IMO, and in no particular order:

-National Air & Space (Smithsonian)- my first museum as a kid, great memories
-National Museum of the USAF in Dayton, OH- the B-70 Valkyrie is worth the trip alone
-Naval Aviation Museum, Pensacola

Runners up: Museum of Aviation at Robbins AFB, Pima Air & Space Museum

Been to all of them. Agree with order.

For a non-aviation museum. One of the best I have been to is the Nimitz WWII Pacific museum in Fredricksburg, TX

Always keep an eye on Brent Hubbs. He's the best in the biz in Knoxville, IMO. He's very conservative and very hesitant to give false hope on anything. He's also respectful and doesn't leak things earlier than they're meant to be leaked.

I'm not saying he knows the conclusion to this situation, but his tone has changed somewhat over the past week or two. In their Q&A tonight, he (& the other mods) seemed more positive on the Gruden front than in the past. Hubbs is a smart guy. Tonight, he didn't shoot down Grumors or try to reign people in. His response was about how he's not sure Gruden wants to coach college football. That way, he gives himself deniability if it doesn't happen. And if/when it does happen, he can say his question all along was not about UT or that desire, but just about whether or not JG wanted to go this route.

He doesn't outright say anything earth shattering, but if you know and follow Hubbs through the years, it's par for the course for him when something big like this is in the works.

Last night I dreamed (I kid you not) that I worked in Human Resources at the University and it was Jon Gruden's first day on the job as HC of the Vols! I escorted him to the various places he needed to go to sign paperwork or that were part of his new hire orientation. He was super happy to be here.

When I woke up this morning I said SOON!:)

When you watch the Blue Angels practice and follow up with the NAS Pensacola museum, it's hard to beat. Got buzzed by the Blue Angels yesterday on Orange Beach--a routine they do after they return home from an air show. AWESOME. :rock:

Again with the old rope a dope trick "we don't have any information or can comment" which is interpreted to be "we have all the information and stay tuned to the Gruden thread."

It's not about soon it's about being a loon.

I don't have read a picture to make sure I didn't miss anything. If you'd rather I can just ask what I missed 500 times and beg for more updates. I'm trying to be respectful of everyone else by not asking to be spoonfed but to hell with me for that
