Official Jon Gruden Thread III

Not open for further replies.
Not hard in this monstrosity that used to be a good discussion thread. Now it is like a group of teenagers arguing about who gets the last slice of pizza.

The necessity to scroll through 5-6 pages of arguing back and forth to get to a real post is growing old.

Agreed. So many new people on here that are negative.
 
No, it wasn't. The only connection Shannon EVER had with the UT DC job was his agent putting his name out there to media. Period. He wasn't contacted formally or informally. Dooley's ego didn't have the chance to get in the way because he was never on Dooley or Dave Hart's list.

Shannon was "having discussions" with every DC opening last season. He was so strongly considered for all of those jobs that he ended up taking a job as a position coach at TCU 2 weeks before fall came. Come on.

If you want to continue to live in message board fantasy land on Randy Shannon, you're welcome to, but you're absolutely, completely wrong.

But but Dooley crushed that in the 11th hour. It's been confirmed by multiple sources here that he was almost hired. It's gotta be true.
 
Rut Roh Scotty.......we got a problem.


Horn Dawg Jimmy just asked Mrs Haslam if she would like to make fourteen dollars the hard way!

Abort! Abort!

If you don't mind me asking, what is your position in all this craziness?
 
Y'all think this shlt is crazy and divided now?

Given our history we'll probably go down to Columbia and win the damn game...this place will look like a scene from 300.

This is probably the best response I've read all morning. Every one going different directions. I'm not in the know but I don't see how any coach could keep there job after the performance on the field we have seen the last 3 years.

It's unacceptable and needs fixed. Fans will hurt the university where it hurts the most if change doesn't happen and soon.
 
These aren't my comments. They are Doug Matthews on 104.5 this morning. Chill.

..and sorry Orange Blazer wasn't being smarmy with you. You know how reading something is without hearing inflections in the voice and such you can't always tell how it was meant.

Uh...boom. EF Hutton has just dropped the hammer on the RS crap.
 
Last year...after the season.

Boro, the one thing that reall y confuses me is Rucker's stance on the whole matter. I, in a couple of weeks, will be a guest on the Chris Treece Show and Swain and Rucker; I am just thoroughly confused as to why Rucker always acts so offended about the Gruden issue. He has talked to ESPN and has told them that there is mutual interest but that is it.

Is Treece, Ainge and Swain just that much more in the loop or is Rucker just in left field...

I have never heard this UNC talk before. I'm very interested in reading more. Can someone please post a link to an article?

and I mean a real news article, not a blog post of what someone heard.

I think that UNC thing could be a game changer, but I googled it and found notta.
 
26-24 @LSU is a curb stomping?

So did we get curb stomped at LSU in 2010?
You keep saying biggest win at SC, as if that's a given. Did you see the UGA game? The team that beat NC State could handle USCjr, but Dooley lost this team just as he did last year. I personally would rather Hart cut the cord ASAP and announce Chaney as the Interim HC, for the remainder of the season.

If they do this and announce that they've reached terms with Gruden, then I think the team will focus and play hard to show the new coach what they can do.
 
Hart would do well to squash all this Gruden talk, if its not true. why hasnt Gruden himself squashed it? all that he has to do is say no thanks publically as he did last time.
 
Has anyone see Doug Matthews comments on Gruden this morning on 104.5?
Yes I did. Doug Matthews was on 104.5 The Zone in Nashville this morning and he basically said that John Gruden IS NOT coming to Tennessee and that those of us who hope and think that he is coming are going to be disappointed. Matthews said that any interest Gruden is out of being cordial.
 
... BREAKING NEWS.



Prince and Cledus T. Judd will be performing at your Coach John Gruden's inaugural welcome home celebration on his land. Boom.
 
Uh...boom. EF Hutton has just dropped the hammer on the RS crap.

For the record, if you look back I slammed it pretty hard while people were sure it was happening. When it proved to be false, that's when this "it fell thru" business started.

If Gruden comes, his favorite qb will probably be Worley. Gruden will get him to the gradkowski level.
 
Heard from a player today that the Gruden rumor is not true. I know him pretty well and dont THINK he would mislead me but who knows at this point?
