Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLII

What's with the Tampa stuff?

Former NFL GM hearing Jon Gruden's name brought up in possible Buccaneers vacancy - CBSSports.com

 

[HankHill]

We interviewed him when we hired Dooley didn't we?

Yes we passed over him for Dooley from what I’ve heard.

Are you kidding me?

No. Hamilton was scared that Whittingham is a Scientologist.

 

[SmokeMSJ]

Just imagine for a second what it would be like to have Gruden as the head coach of our beloved Vols. Recruiting lights out, our coaching our rivals, beating top 10 opponents, winning championships, the joy!

The fanbase deserves it...

No, that is Chris Peterson. Whittingham is a Mormon. Might apply to him to though.

Looks like Taylor might be gone. Tweeted "next Lamar *insert some emoji*" (Deleted that tweet) then tweeted this

Pretty sure he wanted to play QB in college and Louisville was recruiting to be the next Lamar Jackson

It’s a shame “some school” is going to talk him into QB where he is marginal, or switched to WR in spring practice.

Don’t follow your dreams... follow rational thinking

Sounds like billboard removal rumor from a month ago

Concerning, no?

Somebody here can confirm or deny it I think.

In the current climate, confirmations and denials don’t carry much weight

True

Odd that there is such a huge disconnect between Larry and Deerpark

Go with whatever Larry says. Honest question what has DP ever called to make people think he is connected?

But LWS doesn’t think it’s a great chance at all

DP says no way, LWS says people want it, but tiny chance

Everyone else is naming staff and salary already.

Most of the uniform stuff for a few years. He definitely had some connections at one point, Im not sure about now.

Larry would say 5% even if he was at 45%.

 

[rekinhavoc]

This all has a WWE story line feel to it. If this is a troll job it is an elaborate one.

Bottom line I will support whoever they hire.

Just give me a hardnosed coach with a pulse .

 

[PowerOrange]

He might go up to 10 if he sees the contract signed first hand.

Lol just to let y’all know this guy posted in the gruden thread we’re all asshats and should kick rocks because of how Boro and DTO were talked about tonight.

Lol, expected.
I never rain on the parade in the Gruden thread and really like most of the posters (and posts).
I believe there's a chance to get Gruden and don't insult insiders even in other threads. But anyone that's offended by me asking how you become the number one source of information, without ever having brought information?

But I saw how quickly they turned on LWS. " he doesn't know sh!t anymore". Until he said things that sounded positive. Then all of a sudden, "him backing it is huge!"

 

[Vols2DaWall]

We should stop posting anything from volnugs. Literally anyone can go and whatever they want.

And you gotta laugh at the Chavis rumors. Who would ever believe that if JG had accepted the job and was interviewing staff that he would go to Chavis?
