@BradFullington
Sources: Gruden signed a MOU w/ @Vol_Football last Friday & wanted 2 stipulations:
1. Seven days to put his staff together
2. Complete control.
@John_Currie would not agree. Wanted to announce coach Sunday, day after season ended. We got Schiano. #FireJohnCurrie #facts

Got this canned response from an email I sent his morning:

I have yet to get a reply of any kind.
 
He’s a fairly significant booster who lends planes for university travel. He has some knowledge of the workings of the search because of that.

Atlanta Vol has given very little actual detail. Lots of what he said goes thru the telephone game and misconstrued.

Example: AV validated Beav’s information.

In fact, he did not. He said Beav appears to be connected because the golf courses he plays are ones you don’t just hop on as an average dude. He and Beav connected on twitter. Says Beav is probably connected.

But the people that think AV as a significant booster validates what beav said are wrong.

Actually sure they talked through email. He said there was no doubt he knew people and had some insight. What started it was the golf course. They mess each other after and ATL wouldn't elaborate on exactly what they talked about.
 
With you all the way man, I get it. But you got lit up all day the other day by folks that don't.

PSA: Everyone keep calm and carry on- call, tweet, email. Stall any action while the folks that can bring this to a head are working on in.

'Member when I said that the people who could do the most with the info, had the info?

I 'member.

Yes. The golf part was one thing, but AV then went on to say essentially "Yeah, the guy knows people."

Not willing to dig through posts on my phone, but this was probably during a down time on the board because even I missed it until someone quoted it several threads back, and it had happened even further back.
 
Got something to say? I'm always here...but with the current situation in the AD, there is just not much to say. We have a crisis of leadership that has to be fixed before the coaching matter even needs to be addressed.

It's funny how the boards resident doubting Thomas has become Richard the Lionhearted when he thinks nobody is around. You've been a wilting violet this whole time with your "Grudenometer" reading updated multiple times daily, until now, when we have an obvious issue of leadership. All of a suddenly you've painted your face Orange and are rallying the troops.

You have accusations, level 'em. Or...continue being passive aggressive. Seems more your style.

Boom!

I got one yesterday (Wednesday) from this lady. Notice she says “On Giving Tuesday” yet it was Wednesday I sent it to her 🙄
