Official Jon Gruden Thread XXVI

['Boro-vol]

Curious here. When would you expect to see our other coaches putting out feelers? They have to know they won't be working for Butch much longer.

They already are....you won't know it until after the season though.

It is major league players competing against a high school team. Many of the boosters earned their money and influence in the free market. They have decades of experience putting together deals, hiring MBB consultants to develop plans, and applying strategic pressure to ensure certain outcomes.

The AA/AD on the other hand do not hire elite people to look at deals, love to hang around yes men, and run from obstacles rather than try to solve them.

It is not a fair fight.

So everything should be finalized by Friday, correct? Just probably won't be announced until a predetermined time?

I'm not trying to change anything. I'm posting what I'm posting because of the reason I am in this thread. Which I laid out as clearly as I can.

You use the thread for what you want and I'll use it for what I want. Just don't get so butthurt when I ask legitimate questions as if this is reserved for wild irrational thought only.

I hate to sound like a broken record. But Jesus H. Christ. If you have a problem with that. Stop quoting me. I've never once asked anyone here to do anything else.

First, you say "Santa is not real," then you take the Lord's name in vain! Sir, you are the devil!!! The devil !!!:devilsmoke:

Hey HearforGrumors...I have a question. If this investigation is ongoing, wouldn't it stand to reason that Butch would be put on some sort of administrative leave? I'm guessing it would look bad for him to be making the same choices on behalf of the boys this weekend that may have cause Kendrick serious complications last weekend.

This! I recommended janitorial services

Gruden to the Hill

Yaasssss!

Gruden to the Hill

I was starting to get worried about you, Comb. :rock:

 

[DuckRiverVol]

If someone is in the way again it....well..you know

We as fans have two wants in all of this.
One thing gone and a specific one to replace it...

Behind the scenes there are literally hundreds of decisions to be finalized, with several different players involved. These decisions impact a lot of money, and a lot of power. Each player is clamoring for as much as they can possibly get when all is said and done.

Why does Jimmy post this if there's zero chance?

 

[Hawkpilot]

Just my opinion here, and I have no info other than what's in my head...

But I get the feeling that the end result should remain the same, but someone is trying to change the timing.

Everyone comes out a little dusted up usually...As long as you win the war noone cares. To bad they don't still do parades

Must mean the contract was signed weeks ago. LOL.

You said you didn't care about anyone's opinion. On a message board. Lol.

You just told someone, when you see an opinion you don't care about, you ignore it.

What is it you want to know?

 

[undertakervol]

Finebaum talked about it in the last segment of the 1 hr ESPN show. Said a bad situation has certainly gotten worse. Wondered why Butch hadn't already been let go.

The prophecy is being fulfilled

 

[thebjd]

The Santa comment was to show I don't believe in things that are baseless. Most of the insiders here are posting what I believe they believe to be true. A fraction of that actually probably is true.

I'm trying to figure out what is what for myself and no one else. If you only want to read from people prepared to believe anything and everything that fits what they want to be true, then ignore me.

Also, I actually care what your opinion of me is, and whether or not it is accurate. Not a lot. But I do care.

I don’t have a negative opinion of you. I just prefer this to be a bit of a sanctuary from the misery in the football forum. I prefer to speculate 100% Gruden whether it lines up or not and avoid playing Perry Mason with every poster.

It does fit MIT's prediction

[Kurtastrophe]

I can thoroughly believe that Davenport may be a hold up in all of this. I can also believe that the boosters are savvier than she is.

What bothers is me is why didn't the boosters pull these maneuvers with the previous administrations of the university to prevent the habitual dumpster fire we've experienced over the past decade?

 

[Hawkpilot]

I'm really not sure how they're focusing this week in practice and film study with all of the distractions and the lame duck coaching staff. I honestly would not be surprised at all if we lose Saturday. If we win, it wasn't because of preparation, it was because of the talent gap.

Need something to rally around. The talent is there to ball out

What comes in the 3:00 hour?

You new here?

Growing too fast

No joke... born and raised here, now raising my kids here. It's a completely different town... well city

 

[Regulator]

Wait did I read correctly a few pages back? I know there are a lot of negagrudes around with their versions of things, but did I read something about there may or may not be a Santa Clause? I hope that was a mistake and they were referring to a particular clause in Botches contract. Please clear that up...Santa is real bucko!

There are actually three.
