These coaching searches will cause them to get rid of early signing period. It’s awful what’s having to happen and timing

Another example of what happens when you get a bunch of “smart” people in a room and they come up with new rules for the “benefit” of others. Reminds me of some of our lawmakers and politicians.

They come up with things that sound good and look good on paper but just don’t work.

Thinking about whether Beav is legit, the "stalking horse" comment is really kind of interesting if the guy is an aspiring MBA type or an arbitrageur as it were.

So LWS says what was dead is back up again?

I’m still holding some hope for Gruden. He said on Mike and Mike he was respectful of coaches. Maybe they are floating bad info.

Hard to roll with that though. Jimmy is so adamant.

Trying to keep the faith.

Did Larry suggest we have something lined up if Gruden says no? Or that we would start the process then?

Lined up as in "have they kicked the tires" to see where they can go next?

If anyone, including Larry said no, I wouldn't believe it.

But it wouldn't be serious until they knew Gruden was a hard "no" and they did all they could.

I've thought for a while guys like Ergen and Fulmer have been courting Gruden while Currie was left to scout and talk to the others. The best way to cover all bases.

Y'all think Chad Morris is on the list? I know I keep bringing him up but he seems so much more logical than guys like Norvell or Brohm. I'm not suggesting he's near the top but the doomsday scenario should be no lower than Morris.

Chattavol saying not until after season. Don’t think the others have said a date before that besides babyvol have they? But yes those guys are full Gruden.

The narrative does make sense. I am 💯% all in. My only question that has me going with babyvol's timeline instead of chattvol is the recruiting factor. If all the recruits were held off until Vandy weekend how can we make a pitch without a coach in place?If they wait til season is over, do they bring him Gruden in after the game ends and then break news late Saturday night/early Sunday? Seems they would want to break it at a time of day when they have a captive audience. Late Saturday after a potential loss or early Sunday when most are in bed or at church doesn't seem to fit. Recruits would be blowing up social media.

That makes me think it happens after MNF on Tuesday like babyvol said. We will more than likely lose against LSU and be eliminated from a bowl. No reason to worry about taking anything from players at that point. Why not give the returning players a reason to audition for their new coach against Vandy?

Just my 2¢

I still don’t think it’ll get past Mullen

Norvell and Brohm aren’t even on my list. Give me Morris Durkin or even Venables over them. I want guys who have either won big or been apart of a big time winner as a coordinator.

Forget all this Mickey Mouse Butch Jones type winning.

Yeah. And that's been going on for awhile now.

Don't confuse that with Gruden being a passing thought to Currie however. He's all in on option A too.

Option A

Option A

Option A.......







Option B

With all the money being offered I just don’t see how we could miss. Here is 10 mil Jon. Not enough? Okay, here’s 11. What will it take? Don’t take no for an answer. Winning will get us his salary back and more. Let’s go!
