Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLIV

[jave36]

You think it’s from a fake Facebook account she’s been friends with for years?

Of Dale Jones?

I don't know the tenure of that account or the relationship to DJ of the person who took the screenshot.

 

[BeecherVol]

yeah, that's a tough sell at this stage of the game.

If I know I'm not getting him I'm finding the softest, quickest landing I can build that gives the perception that I was all in and it just didn't work for him.

It's not gonna be taken well by all but I'm not letting the volcano flow anymore if it's over.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Well it’s not fake. Unless y’all think someone has been running a Dale Jones fake account for years.

And that’s cause he didn’t run ten miles. He just teasing us with the 10.3 number.

Ah come on. Some of y'all are really grasping in here lol

 

[drvenner]

10.3 miles..... How many laps would that take?

Whoever keeps saying it's fake has to take that many.

 

[31VFL]

Ya’ll gonna have to lock me up in a padded room until this is over.

I go from one absolute to the other in the blink of an eye

Ron, is the Dale Jones post legit and verified?

I have stayed in the mindset of it is not happening, until I see it happen. It is a blast to follow though, and it is nice to see some posters be happy again for the first time in a while. Lol

 

[DD4ME]

Well hell, I wasn't gonna drink tonight, but I think I'll pour some bourbon and enjoy the ride this eve. Ain't **** on tv anyway!🥃

With u

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

It’s the talk of the town but there’s nothing of any substance. There will be no leaks on Curries end unless he wants them. Brice, hyams, Hubbs, etc they are all just guessing and going off tips. Who ever the next coach is...i would be willing to bet money that a national media guy will break it bc Currie wants it done that way. Fieldman or someone like that.

Or maybe someone from ESPN?

 

[InVOLuntary]

I don't know that Jon Gruden is gonna be coach but this is one heck of a fun ride.

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

We might still get Gruden but I don't really buy this ChattVol guy as the only person who knows its going down.

ATLVol also said it was going down. He said Wednesday was the pivotal day and that if he posted nothing afterwards to take that as a positive sign.

To my knowledge he hasn't posted yet which goes along with what ChattVol is saying about it being a done deal and this being a misinformation campaign. Also LWS is saying it's a 7.5% chance we get Gruden which is an upgrade from the 5% chance he said Wednesday night when he confirmed reports that some people were saying it's a done deal and Gruden signed the contract.

 

[HankHill]

Or maybe someone from ESPN?

Yea someone like that. Just depends who Currie has build a relationship. I highly highly doubt it will be local

 

[Ron Swanson]

Ah come on. Some of y'all are really grasping in here lol

Why else would a coach thats rumored to be on Gruden’s staff, who’s mentioning he’s coming to the game this weekend, put 10.3 in his post knowing that’s the rumored number for Gruden‘s contract?

You really think he ran 10.3 miles? Cmon bro!

Currie strikes me as entirely too smart to let this volcano boil over. Fly another name through a guy like Hubbs or make more overt statement and move on.

 

[BigZiti09]

It’s his legit account. Has another mutual friend of mine who has a brother who played on the 98 team. Also basilio who has had him on the show numerous times.

You don’t have to trust me. Other people are posting screenshots of it now.

Yes AV has posted since saying that but nothing really about the search. He was giving some tickets away.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Someone in the Gruden thread (i think) said that the players knew it was Gruden. Have a hard time believing that. What's your thoughts?

 

[HankHill]

I don’t believe that. No way that gets held in between the amount of staff that interact with players.

Here is it from me. Obviously different than yours so its def legit

To screw with us?

 

[BleedorangeinGA]

Are there any comments under the post by his FB friends? Did he say anything else after posting?

Inquiring minds want to know.

 

[Hammer85]

To screw with us?

All of these players and ex players are not doing anything to just screw with us.

 

[DD4ME]

I believe they know we are gonna land a whale and trust who they are hearing it from. I believe they think that whale is Gruden wether it really is or not.

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

Well, to be fair, the noise has weakened considerably from Weds-Thurs.

Which is expected if the reports Wednesday night that it's "a done deal" and he signed the contract were true.

If Gruden is actually signed then you can expect all the key players to now start creating false stories like the one Dennis Dodd is reporting about Tennessee having concerns about Gruden or Jimmy Hyams saying no contact was ever made with Gruden to quiet the noise for the next 10 days before an official announcement can be made.

If you agree with the position that there was never gonna be an official announcement while the season is still ongoing then everything we've seen today and yesterday should be expected.

 

[Orange Studs]

I don't know that Jon Gruden is gonna be coach but this is one heck of a fun ride.

Totally agree invol. This is this most fun I have on here in a while and considering what this season has done to us, we needed something like this. :good!:

 

[Chief Vol 13]

The number has been 10.2 up until that post lol. I think it's more likely that he actually ran 10.3 miles personally. We'll have to agree to disagree.

 

[tomq_123]

If Brady Hoke wins both games can we just name him permanent interim and keep the coach search going on indefinitely?

I look forward to having people with sources on the other site with sources saying we are gonna resurrect Bill Walsh whole others claim he's not even a real person. Jon Reed will have the nation's most watched cable sports news show.

No. I need to get some actual work done at work.
