Yeah , I never know if people are suggesting that I get one. I've never put one up and don't really know why. It's not like I don't know how. Been here over two years and no avatar. There are some people here though that can make you just about anything you ask.

I'm a little late to this party. First I'll say I'm a sunshine pumper according to a poll on another thread. But I was wondering why are you guys so sure Gruden will come. He wasn't coaching 4 years ago when we fired Fulmer and he didn't take the job then. Nor was he coaching when we hired Dooley. He owned land in Knoxville then and he was married to a former UT cheerleader then too. I'll bet if he was asked he really liked Knoxville then too. He is probably offered every college or NFL job that comes open and yet he has yet to take one. I'm not trying to be an ******* here just wondering is there any tangible sane reason I should abandon support of our current coach for Gruden. I mean its an obvious upgrade if he is interested.

*Edit I don't wanna sift through 6000 posts of what I'm sure has been classy courteous and well reasoned debate to find this information.

A few sources have said he is interested and some have said we are as well. You would have to read through the thread to find them. Nobody is saying it's a done deal but one poster and most of us are skeptical of his info. Your best bet is to read post 15 in this thread. There is an article there. We decided to put it there because we have had to answer this question a few times now. It has nothing to do with Tennessee. It just let's you know he is ready to come back.

I know a few. I'm not willing to say them because my guy spoke to me in confidence.

I will say this, Dooley knows his days are numbered unless if he has zero wins in October. Hart is looking for anything to hang his hat on because he personally believes Dooley is turning things around.

Hart might make a decision to save his job though. Seems some folks are pushing for a UT guy as athletic director.
