Are you serious?? for believing someone who just gets on a messageboard says he has sources? But when someone on the radio says otherwise he's wrong? That guy on the radio gets paid to break stories. not some VN moderator who is like you and i.

I'll answer your question when you answered mine from this morning. Just in case you missed it. I'll post it again.

If Arky hired Gruden back in April as Hogville has stated, then why was John L. allowed to coach a team that could have possibly made a run for it all this year?

Not to mention dealing with outside national commercial contracts. Moving parts.

I've seen this mentioned a few times. Would UT really care if he has a few Corona commercials? I don't see how that is bad. The head coach does a bunch of local commercials. Also Corpna only probably wants him because of MNF. That ad campaign will probably only run through the rest of the nfl season.

Come on man. I don't usually jump on spelling. But beer man? You cannot get away with that. Corona is amazing and I hope Gruden keeps endorsing it even if our coach. But he would have to stop all the other promo cities endorsement for the Corona though. lol

I don't think we have ever had a coach to do that type of thing before.

I'll say again. NO ARKY FAN HERE!! First bike was an 88 sporty and I think Harley88 was taken when I joined.

IMO, 2 things are going on right now.

1.) Hart doesn't want to fire Dooley right now and risk Gruden turning us down. That would, of course, lead to another panic/rushed hire. What happens when Hart and the boosters kick Dooley to the curb without knowing for sure that Gruden is going to accept the job? What if he declines after Dooley is canned? They can't then just go out and get the other guys on the list then and there - they're currently employed. This also would mean that Gruden has yet to accept the job.

2.) Remember how embarrassed we were during the second coaching search? Big name after big name kept turning us down until we settled. The media coverage of that coaching search goes down as one of the most embarrassing times in UT athletics history as a fan. I can't imagine how it was for the AD. They do not want to risk that again. I can guarantee that.

After further review, I'm with Basilio on this one.

Let him dangle on.
