There is something like a chicken and egg problem here. If others were more respectful of the intentions of this thread, then there wouldn't be so much disagreement.

I can see that. There is just not much discussion going on anywhere else on the forum and since I spend most of my day in front of a computer and bleed orange I like to discuss lol.
 
Wonder if this is how the negotiations went??

Correct me i'm wrong, but wasn't there a poster that had a friend/connection to someone in the AD that said to had the "press room" ready for a particular date (maybe the 21st). This was a few Grudes back, but I seem to remember something like that. He caught some flack about it, because they aren't usually told to set it up until a few hours beforehand.

This entire timeline does not make sense if you don't have a guy like Jon Gruden.

Why keep Butch after the Georgia game?
Why keep him after Alabama and Kentucky?

Why hasn't Gruden publicly address not wanting the position?

This fanbase deserves so much more than what it is getting, from Kiffin to Dooley to Butch. Now, another unproven coach who will be gone in 3-4 years because we're tired of being an 8-4 team and never winning the East.

All signs point to Gruden and if not this administration has some explaining to do if we find ourselves with Butch 2.0.

They point to Gruden because we want them to point to Gruden. It could just be that Currie sucks and is handling all of this poorly.

That being said, I still believe it's Gruden. I just recognize the fact that we are biased and could make anything "point to Gruden" if we tried hard enough.

I think maybe this was brought up very early in the 2017 Grumors , bit I truly feel that Peyton is in this search to provide advice on a PRO coach. He has been out of college for so long, he would know very little about the coaches in NCAA. JMO.

No, we feel like we've paid for Lynyrd Skynyrd tickets, but are getting the Legends of Southern Rock tribute band...

Anyone else at the Volunteer Jam when Lynyrd Skynyrd made their first appearance after the plane crash and played Free Bird without singing the lyrics? They asked the crowd to sing. One of the most moving concert experiences of my life.

Very interesting that it was being told to media members this weekend yet, it's just now being reported (Monday 12pm).
Atlanta, Beav, Orange!!!! What do you guys have to say about this? SOON!

Yes, I was told on Friday night by boosters that controlled leaks would start either on the 20th or on the 26th which I posted on Saturday morning. Sounds like Will West has been told some things today, but I don't think he's buying it.

Edit: For all I know they're trolling both of us.

Will West is said that Boosters have told him that Gruden is a done deal, and they are waiting until SEC Championship game to announce. He said he doesn't believe it because it would take attention away from UT to announce then and they have nothing to lose to not announce it. He said he doesn't believe them at all.
