Here's the thing: if Gruden comes out and says he's not interested in the job, people will point to Saban and Alabama and say he's just playing coy.

Currie can't come out and say they're not going after Gruden. That would be weird and a total break of protocol. He also can't say they were turned down because the first question the next coach will be the same old "how does it feel to be the second choice?" question.

So the only way there's a clean break is something like the CBS article - which everyone here immediately laughed at and dismissed. Lol.

You can't control the first altogether, I agree. And you would still have some die hards that hold on until you hire PJ Fleck.


He's also not some new phenomenon we took half a week to get to know after firing a coach and we can't get up. It wouldn't take much effort to see through "We re not sure he's the best fit".

The interesting angle is Gruden himself. Loves UT, Johnny, Peyton, Charles Davis, (countless others affiliated with UT). His wife's family is in Orange neck Central, his son is attending the school. Im not sure how his ego and or pride out weighs all that.


But there's enough out there to at least not question UTs desire and effort to pull it off. You could add to that pretty easy as well through the media and move on to whoever.

If you want people to stop asking about chili simmering on the stove you put the queso and chips on the table.

You float a new name.

I don't buy for a second that they're actually not interested in him. But what I think they're trying to do is make it seem like he wouldn't have been successful anyway. It's a long shot but the only shot they have. (if you think he rejected the job.)

Y’all getting hung up since I said tweet. It’s a Facebook post. I was writing it while rocking my son to sleep because my friend had just send it to me.

BigZ's buddy Wallace thinks the article is coming from UT's side:

Oh I know what your saying and agree in what is actually their stance.

Im just not sure you put out the impression that you thought he was "flawed" for at least or just part of the reason he's not here. You might pull that off with anyone else but he has become a deity like figure here over the years. I don't see that being accepted.

I think you have better options. IMO

If it's over. Lol

Which I don't think it is.
