Most of the names I receive directly from a coach on Gruden's staff. There are a couple positions not filled yet. To disguise my information, I added a couple names as options that aren't really options.

Hopefully Tee, Graham, Morris and Pittman are definites and Sal as LB coach, plus that saves some buyout money.Plus Bates as OC would be great. Glad Graham is a def keep.

Until OCI posted that staff I wanted to believe him. The staff went overboard imo. It appears to be too much of a staff aimed at this thread in particular. Was beginning to get skeptical about the random OCI inevitable post that would stir up the Gruden talks as it was but this just went too far. Still hopeful that we get Gruden. Just seems to me like OCI is playing to the crowd way to much to warrant further consideration as a source of information. I'll hang my hope on the true OG's. The AD has allowed this to continue on so long that its either Gruden or bust.

That may be where the helicopter went if true, but growing up my families company had a Citation X and it could not land there. Well, it could land but not take off. Needs ~5100 feet to take off and that runway is ~3700 feet iirc.

I don't know the exact airplane I flew in there and out with the donor I know but it was much bigger and nicer than a prop plane. There were 2 pilots and it held 6 more passengers.

I personally don't see all this being right now, while dooley is still in charge. However, I wouldn't speculate talks with gruden. I want to know more about the validity of these "staff" claims

Why is that? Money wont be an issue and he will be allowed to hire whomever he wants. Honestly one of the best college staffs from a recruiting standpoint was Kiffins with Himself, his Dad, Coach O, Chaney, Lance Thompson, Eddie Gran and the few others. But If that staff of Grudens is true it would be even better from a recruiting standpoint and light years in coaching.

I don't doubt it would be an excellent staff that Gruden could put together. I doubt the validity of a claim that someone would have knowledge of who that staff might be.

I typically believe what OCI says...and the other guys-OV, boro, DTO, etc. have made me believers...but all this info OCI is brining now feels like the shark has been jumped...either way I'm all Gruden

HC - Gruden
OC - Bates or Shoop
QB - Bates or Shoop
RB - Graham
WR - Martin
TE - Middleton
OL - If Shoop then Pittman, if Bates then Morris
DC - Morris or Bradley
DL - Franklin or Millard
LB - Barry or Bradley or Brooks
DB - Morris or Burns
ST - Bisaccia

Also, there is the potential for at least one of Gruden's former players to join Gruden's staff at UT...a guy who is currently doing NFL coverage.

Hate to break it to you, but the NCAA only allows 9 coaches on staff.


Try again.
