Official Jon Gruden Thread 34

[Vols_Life]

Ok, I am going to say it...do not care who gets their panties in a bunch, but here goes...

The whole "if he does not want it, he should say so", "he should not keep stringing us along", "blah, blah, blah", etc. type comments are ******* pathetic. If the deal is going down, he is not on your preconceived schedule...it is a business transaction. As some have said, Currie will either get it done (a la support from Boosters) or it will be someone else, period. I also am impatient as hell, but realize that what I want means nothing in the grand scheme. Thus, patience grasshoppers. It will all be done SOON!

Like I said, kind of skeert! I do think his system being adopted by others has diluted the potency of it somewhat. Who knows, the guy can flat out coach and he may well have further tweaks to his system that will blindside a lot of coaches. I hope they don't land him.

I think Gruden has been game planning to get back into coaching for years now. He has probably watched and studied football more than anybody on earth the last 10 years. He has watched and seen up close all levels. I got to believe he is ready! If he is coaching again it is now. I BELIEVE!!!!!!:rock: SOON!!!!!! GRUDEN TO TENNESSEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Heck of a nice gesture. If you care anything about duck hunting, you have an open spot in my AR club. First time I met Fulmer was at the club next to ours.

Great idea. Maybe I could take some fellow Grudenites to Burnt Pine Plantation for some quail hunting. Great hunting, awesome dogs, amazing food and they also have overnight accommodations complete with a full bar/cigars.

I can see Fla hiring Chip Kelly and with Ga with Smart and Tenn trots out Mullen or PJ Fleck or Norvell. Would not surprise me one bit. The Currie trying to sale these names to the Tenn fans. I just dont have faith in those clowns at UT.

 

[Squints]

Wendy (err, Daniela) is thinking I need an intervention. What do I tell her? Squints has never been a quitter and he won't start now.

 

[UTVolinExile]

Noise in the chatter is a good thing...Keep the faith.

Exactly.

 

[RockyTopSC]

I know your close to Dale and may not be willing to talk. I respect that. But, is your feeling we are moving closer to closure ?

We are moving along. I have been asked to be cautious of what I post. I am still calm and of the position if we do not land him it's is not due to lack of effort on the Tennessee side. It is interesting to watch the show play out on this board for sure.

[austin_vol]

Just for my own sanity I’m reading this as AV is fed up with the AD and is giving his tickets away....that way it helps me to not get my hopes up

 

[jay-vol]

It didn't sound like good news.... :huh:

that's what I took from it to lol

 

[Lovesomebigorange]

I was kind of thinking the same. But just continued to watch the awesomeness of people who are taking little VFL's or well deserving Vets get free tickets. Making my night a little brighter.

As in bad?

 

[ER Vol]

He did in this post in case he doesn't see your request:

Ok..can't link to it for some reason, odd. Anyway this is the link, I am sure it has been posted by now

Fundraiser for Kayla Yazzie by Philip Cooper-Barry : Desmond Hill Memorial

Thanks Sona!

ATL. 24 year Army vet. Deployed 4 times. I really appreciate your offer. GOD knows i would love to go. However, i would rather a young one be able to go. I take care of my elderly father and with this short of notice. I couldnt make it. But. Take the children. Lets build the future fan base with what looks to be a awesome new beginning. THANKS. Maybe if you ever offer again. I will take you up on it.

Thank you for serving!

Have you told your wife about Daniela yet????

 

[G8rh8r]

Ok boys, I’m off to my seven year old’s Veterans Day music program at her school. She has a speaking part where she thanks my Dad for his service in the Air Force during Vietnam. I’m so excited to see this.

Keep the faith, Grudenites. I’ll check back in later.

 

[Lurkerin]

On a flight from Dallas to Chicago at the moment.

Paid for in flight internet so I could keep up.

True VFL IMO...

 

[amarcus07]

Gonna shy away from football for just a sec here.
Long time lurker. My Snapchat name that I've had since '12 is Grudenite07 if you want to know how I feel/where I stand.

Anyway, seeing the posts here about certain members helping each other out (tickets, monetarily, helping with medical expenses, etc.) has shown me that it's true that nothing beats stronger than the heart of a Volunteer.

Grude Evening, Guys.

Whether it happens are not, the outcome does not negate or validate the truth that an acceptance should have been announced by now.

You and your father are taken care of.

Please email that address that is out there and reference your VN screen name so i know it is you etc.

wow, class act

 

[Sara Clark]

Currie you better hurry up and get pen to paper. If you don't, Volnation is going to explode and hunt you down with pitchforks. I've tried my best to keep things positive, but it's to the point of pandemonium. Your prompt attention would be appreciated!

F-it, but...




















Where the hell is Daniela?

 

[edyeary]

My best friend was killed in Iraq in 2006. I'm sorry for your loss bro.

Lost one in Iraq in 2004. Also a fella I worked with for 12 years offed himself last week. Found out he had incurable lung cancer. Nothing in words can make this **** better.

 

[RollinVol]

Good news on my front. My 15 year old who never really has cared to go to the games. Hey. He will be there with me Saturday night. That’s two home games in a row. Grude on
