Putting together all the information and how this has unfolded, I would be absolutely stunned if the Vols don't get Gruden.

What he wants is for every person with info to lay out specifics of whom their sources are and why they are so certain. Even if he had that info from said source, he would want to speak to Gruden and his agent.

More and more legit info is backing what these "insiders" have posted here, and yet he still wants to poke and prod them.

While the rest of us will wait and enjoy the process, he's constantly whining. Sure, he is free to do this, but we will know one way or another very soon. This should be apparent.

Bruin doesn't bother me. He is a solid contributor, and very knowledgable. He just disagrees. That is ok. I don't think he is trying to be a wet blanket. He is just being cautious. Normally I'm the same way.

Yesterday my wife and 5 year old daughter were driving home from school. My daughter out of the middle of no where begins to talk about Dooley. How he was fired and not a good caoch. Then goes into how Gruden is coming and he will beat Bama. She talks for another 5 minutes about it and ends it with "I hate Alabama". Must be doing something right.

I know cool story bro.

Is gruden still negotiating with us?

Bruin, you're a respectful poster but I picture you as T-Rex in Toy Story. Always looking for the worst in every situation. You seem to get worked up by anonymous posters from another team but have the hardest time trusting a brother who roots for YOUR team. Relax my friend.

I appreciate you all. As I listened to the presser on Sunday, I heard words come from the mouth of Dave Hart that I had heard from people on this board. I was thinking..they DO know!! It gave me calm confidence..He is ours!:clap::clap::clap:

good post. its getting to the point if anybody even resembles being in disagreement, they get ganged in this thread. i believe Lex, Boro, and the guys but i also know that things can happen up until the instant that pen is put to paper. it seems unwise to claim its done, to me.

People still remember Randy Shannon and Lovie Smith.

As you are aware, I couldn't care any less if you believe me. Maybe OV, Jay, Lex, DTO, BCarter, OCI, or others feel differently. You'll have to ask.

For what it's worth, I'm all-in on Boro. Everything he's said has come to pass with the timetable he stated.

I will say I was extremely skeptical at first (that is my nature and UT has screwed this up before), but there's no denying that events have transpired as he stated. Until I see evidence to the contrary, I don't have any reason now to believe that what he's saying is not true.

The wheels for this were set in motion a long time ago. We're at the end of the process, not the beginning.

Not sure, just was told it had very little to do with compensation and was more about control and commitments made on the chancellors side. Not my best source, full disclosure, but a trusted friend and former Associate AD.

Thanks for the answer. slice got on here yesterday with a post that was met with celebration. Well my thinking is this deal is done, and if it is there are no other hurdles to celebrate passing.

Agreed on Bruin.

Lex, will you shoot me an email? Got a question for you.

Give me a break. Those rumors never had this much news. Get over it already.

I am saying that this is why some are skeptical. I remember reading about Shannon/Smith in media places, so I can see why there are people who have a hard time going all in.
