I am pretty certain that Dale will not be coming to Knoxville. He loves where he is and his quality of life. He does not want to be in Knoxville or deal with everything that comes with being a coach here. I know that many fans love the idea of a “hero” returning home to help save the day but I wouldn’t put any stock in this one. Sorry.

Didn't hear his answer, only heard he was asked.... which to me gave some conformation that Gruden is at least seriously considering the offer

Am actually getting to point where I think this is real and not just hope anymore. Dangerous spot but hey what the heck

No I just dont swallow every rumor that flows down the path..........I was here in 2012.


Until he walks to the podium and announced I won't believe.


Even he said it was at 60%. If he is so sure why is he at 60% and not 100%?

I would have to believe coming to UT would at least double his salary. That's assuming he's still at Appy

And Beav just tweeted.

"Jimmy has been amazing for his clients - getting C grade coaches A grade salaries to the detriment of UT fans. Unfortunately for him, we have learned his tricks."

This is the opposite of the usual afternoon meltdown.

Ok, I'm trying to catch up (skim) from about 80 pages behind and I just hit the pokemon area. I'm trying to decide is this is what the grudenites vs. the anti-grudes look like on the internet.

If this is all true and it starts being reported nationally, how does this effect Jones' status over the next few days?

Boro, it’s good to see some media members actually get caught up with what we know.

Here's a thought. I'm sure FL and TN boosters probably run in the same circles..golf courses and such.

The long game would say that Trey is a chess piece. Fed info on other breaking topics for months to build up his credibility. Now he can be the voice to get out whatever those sources want released and we will believe it.

It'll be 95% joy and 5% doubt. Which is better than any other coach would generate. I still have to try and explain to people that Gruden is a good coach and that NFL winning percentage isn't remotely close to college winning percentage.

Everyone has a price. Last year he made $125k, I’m sure we would make a much more lucrative offer.

Trey Wallace:

"If he wanted an NFL job, he would have already taken it and you would have already heard about it this year as well."

"Family wants him back in East TN."

"JG is not going to have to go on the road to recruit every day. He finishes the deal."

"Every 14-18 year old kid in the country knows who JG is."

Shouldn't Doyle (sorry, spelling?) get his meter back out?

Even ONE natty would be fine...eventually. I just wanna get back to beating Florida and Georgia every year...and beating Bama every other year...and the ones we lose to them being close at least. Just get back to national relevance....and be a power again.
