Official Jon Gruden Thread XLVIII

[ER Vol]

what is this? Requiem for a dream?

Ha! Very under rated movie.

 

[superdave1984]

It was reported in the last thread that he could be putting assistants together for whomever he chose.


Whether that’s true or not we’ll see

See, this I don't understand. Unless whoever he is courting has told him to.

 

[Leximax]

Nothing really. PaulVol popped in and dropped a Christmas Vacation gif.

Knuck is absent.

Exile (boy) is locked out of VN and desperately trying to get back in.

Some dude said there was a wrinkle.

Not much else... Cheers!

Thank you!

 

[NickZ4UT]

Multiple people said last night he doesent know a thing

Tifwiw

It's getting to the point now where it feels like no one has any idea what is going on. Not in a bad way just that Fulmer seems to be running a tighter ship.

 

[preacherwebb]

Hello fellow gruden lovers😍😍. I know most hate when someone ask for updates about what's happened. Just been to the Dr with my wife and we're expecting our 3rd bundle of joy in July of 2018. Any updates would be greatly appreciated

Can someone clue in us poor helpless females! Pretty please.

rumors fulmer is interviewing coaches rather than just one at a time. info that maybe we talked to gruden last night. boro thinks they talk tomorrow. petersen to be interviewed as well. some not very exciting names floated out. honestly, same old same old.

whole lotta nothing.
hurry up and wait.
:thud:

 

[Smokey X]

This...everyone read this twice!

Soooo, you're saying there's a chance

 

[IM4TN]

this place has went crazy with invaders the past 2 days.

And one of'em done snatched up Exile an runnoft with'em.

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

No, I'm just a guy. But I've denied it before and people keep asking. We seriously need to start making odds and taking bets on AV's alleged alter ego on here. Someone needs to win something for being right.

Gruden til it Ain't!

I'm watching you.

 

[TennGirl0723]

Are we excited???

 

[VFL-82-JP]

I’m still trying to understand this and I’ve seen the movie a million times. I know he said he wouldn’t comment anymore so he left a gif.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN??? Everyone seems so excited over it but I can’t figure out why?

Didn't Atlanta Vol (using Paul Vol account) say that he was giving the account back to its owner and leaving us? Thought that was the last thing he said.

In which case, the Chevy Chase Christmas gif was posted by the real Paul Vol, a completely different fella.


EDIT: Yep, here it is. Couldn't quote it directly, because it is in one of the old locked threads, but here's what he said:

It’s great, to be, a Tennessee Vol!!! I said, it’s great, to be, a Tennessee Vol!!!

Yes! We sure did it, didn’t we!?!? This is one of the greatest moments in the University of Tennessee’s History!

We WON the war!!!

We all deserve a big pat on the back because if it wasn’t for our commitment to this great University, I don’t think this would have ever happened! This was the fans doing! This was VolNations accomplishment and everyone deserves to be accredited; Coming from me personally, I would just like to say thank you to everyone on VolNation for rallying the troops and fighting for what we believe in!

With that said, I have enjoyed my time here and have enjoyed the discussions we’ve had. I hope I was able to shed some light on some things and I hope I was able to help aid in the cause. From this moment forward, I will not be commenting on the coaching search and I will be giving this account back to its owner. I have the utmost respect for Phillip Fulmer and hope everyone will get behind him and believe in him to do the best job possible. Phillip Fulmer is the greatest man I have ever known and he loves the University more than anyone, and I know, with all my heart, there’s truly no one better for the job.

Thank you all for letting me be a part of this!

[BubbaWms]

Go on.....as in more info😁 You should know by now

I do know by now and it did not come from here and said I would never but I'm tired of this drama !
I will say I wish my long lost friend would have texted me a week ago instead of just 4 hours ago !
Mondays are usually boring TV wise....thinking about changing my luck tonight and watch MNF

 

[allvol]

My fear is what he considers a home run is vastly different than we do.

CPF might consider a consistent 9 wins per year a HR.

Only if 9 wins gets championships, which we know won't cut it in the SEC. Therefore, I think CPF has his loftier goals.

 

[rockyhdr]

Maybe he is attending the dinner tonight...clue to his identity?

Or maybe there is something that we should be thankful for...like early Xmas present?

:thud:

Waiting for a whole lotta rosie?

 

[Batman1948]

It almost looks like everyone is throwing sh!t against the wall just to see what sticks. It shouldn't be this hard. Someone mentioned earlier, everyone that has an opening has filled that opening. I really hope Fulmer can pull this team out of this mess. We deserve better.

 

[Dudleys87]

See, this I don't understand. Unless whoever he is courting has told him to.

I know it doesent make sense but it’s a possibility none the less.

To me it’s lazy and at best a partially interested practice by both coaches.

 

[dmsick]

See, this I don't understand. Unless whoever he is courting has told him to.

Exactly what I think (hope). When Gruden reportedly contacted potential assistants it got leaked. This way he's not directly in the loop.

 

[Smokey X]

This is Peyton's dinner with Haslam's and the other boosters tonight.

So they are all gathering to watch MNF for the announcement...

 

[redge]

Redge, any of those in XXL Tall?

All the sizes I have are listed on the website. I got a couple hoodies up with the print on the back, they'll be on the 2nd page.

 

[dancinoutlaw]

Fulmer is not interviewing people for assistant positions.... the head coach once named will do that

Multiple reports of Fulmer reaching out to Tee and Steele. If he's thinking about those guys as the HC, he's not wanting to keep the AD title very long.

 

[Behr]

I just got an email from someone I haven't talked to in several years. She congratulated me on Tennessee's new coach. Her son is in a position to know. Guess we'll see if he was right.

 

[VolNotInNorthCack]

Thank you!

You're welcome.

 

[johnsonbrewer]

Way too many speculations today. We need enema.

Haven't seen him/her on here today

 

[Smokeyshowl66]

You know, I hate the overblown pageantry of recruiting announcements, but I'm gonna be watching MNF tonight like the mother of all National Signing Days...

And said coach supposedly was???
