someone explain why NONE of the media even some of the local radio shows (swain, ainge, basilio) don't think Gruden is even a possibility

it does seem like a dream we all want to come true... most of us believe... but why don't they have any hope - do they know something we don't or do we know something they don't? :)

Look at where that's coming from. We have Clay Travis (national media) saying we have a very good chance and Knoxville media flip flopping and changing position daily on whether we have a chance.

I wonder if Antone Davis is JAV....
Apparently, TOS has a post that says:

Over a commercial either Will or Josh said,

"Antone Davis. Someone told me that the reason he's out is he's the leak."

No idea what that means but that wasn't supposed to be said on live air.

It was during a commercial.

The immediate concern isn't about last Saturday. I immediate concern is this coming Saturday. Now that Currie and himself have become aware, if they allow the coach Kendrick told to be on the sideline then they are knowingly allowing a coach who dismissed player safety instead of relieving him of his duties. At that point they are just as guilty due to their lack of action.

Think of it this way. If you run a day care, and a child is suspected/ showing signs of abuse of some sort that didn't have said signs of abuse before showing up to daycare on a particular day. This would imply that child sustained this abuse while at the day care under the supervision of an employee. Public starts asking questions to you and the owner. The next day rolls around you don't at the lest suspend employee with pay but rather you allow the employee to again watch the kids. You are now at fault and will be ruined.

This is the decision infront of Currie. Either allow these coaches to continue and it'll result in him being at fault, or he can do what's right and save his job.

The easy way out is to suspend CBJ until the investigation is completed - assuming there is an investigation.

From TOS:

this from a poster thats been a member since 2014
This gentleman has had lunch with both of these guys in the last two weeks. He said they are keeping everything super close, but he is going to a function tonight with what he called "The powers that be" and said he hopes more information comes out in the next few days. He also said don't worry about getting an up-and-comer or "small fish"...said it's going to be a wow hire. "Watch out for FL he said, they have the cash and would love to sink their teeth into our guy. "

TIFWIW but this guy I spoke to has his last name on a few buildings down there and donates more than all of us combined.

I should also add that Gruden is #1 on this guys list o.0
the title is "Just spoke with someone in touch with Currie and DiPietro."

Based on this post solely I would guess that would mean Frost, Taggart, Mullen.

Can someone give me their insight? Are we looking at a possible Ergen vs Haslam battle? Sorry if this has been said but if Ergen is spearheading this thing, wouldn’t that line up with “The Beav”?

Poker is a game where you don't have to have the best hand to win. Poker is really reading other people and reading human emotion, which certainly comes into play in business.

I wasn't referring to him, specifically... Just text screenshots in general. His post is what prompted me to post mine, but it wasn't necessarily directed at him. I've seen several others throughout this Gruden saga... Just a reminder to always be skeptical.

I understand, but also saw several others who seemed to go on the attack mode because of spelling and the screen shot... and I felt like quoting your post was the best way to defend him and his integrity ... He only posts what is true to the best of his knowledge and I would take his word

Just because I'm annoying you doesn't mean I'm trolling. You should look up the actual meaning of the term "troll" before accusing someone of being one.

I honestly would not have know how to do that. Anyway all I intended was to line up information from two different sources. I guess you or anyone else can think I made it up if you would like. I have always said I don’t know who the coach will be this next go round. I truly don’t think anyone is off the table but I don’t know who we get. I just share information I think is relevant to this board. As I said I figured I would get crucified for posting a screenshot but that is fine. I’ll continue to let those here know what can and each of you can decide if you want to believe it or not

Here is what doesn't add up, and in hindsight didn't add up in 12. Why would there be a need for a "smokescreen" or a "misdirection?" If a deal has been made, it would be announced. Pure and simple.

I firmly believe that there is no deal, that the AD is not close to any deal, and I question whether the AD is very far along in this process at all.

I hope I'm wrong, but it would be business as usual in our inept administration. It is alarming at how poorly the entire University is managed.

I agree with this BUT a slightly different angle. Literally NOTHING has come out from the AD. So why would you need to smokescreen something that isn't there. Now if CBJ was already fired and we were in an "official" coaching search then I could see the need for one.
