As much as people want it, there is no doubt in my mind that Dooley will finish the season. I am nearing certainty the UT will not announce a change until after the Kentucky game. I am 50/50 that UT will even make a head coaching change and instead fire Sunseri.

150% on Dooley being shown the door. When is the only question. Depending on how today goes it could be tomorrow, possibly. Several I know seem to think so.

It would take a moron to come into the Gruden thread calling Gruden a moron for coming to Tennessee.

Could you provide a link to Gruden's contract showing 4.3 million ESPN is paying him?

What happened to your Dooley campaign?
Were you mistaken?

Welcome back btw.

GBO
Go F'n Gruden!

No way on second part. If there was even a chance before yesterday, that went out the window. I think he was gone regardless. You can't go 0-6 in the SEC two straight years.

And as to your previous point about Aramark, I am not privy to the contract, but having these attendances can't help anyone. UT is losing money however you look at it.

Believe it or not, there is a difference between wanting Dooley fired and believing Gruden is coming to UT. But you wouldnt know it on this thread.

Just because you dont buy into the Gruden hype doesnt mean you support Dooley.

Just because you post this does not mean you have read his prior posts. Have a Franzia.

You cannot talk logic to illogical people. They are going to support Dooley to the end and make every agrument as to why he should not be fired. My only hope is that they follow him to his next team. If any other program is stupid enough to hire him.

For the love of GOD, I am NOT a Dooley supporter!

I am simply pointing out the folly in these statements that people make. They try to link ANYTHING to Gruden coming here. So many assumptions are being made:

1. Boosters will shell out millions of dollars
2. Businesses not connected to UT will stop donating because business is down
3. People will stop buying UT stuff
4. UT not saying anything means that Gruden is coming because its some freaking "smoke screen". Tell me, why isnt Auburn or Arkansas running these "smoke screens"?

I want Dooley gone yesterday. But I'm also not 5 years old waiving my Christmas wish list in the air. I am reasonable and have experience on my side.

I agree with the top part, you may hear an announcement before hand, but I think he finishes.

Totally disagree with the last part. He's done.

It is a rumor and speculation thread, not a fact thread.

Hence the rumours thread. While I have a hard time believing Gruden will coach here I also know I am in a rumors thread.

I agree that going 0-6 is reason to fire him. But there are only two games left (one home game). Attendance to the Kentucky game is pretty much decided no matter what they do with Dooley. It will be low for sure.

I'd bet money that Dooley isnt fired until after Kentucky. There just isnt any reason to assign an interim coach for just two game.

The wheels are off the bus and the bus is on fire. No need to put water on it now, just watch it burn.

May I be the first to thank you for pointing out to me what I wold not be able to understand on my own. I am afterall a feeble minded "Grutard" that just's can't understand anything.

Your service to us is so needed and very much appreciated by the hordes of the disalusional

Hey Gman, Babyavi was saying yesterday that Gruden wants $7 million per year now. Have you heard anything about his salary requirements?
Click to expand...

That would more than triple what we are paying current coach and it would make Gruden the highest paid coach in any sport. I know everyone is saying the money is there and not an issue, but I don't see it getting to 7 per year.

It's true

Makes sense, right?
3. People will stop buying UT stuff
Did you see the stadium the past two Saturdays?
4. UT not saying anything means that Gruden is coming because its some freaking "smoke screen". Tell me, why isnt Auburn or Arkansas running these "smoke screens"?
Auburn and Arky aren't getting Gruden

The extra bowl practice time is very important IMO. We have to do what is best to give us a shot at 2 wins. I think that's DD coaching these last 2 games but his dismissal announce tomorrow. I think the kids would play better away from the clouds of uncertainty. Yes I think they will play hard with dd on the sidelines just like yesterday.

That is not reasonable. You must lack experience.

So when I'm attacked and called a Dooley supporter for no reason and then people throw out statements like they know about UTs economic issues and how that for sure will persuade the UTAD, how come its not a speculation board anymore?

Its like if you dont drink the Grude-ade you are the delusional one?
