Official Jon Gruden Thread 30

Here's a great Benton's tip:

I like to trim the fat off the ends of the bacon pieces and put them in a ziplock bag. When I make cornbread I put a couple of those pieces in the cast iron skillet and let them melt while it's heating up. Takes the cornbread to a whole new level.

Great tip.

Not disagreeing. But also not sure Brady Hoke changes anything. Since/if Currie knows he's got Gruden and can't announce it today, there's no reason to let Butch go today.

Why is it so hard? He’s given plenty of reasons not to other than being hammered on the sidelines

"*BREAKING NEWS* Well guys some huge news is on the horizon. My brother knows a guy on the board that isn’t going to be mentioned that has informed him tonight that 4 hours ago or so we inked a deal with the man himself Jon Gruden to be the next head coach of UT football, a booster at UT paid out all coaching staffs that aren’t sticking around buyouts and Peyton was the one in the meeting room that said Jon Gruden was the future of Tennessee Football and that was said with the backing of many people, the announcement should be leaking on Sunday and along with that he was also informed that with the signing of Jon Gruden, Cade Mays is going to recommit. I️ know this sounds like just another Grumor but it’s from a source I️ trust very much and although nothing isn’t a rumor until it happens this one is one I️ believe whole heartedly. With that being said GO VOLS!!!!! I️ hope this is all real life come Sunday!!!!!"

I want to believe these kind of posts, but the use of "BREAKING NEWS" by a random unnamed poster and the rampant run on sentences kind of makes it hard for me.

I like hearing this but I'll believe it when I see it. Soon!

This sounds like an idea that was thought of while having the munchies.

My personal opinion...anyone that says it will happen this Sunday is FOS. If it didn’t happen after UK, there’s no reason to do it now, save for something drastic occurring and that wouldn’t be planned ahead of time. I’m 99% Gruden but I really don’t think it will be announced until the end of the year. My guess is Butch is publically let go after
vandy and Gruden is announced in the lead up to the SEC championship. Wouldn’t be surprised if Butch coaches the bowl game as well, assuming we make one and assuming he doesn’t have a new job to step into immediately.

wait youre a frost guy? The one year head coach who has no idea what its like to coach and recruit in the SEC? It all makes sense now

I'm not a "Frost guy", but when given the choice between Mullen or Frost...give me Frost. UF agrees.

So you don't think your friend is honest?

I'm not sure Larry is confirming done deal or not, but he's changed his stance over the past few weeks. And we should all see that as a very positive thing. Larry, like Hubbs, is usually very cautious and conservative. They don't blindly buy into the hype and jump on board, something I admire and think we could all learn from.

But he's changed his tone and stance on all this. You should be very encouraged by that.

The day is coming.

According to his post on VQ, as of 12:05AM, LWS was still at 5% on Gruden.

Hmm? I'm here if I need you.
 
All this Benton’s Bacon talk has taken me to their website wanting so badly to buy some. Geez, it sounds like the best. Only things as good as a Championship Vols football team are a good woman (as hard to find as Bigfoot) and bacon.

You can get it in and around Knoxville at quite a few places fyi.

we are finishing 5-7 if we are lucky. I dont see how this team makes it to a bowl, or deserves one for that matter.

I am not bashing anyone bringing info....BUT we keep hearing stuff every week about Jones being fired, pressers, and all that so I won't buy into anything until I hear it from the media as a done deal
 
Well I got to leave this thread for a while (depends need attention) ... you young guns try to keep the excitement going and don't let the nega-grudes get you on the downward swing ...

When you see the nega vibes post a new Grumor and keep the hungry mob fed till I can return.............. Good luck, I trust you to do this! lol

I understand why some of you are saying wait until after Vandy, but Butch has given so many reasons to get canned officially after the next loss.

1. His coaching is awful first and foremost
2. His handling of Kendrick situation
3. He is a grade A a**hole and caused a VFL to quit.
4. He is throwing shade at a 17 year old kid at a press conference for decommitting. I mean come on Butch!!

I mean there’s probably quite a few more reasons I didn’t name too.(losing to Kentucky) I just think if he loses to a bad Mizzou team he needs to go. I understand the timing of things, but it’s time if he loses to Mizzou. There’s no getting bowl eligible with a loss this weekend.
