Official Jon Gruden Thread V

[EZE]

There was a point where it looked like Bama wouldn't get Saban. is this our Saban moment? Goodness, I hope so. We need a grand slam hire this time around.

 

[Sheath Huler]

Now talking about Petrino...first thing I've heard him say today that I've disagreed with. I want no part of Petrino.

Yeah, I don't see Petrino automatically selling out the stadium (at least not until after a few winning seasons)

Tony tweets out address and phone number for Board of Trustees

 

[Buffett Vol]

This thread makes me feel more educated than the common fan about what's going on at our school, and for that I thank all those who have posted here. I hope we get this worked out, because I love UT and it physically hurts me to see us fall this far. Here's to hoping for a culture shift a return to the "good 'ole days" I grew up in. Go vols.

Beat Oregon and he would

 

[ob79]

We aren't on ole miss' level. We don't even have a "grove"

We don't have a stadium that would pass for a nice Texas high school football stadium either....

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Agree with others, do NOT want Petrino here.:no:

 

[GreatWhiteNorth]

He would sell us out the second a better job came open. No loyalty to us whatsoever. We can do better.

 

[phowell23]

So basically all views that Gruden will coach in the NFL and not come to TN are coming from one person?

 

[Doyle Hargraves]

Did Dooley really say its not fair?

 

[RagingOrange]

Talking points. Smoke to distract and entice calls.

 

[WriterVol]

Hmmmmmm......700+ yds total offense. That would be debatable.

No, it's true. There were 99 offensive plays from scrimmage for Troy with only five of them going for touchdowns. So, the ball carrier was tackled on most of them.

See guys, it's not as bad as it looks. I promise.

 

[vol2002]

Dooley: We don't want to mess up something good (offense) to decrease the number of snaps our defense is on the field.

I actually agree - our defense is so bad, I'm not sure slowing down the offense would help. If we want to avoid another losing season, we need to score as many points as we can as quickly as we can.

Why does it look like we're not getting Gruden?

True, we held them to an average of ONLY about 7 yds per play.lol:

 

[Coastypop]

25 min into the press conference and no one has asked about Mizzlou..... what a mess

 

[Doyle Hargraves]

Stop criticizing me!!!
Not fair!
Not fair!
Not fair!

 

[phowell23]

What was said?

Everyone running off LWS' view that Gruden doesn't want to coach College football.

 

[RagingOrange]

Kinda reminds me of the old "Work like heck" days...

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

That's the way I understand it.

 

[phowell23]

Has Dooley said the word discipline yet? He likes that word.

 

[bcartervol98]

One person in the media. More than one person are talking about it overall. Its all I have heard all morning, not that he wants in the NFL specifically but that he has effectively said "no thanks". Most speculation as to the reason from people I know is the complete and utter turmoil within the AD when it comes to the football program and how the AD relates to academics. I am sure potential NFL openings may play a part.
