Official Jon Gruden Thread XLIV

Does anyone still think Gruden will be named coach? I sure as heck don't at this point

That's the one thing that just really sticks with me. He absolutely HAD to know the fans wanted him. But he never said (that I'm aware of) "I'm not interested"..."haven't been contacted"...or anything at all. Some here, yours truly included, took that as a sign he was in fact in play, and maybe in line, for the job.


If Gruden was never a candidate, knew it, and didn't say anything.....

I think Tee will make a great head coach one day... not today. He needs to work under a great head coach for more than one or two seasons before taking over a program as big as UT’s. It would be a recipe for disaster right now.

He literally would have Fulmer to guide him.
If he's hired at least support him.
 
Think we would find out real quick if Peyton wasn't backing Schiano. Don't think his people would want that hanging out there as being reported.

I'm curious to know if AV was in the skybox with Currie and Peyton during LSU game. I assumed this was the meeting of boosters(my thoughts were to approve staff money). If AV wasn't there, I'm thinking they chose select boosters they could influence to get behind this. All my opinion and may not be true. What I do know is Manning was with Currie that night.
 
Dear Stephen A, Curbstreet, Golic and ALL You other USELESS ESPN TWITS:


You are NOT journalists, but merely puppets of America's skewed media. What Vol Nation was protesting to so adamantly w regards to the possible hiring of Shi!ano was that he is NOT qualified to be a Head Coach at ANY SEC School, especially UT. With a record of 68-67 at Rutgers (ahem, the state university of NJ....??? Ha.) and 11-21 at Tampa Bay Bucs, GS is not qualified to clean bathrooms in Neyland. (and obviously you never read any of the many reports about how GS alienated players and coaches and fans, huh?)

Your attempt to tie in the Sandusky debacle and make UT fans sound like hypocrites for turning away GS at the door is shameful and laughable. How dare you make such ludicrous insinuations against one of the strongest NCAAF followings on the planet??

ESPN, once again you have shown your true colors, which btw, we believe will help identify you in the unemployment lines soon, real soon!

Did someone just say it would be okay to have a ten win ceiling? I go into every single season with national title aspirations. Whether it's feasable or not. It's playoff or bust with me every single season no matter what.

Peyton can get a front office deal without Haslam.

I know, but he will also have the backing of his UT buddies when he goes to Cleveland. I don't understand it, but that's what it looks like to me.
If I am Peyton, I am putting a bunch of distance between me and anyone named Haslam for a LONG time.

What do we think of Les Miles?

Overall HC record of 141-55 and a national championship. At this point, why the hell not? Considering no one is going to come near this job any time soon, I say if he wants it, what do we have to lose at this point? This is the lowest we've ever been. Flame away. :hi:

There was only one family of boosters and the AD. AV stated earlier today that he didn't hear a peep about Schiano until he (AV) heard on Sunday from one of the OSU assistants that he was about to be hired. Currie and Haslams did this on the down low.

Thank you for your efforts Preacher! We all have to do this and keep applying pressure. I have made calls as well- was surprised they actually answered!

Rick Barnes type of hire. I joked a couple of months ago that whoever was the CFB equivalent of Rick Barnes is who we'd end up with.

Well known with past success yet on the down slope of their career...safe but not aggressive hire.
