Sarcasm noted.

No, too much has been said about Gruden, in many places and by many people. I'm not buying it.

We'll see. I would love to see it as well...if nothing for the immediate bump in exposure.

However, I remain skeptical. Not at 0% but under 25%.

I'm seriously confused about the vitriol towards the "academic side" of the university. Without strong academics we don't have billionaire boosters coming down the line. It is a circle that must be connected. No one wins by hating the academics.

I think because we are led to believe that's the hold up. Whether that's correct, I don't know

Butch is not getting one more year or any more years. Period. Even if they do make a bowl (which they won't), he wants out and everybody wants him out. He will be looking for a job elsewhere

Beaver and Bubba have no rep, why would anyone believe anything they say. I'll role with LWS/JAV/Atlanta/DTO/Boro/RockyTopSC/OV75. All of those have a proven track record.

Just FYI, but LWS and JAV's information contradicts the OG's. While Beaver and bubba's coincides with the OG's. Can't believe them all.

#EmptyNeyland would be a weekly reality next season if this were true. I don't believe it.

In my opinion #EmptyNeyland is a terrible movement. I think it hurts recruiting of players and future coaches as much as our performance this year.

I just think it sends a message that if things are good we're all in. If things are bad you're on your own. Just my thoughts. I'm sure I'll get blasted for this.

lol Larry is indeed a Debbie Downer, but he does also have information that causes him to be that way. He has been told Gruden turned us down twice, and was told again this morning it is dead.

Well after he loses one more then that should rule him out of every possible bowl besides the toilet bowl so this would take him out of any bonus money for making one. Doe he play out to the end? Did he actually have a Freudian slip in the press conference yesterday when he referred to homecoming as the final game? Does he lose one more and is gone?
Who knows.
I do have a 100% believe though that he knows he is gone regardless. As many people have already said: He is way too low key on all social media. As a matter of fact completely silent. You don't do that if you think you are here next year.

Edit: Soon! :mf_surrender: Please!

I believe that it does...but I believe that an empty stadium will have a negative impact.... especially if we miss out on Gruden and have to start competing with 5 or 6 other SEC coaches for a top tier coach.... JMHO

That is kind of what I was thinking. If the meetings are over and the choices are made, why boycott.
Unless the wrong choices are made.

Amen! I have to go to this thing called work today. You would think that after retiring twice, my wife would let me stay at home but NO!!!! She thinks I'm a terrible housewife and needed to find another job! It's part time, 3-4 days a week usually.

Hope you're doing something you enjoy!

JAV is as close as you can get. Not saying the others are or aren’t, but would be hard to find one closer. Larry knows guys on the inside as well.

that is indeed a good list of individuals to read(along with a few more) but if you and others wish to keep your head in the sand by not including B&B, I can't help except to offer you a hand as a VOL fan and help you out of the sand !

You can thank me later when the light comes on or you read B&B's posts and realize, hmmm, them 2 did know !

Growing rumors that if Butch gets to a bowl game, he gets one more year??? It’s on every board that is what Currie supposedly told him.

No way, right? I don’t see it.

My own opinion, following along the lines of others, is that something changed with Butch on Sunday. Therefore, the AD is putting out a narrative that could potentially float this along and buy some time? SFD???

Agreed. Without ESPN losing 15-20K subscribers a day and bleeding cash ..and getting worse with new layoffs in 2 weeks. I do not think we would have landed him
Click to expand...

Where did you get the 2 weeks number? I hadn't heard a specific timeline until they do more layoffs yet.

Swain at the end of his show said he got a tweet, I think he said tweet, from a person either deeply connected to the boosters or a booster himself that this empty neyland thing is going to jeopardize their chances of landing the next great coach at UT. I was thinking the same thing.
