SIAP and I may be misremembering but weren’t there “leaks” from 2012 of a supposed Gruden announcement during the SECCG back then like we’ve been hearing about this week for yet another Gruden announcement?

Don’t bust my balls because I’m all in on Gruden but if that was the supposed timeline for an announcement in 2012 and it’s getting regurgitated for 2017 then my Grudometer is back to 5%.
 
DeerPark has admitted he's not connected to the UTAD anymore. He said he represents multiple D1 schools. He was basically outed as a rep for Adidas with no connections at UT anymore. I seriously doubt he would know anything about the coaching search. If he has talked to boosters I highly doubt they would tell him anything and if they did, it was probably BS. I wouldn't put any stock in what he's saying.

2 things...can someone please fix the time, it’s throwing me off lol.

I trained with my guy today and his source (close family friend with a multi million dollar company in Chattanooga) which i posted about a week ago who works in the AD in some capacity has changed his tone. He once said petrino was who we were getting now he has said that’s on the back burner if we get our guy. He wouldn’t give any more specific info because he said he believes a few people could be fired and are being set up to find the leaks. He said his other ppl in the AD have been told Mullen, Durkin, Patterson and the Memphis coach. (This might explain why no one is sharing anything of importance on the AD side).He asked my trainer had he shared with anyone because he said info he had given out had wound up on a message board. Of course my guy said no and he asked me and I played ignorant. He said he didn’t want to be giving out insider information, someone place a bet with that info and it coming back to him in some capacity. This guy sounds super paranoid which leads me to believe something big is going on. With all the positive chatter today it seems that the AD is behind and have been given misinformation. With what I’ve heard this week personally and from insiders on this site...Gruden is happening!

Matts24012 (I think I got the numbers right). He's a highly respected and accurate poster on here. I don't know if he's ever missed on info he's brought here.

OldVol. He is an original OG that is also a respected poster with some connections.

A Matts flyby is equal to an Atlanta Vol flyby.

Ahhhh thanks
 
funny how he conveniently leaves out the condescending tone he used in the post that started that situation.

Exactly. He came in here acting all high and mighty and blamed fans for the problems at UT. He is a condescending prick IMO. I appreciate all info brought to this thread, even if it's not what I want to hear, but he had a pretty crappy way of going about it.

NP. This is the screenshot, take it for what it's worth:

I wish he would be more detailed on how he gets his information, he clearly stated that he doesn't work for UT. So how does he just happen to have so much inside information?

Explains the Beaver’s tweet about Adidas...

Any truth to Gruden using the haslems jet for the past few weeks. Seen online where he has been using their private jet

It was brought up and discussed a little however no one seemed to know if it was true or not. However a few said they had been told about it and others had seen it online.

Trey Wallace and Warner Agee seem to think so:

Seeing as no one did it, I got all of Harvester’s posts to combine all of Trey’s quotes:

Trey Wallace:

"It is a fluid situation with TN right now."

"Offered Gruden 10.2 million including incentives."

"Told by people in NFL & by people at TN that things are different than 2012"

“The money men have seen what has gone one for the past 7-8 years and are tired of it."

"TN is not going to go out and hire another coach like Dooley or Jones again."

“We are not reporting grumors. We are reporting truthfully what we are hearing."

"Gruden has had access to the Pilot plane since the GA game"

"There is a reason Jimmy H is offering up him to use his jet for whatever he wants."

"You are not going to see the media say anything in Knoxville because what happened in 2012."

"TN has a good chance at landing JG as their next coach. I put it at 60%."

“The Florida firing put TN is on notice."

"Curry does not want to throw in an interim coach for the last few games. It is not hurting ticket sales so what is the point of rushing."

"He is not coming back in 2018."

“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."

“If you want to fact check me, check my reporting over the last 4 months."

"TN wants to make the homerun hire."

“If JG wanted to put this to rest, he would have put it down over the past 4-5 weeks."

"Butch Jones is not coming back in 2018."

"They have a couple of coaches in their back pocket if they need them. Mullen is one of them."

"The rest of the list is: Gundy, Mullen, Brohm, Petrino"
 
Funny how he has to go to TOS to try to explain himself and complain about VN. He did not get the attention he was looking for. RESIST DP

and he can GTFO

If he knew anything at all, he'd post the name of the other candidate that the boosters were supposedly backing.

Could be wrong, but I think this guy kicked that one off:
