Yokoto or otherwise, if you ever get a chance to visit Japan, DO IT! Fascinating place. The people were so friendly. I survived with a tiny smattering of Japanese and a lot of charades, just getting lost there.

My favorite thing was to just go exploring, by train, by mountain bike, or just hiking. Especially go if you like the mountains and/or fishing!

I second that... Miss the food and the people a lot. I even took one of the China trips while I was there. Left something from East Tennessee on the Great Wall.

I would take Petersen if he’s willing to listen. Patterson just inked a new deal with TCU, and I don’t see him leaving. Shaw I like, but a lot of people think if he leaves Stanford, it will be for the NFL.

Leach is a wildcard. I’m a self-taught student of the Air Raid, and I love his offense. He’s had moderate success at traditionally unsuccessful programs. Would he interested to see him in the SEC.

I’m just not sold on Brohm, and I would include Chad Morris in that same vein. Their offenses are exciting, but they’re unproven as head coaches in larger programs.

You have to have down the list guys. Campbell would be my choice above Brohm, but Campbell’s buyout might be preclusive.

Morris does nothing for me.

A whole lot of usernames not usually seen on the Gruden threads, coinciding with this suddenly feeling like the rest of the FF threads!

Folks, you can consider us weenies here, but these threads are for friendly discussions, FRIENDLY debates, ribbing, gif posting, and a thousand other things.

Think of this place as a fun neighborhood bar. It is not a dark alley.

I just want it to be known I was anxiously waiting for the 3 day approval to post. I'm a million percent on board, and only posting in the Gruden thread for a reason.

I've purchased 180 beers since Thanksgiving. I've gone through all of them but 7. You guys are ALL awesome. Just wanted to let my "recency" be known. And stance.

Just an amazing place. Culture shock is really kind of fun. I know why they are so polite though, you have to be living that close together.

I remember seeing "almost" accidents and the drivers would just nod politely to each other and go about their business where in other places, it would have gotten ugly in a hurry.

I lived off base, and the realtor kindly asked me to just take my trash to the base because I would never figure out their system :D

Oh, porn flyers in the mail, not sealed, just flyers for various tapes for sale. I guess they don't let kids go to the mailbox there.

Les looks very much like a coach who has peaked...and would continue his slide down the back of the mountain if hired by UT.

You'll have to clarify "slide"? Miles was fired after a 9-3 season, which is better than any UT season since 2007.

I thibk that I came come to the rationalization that it's Gruden or Miles. Ill be fine with that!

If we were to get Miles, how much longer do you think he wants to coach? Do we do 5 years and have Tee as a OC/AHC to take over after 5?
