Actually this is more how I feel.

I'm not sure I believe the Gruden being told Les Miles is it.

I can see Gruden telling us he's NOT it, but why would we tell him Les IS it first?

With the change at the top of the booster pyramid, the want for a homerun hire, etc., if you believe that's the path we've been on, if you believe people have been meeting with Gruden, if you believe it was close... he would have to tell US he's out... not us telling him.

Otherwise, boosters that just took charge would... not be happy, theoretically. Right?

I think the boosters who took charge had Miles as their #2 so if thats true I assume they would be happy(ish)... If it were "Gruden or Bust" they wouldn't have given a #2.

ATTENTION ALL GRUDENITES!!!

Hey guys, got a few textx so just dropping in for a quick second.

The mods may delete a post for one reason or another from time to time. Because, well, they're mods that's what they/we do. Typically, it's harmless.

The problem comes when we have someone say "are posts getting deleted?" and then a dozen more ask. Since we don't get into discussing deleted posts on the board, (as per the rules posted at the top of this forum) those posts get deleted too.

Now we have a full blown consiracy theory that either big news is going down or someone is trying to cover up something, all over something probably on the level of a nsfw pic or the equivalent.

With a thread this size and with this much traffic, there has to be some ground rules. If you ever unsure about a post feel free to review the rules, that might help, for starters. Otherwise, feel free to email me (vol_freak@yahoo.com), but be advised that I'm fighting to keep up with my inbox right now, and I'm losing.

Thanks guys and gals. Go Vols. Hope we have an announcement soon.

:hi:

I'm out .... back to work I go.
You have to work?!

No I get that, but wouldn't your #2 only come into play AFTER your #1 said no?

I just think the direction of the communication is important. If we told Gruden to buzz off (too much money, control, whatever), that doesn't make sense to me. You don't go whale hunting, promise big hire, "boosters going to keep upping the amount by $1 million until he says yes", whatever, and then YOU tell HIM no.

Does that make sense? I'm not sure if I am saying it correctly.

Alternatively, if he told US no, then sure, move on to #2 by all means.
