together ... interesting.

Investigation if Castor and the offshoots were brought up in the early threads. Associated with one of Bubba's drive-bys.

 

[BJWeeks]

I want Gruden NOW not SOON NOW!!!!!

 

[baburntt]

So in about 2 hours we’ll know if butch is fired or not.

I’ll save you some waiting time. He’s not

 

[preacherwebb]

Gladly.

did it a long time ago.

 

[VFLnSFD]

No. In about 2 hours we will know if butch is speaking at today's press conference.

 

[volfan1631]

He was fired 2 weeks ago.

His sideline demeanor has been different so I think there is something to this

 

[BubbaWms]

So in about 2 hours we’ll know if butch is fired or not.

Officially ?....unlikely !

 

[buckfama]

I would feel better if they would just let it be known today that Jones is out. Even if they say he is going to finish out the season. I think doing this could save homecoming from getting really ugly.

Exactly, and it would free them up publicly to pursue whoever they wanted without looking like a bunch of backstabbers.

I understand wanting to keep certain things under wraps but this is borderline ridiculous. You need to at least be a little forthcoming with the fans, especially this fan base which has supported the team and school through 10 years of crap.

One cannot possibly believe our AD is as inept as this process seems. The silence is deafening, work is being done or has been completed.

Unfortunately he's not giving hourly updates to social media and the message board community.

When it dies down here for 15 minutes the conspiracies start, and everybodys blood pressure gets elevated.

I don't know who the new coach will be....I know who I think it will be. But I do know Butch Jones won't be wandering the sidelines inside Neyland Stadium next season....and right now that's enough.

I AM right there with you on this!!! Great post!! :rock:

 

[DougVol]

What happened to tacos 🌮 no cheese?

 

[preacherwebb]

Using the ignore feature on whiners and crybabies

[Poppa T]

I havent had my coffee yet, can someone tell me what this means in layman terms?

So if already answered. Trying to catch up. I was taught that in means Best Alternative to NO Agreement. Laymen terms it is a party's walk away position.
