Someone figured out who he was and leaked his info a few weeks ago. The guy immediately deleted all his personal social media and the post was almost immediately deleted off this board.

edit:I'm really trying not to get banned for doxxing but it would be good for people to know that this guy is not a troll but part of an agenda.

Good copyright material being produced is all I know. May make for some good reading if all things could be proven.

Congrats on the your first, seriously. :good!:

Nobody's getting anyone depressed. Drama lovers look to hang on every new piece of information looking for the 'holy grail' and when one comes along they measure it with a micrometer, mark it with chalk and dissect it with an ax. We don't need 'feeling' monitors

No one minds an objective differing opinion as long as it isn't one that has been beat to death. How much have you invested in the history of this thread?

Thanks! I appreciate this! And honestly I've been lurking since September and finally decided to join/participate in October. I'm not meaning to stir any negativity or get anyone pissed off, I'm just trying to remain objective. I truly believe Gruden is a strong possibility and is still in play. I just hate seeing everyone get tore up over some dude tweeting cryptic messages that probably gives his ego a boost and that's it. I know he offered to help that one guy, which is awesome and deserves recognition. But I also find it hard to believe that he's as in deep as he claims he his. From what I can tell, the one guy who is 100% not a fraud is ATL. I'm sure there are others, but he's the only one I've paid close attention to that seems to have some bit of knowledge. No offense to any of the others, just my opinion.

No sources, just a theory.

What if in negotiating Butch's buy-out a commitment was made to Sexton that a certain number of his clients would be interviewed for the position.

What if UT agreed to this commitment, but at some point Gruden talk got serious enough that a MOU was signed.

Enter Sexton, who screams bloody murder and threatens to blow the top off of the buy-out agreement, break silence, etc. etc.

Enter Haslams, who according to many have been more loyal to Sexton than to UT with regard to personnel decisions - who begin pressuring Currie to honor deal with Sexton

This leads to delays in completing final deal (beyond MOU) with Gruden

Again, this is hypothetical, with no sources. But is a scenario where you could have a "done deal" (MOU) with Gruden, but still have major hurdles to deal with (i.e. Sexton and Haslams), before finalizing and announcing.

ER Vol: And his use of "We" is very suspect, like he is actually part of the negotiations. Again see above why folks involved don't really do that.

Absolutely a dead give-away.. it’s been one piece of his persona that I haven’t bought since day one.. weeks later he’s only added to that side of his profile, fraud.

I get what you are saying, and some things have happened with UT and VC capital. However none of it matches up to what beav is saying.

I am just passing along info that was told to me, all of them laughed at the thought of what beav was doing. Actually pissed a couple off who are UT grads/fans.

Regardless of his role in this, and no matter the reason, I think his scotch, golf, tux references are comical and a little desperate to appear worldly. Again, just the way I feel.

Not trying to step on any toes or make anyone mad.

Rebump per RockyTopSC request

RockyTopSC said:
The email that is circulating about the fund raising opportunity may or may not be real. It may not matter that it is out there if it is indeed real. However the name that is being associated with it is real and he works in fund raising for us. He is a damn good guy with a family and a job to take care of. He is not John or a big money booster and could be adversely impacted if he were to be seen as a leak of any type. I know many of you think it is fun to play PI but please do not be the one who names someone and gets them marked. I have said multiple times members of the AD are on this board. One of them has been posting in this thread. Consider the unintended consequence of posting any names of people that are working for a living. Please bump this to make sure it gets read.

No. Bubba brought up the VC not Beav. And one of them actually said that it wasn't castor ventures. And no details have been given about how the VC is involved.

The Beav is real.

How can you be so sure? I know some big money folks IRL and just can't see how his tweets match up with that.

Have you had a conversation with him? I am not trying to be an a**, just tired of getting played.

The folks I know have not heard of anything beav has said and they do know quite a bit. I will share if you will.

Hell, if I have a Gruden celebration party, I think blue jeans will be the most formal we're gonna get.

We're Tennessee fans, by golly. We don't need a tophat and tails to celebrate our good fortune.

Better to be over dressed than underdressed is my motto. I’m known for it. I can rock a pair of blue jeans just like the rest, but I love to dress up at any chance. Can’t help it. 😏

His assistants don’t need to be named immediately

Not saying it’s not true but Gruden can be named coach tomorrow then intoduce his staff the following week.

I wonder if someone could redo that gif from a few years ago with the Animal House scene where they are throwing stuff at the screen of Jones but with Mullen instead?

If they do, I hope they go drop it in the Mullen thread...they sure love coming over here and trolling us about Gruden

No announcement was EVER going to be made before next Sunday. Beaver tweets seem to say it's not Gruden. Imo

Question to those that can remember.........during the 2012 search, didn’t Gruden make a definitive statement that he was not coming to coach Tennessee? And am I correct that in everything I’ve seen so far, he has not made any statement like that this go around? Apologies if asked already, I’m mean there are 38 of these threads. Thanks.

I think beave knows a person or two but he’s leading VN to believe he is more than what he really is

What Beaver has going for him is that AV essentially (in my opinion) supported his information. But I think we have learned since, including AV's post today, is that 'done deal' to those guys refers to the resources to attract Gruden are in place and certain AA obstacles within UT have been cleared. It appears that is where we currently stand, waiting on Gruden to accept or not.

Beav was on with too much info leading up to the BOT meetings around Homecoming to be completely FOS.
