Official Jon Gruden Thread III

Can't wait for all the Barbara Doorights to have a Chris Matthews sized meltdown when Gruden is announced head coach.

OHNOZ THEM THERE INSIDERS WAS RIGHT.
 
Lots of emails to me regarding the timeline of Dooley's firing and Gruden's hiring. To start, UT will not have two head coaches under contract at the same time. Thus, Dooley's official firing will take place first. The earliest Dooley will be fired is Sunday. The latest is the week after the UK game. This all depends on how stubborn Dooley is and whether he's willing to negotiate a reduced buyout (due to alleged breaches of his employment contract with UT). Again, it's not a question of "if" but when.

Within a few days, at most, after Dooley's contract being terminated, UT will announce Gruden as the next head coach. The contract terms have already been agreed upon in principle. Don't expect to hear anything concrete from the "media" or directly from UTAD until Dooley is fired.

Now we can all get horny again.

So what you're saying is the week after the UK game. I don't expect Dooley to be very negotiable. He's a damn lawyer, after all.

Your last sentence seems strange, because everyone I've talked to claiming to have a source in the AD has said he's gone, while everyone claiming a source on the donor side has said he's still got a shot. Weird.
 
What's funny is that ark has been saying this same stuff about Gruden for months... They've had insiders that have been swearing up and down that the JG deal is done..
 
Wasnt the fan base geared up to hire the same ferarri in 2009?

Wasnt there a list of like 5 people that we were after?

didnt we get stuck with a volkswagon?

dont be so sure that Hart gives a rats @ss about all this speculation. He has a program to run. I dont think he's taking opinion polls from the fans.

He knows he is going to need their butts in the seats to run his department.

Arky insiders say he signed papers in April. Was allowed an additional 6-8 weeks to assemble a staff.
 
lol @ delusional Arkansas fans

Even as down as we currently are; there's no chance in hell they could ever compete with us on this large of a scale.
 
For the people who says Ut will not hire a big name coach they are more than likely basing this on past hires. We have no clue what Hart will do he was hirex to help fix issues in the Atheletic Dept. Im sure he will do what he sees necessary from his experiences...
 
This damn thread is making me insane. I feel like a little kid in early December looking at all the presents under the tree, particularly the big one in the back that I can't get to to see who it's for.
