I think we need to set a criteria for OG usage. One can only be an OG ( my term, I made it up) if you were part of this madness in 2012...preferably in Gruden Thread I. Not saying you aren't Deezy, just trying to set some guidelines.

Beyond that you're a Grudenite, or disciple of Gruden...make up your own name.

OG should be a position of distinction...we've taken a lot of ish.

Amen Boro.

OG's rock!

Don't let it, I'm not. This person filled me in on almost everything last time and wasn't happy when Jones name started being tossed about internally. The fact things are so silent actually plays well into some of the positive rumors from outside. Obviously doesn't make them true, but it gives me some room for optimism.

Basically, all I've heard since UGA is:
1) Timing isn't set, but Jones only has room to lose to Bama. That's done.
2) Jones was denied the use of a Haslam jet for recruiting for the first time the week after UGA.
3) Again timing not set, but USC sealed his fate.
4) No word on next coach, but it isn't Gruden.

Line all that up with other rumors, and some mesh pretty damn well. I'm also encouraged by the ability of the AD to keep any and all moves on their end so well insulated from the public. Of course that might also mean Currie is absolutely tone deaf to the fans and totally inept as an AD.

I hope that this is just the AD putting out a smokescreen before we actually hire Gruden. I get a little bit nervous with any news like this because I was all the way Gruden in 2012 too. But I'm going to hold strong in my faith and stay at 80%.
 
I tried to tune in to Tony B show since someone mentioned Trey Wallace was coming on, couldn’t handle it for more than 5 minutes.. just terrible, terrible radio.

I have a question. Why do ppl outside of this thread keep posting about other candidates, etc? Because if they have been following this thread you would think they wouldn't waste their time talking about other candidates. In here we seem to believe Gruden is coming or have a legitimate shot at getting him. Are we the delusional ones or are they turning a blind eye to Gruden? I believe at this point it's Gruden or Bust!

I will confer with Jake. His words have strong medicine.

Is this the same Jake who created a cartoon by chance?..if so played golf back in the 90's with him here in Orl and he made a cartoon of all of us with Jake in it after the round..Lot of fun
 
Guy on TOS asked why Gruden hasn't put out a statement to shoot the rumors down if he is indeed a friend to TN.

Brent_Hubbs said:
As he told someone after the last set of grumors 5 years ago. I'm not the one who said I was a candidate so why you I say I'm not. I do think he likes the chatter out there about him coaching again whether it's Tennessee, Tampa Bay or some other job somewhere.

So I don't see him killing any rumor. And I'm not sure he's as happy as he was five years ago doing MNF and I think MNF is in trouble at ESPN. So his outlook on his next step in life is probably different than it was 5 years ago.

I'm not certain that I was in on Gruden I, however Gruden-mania made me create an account. 2012 was very intimidating to me because I was trying to figure out all the acronyms, who erryone was, etc.

I left Gruden 2012 believing that there was more behind the scenes that was not public knowledge. I never faulted anyone for stating what they knew or heard.

Are the Gruden Threads from 2012 anywhere to be found? I’m on mobile so not sure if I’m able to see them.
