And all that.

You too.
It's that whole Ecred thing. I like to share good news that I get but some seem to think I'm looking for credit.

I'm nobody special just lucky to know a couple of people.
So I've cut back on what I share till I'm at least 95% sure.

If I'm wrong I'll show up so people can tell me I was wrong.

Same here Slice!

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Lawson
North
Green
Ramsey (if Tee comes)
Alexander
Bell
Woulard
Kamara
Adams (maybe)

I would say these guys would be on our commitment list come Feb when Gruden is announced.

That would put us between #5-#10.:rock:

 

[FearlessFreep]

Smoke, meet Fire.

 

[JayVols]

Talk about the ultimate troll job by the Haslams. It's almost to good to be true.

I read about the possibility 2 months ago. Came from a smart and connected person.

 

[Coastypop]

Leave Saban at Alabama. I want Gruden/UT to tear down that dynasty at its peak.

Yes indeed... I am full on with you eazy

"We don't give as da** about the whole state of Alabama, we are from Tennessee"

 

[Ron Swanson]

It's very possible.

Has there been legit talks of this behind the scenes?

 

[DD4ME]

Yes, we moved money around to give Gru everything he was asking for.
The total is 9 mil for Gru and staff. 1.5 for recruiting. 10.5 total which is about 5.5 more than last yr.
(Could be 6)

Shhhh Richard

But you're crushing my dreams living in bamaland! I won't hear the wailing and nashing of teeth!

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

I really hope Gruden takes a good look at Rod Crayton, he's the sleeper this year imo, and i hope we can keep Carr.

Crayton would be awesome..He has some unreal numbers in the weight room.

I think we do keep Carr..Players like him will want to play for Gruden.

 

[perico]

I think we get an announcement Monday, anyone agree? I remember how Arkansas quickly got the Petrino announcement together late at night and I am thinking something happens sooner than planned. Am I alone on this? 30th is still SOON but I would love sooner

No, we have to have time to meet the NCAA quota on interviews and the Affirmative Action candidate.

 

[Jake]

Amazing how all these pieces are coming together. Our insiders are prophets.

No doubt!!

I posted this last night at 4 in the morning so im sure many of you didn't see it. (college sleeping probs) But Mods...

Can we get a summary thread going? Instead of digging through all of the pages after work to see what transpired through the day, could we post all of the tweets, posts, stories, and interviews in one thread? No comments, just what was stated much like a game thread with score updates? Call it the "smoke thread' or something.

Oh and recent CSI news/updates could be posted in it as well obviously. I hate searching every post of Duck, HogInIns, Jc, etc to see if there was any new news.

lol:lol:lol:lol:lol:lol:lol:lol:lol:lol:lol:

 

[LifeisO&W]

somebody go post this over at Arky's site. From back in the summer.

Kirk Herbstreit talks UT, Gruden, and Dooley:

In response to the question, "Who will be the next coach at Arkansas?" he responded that he was with John Gruden at a Kenny Chesney concert a few weeks ago. From that conversation he got the distinct impression Gruden was itching to get back into coaching, and it will most likely be at the college level. He said he didn't think Arkansas would be attractive enough for him, but he mentioned that the Tennessee job, should it come open, would be attractive to Gruden. 15 minutes later when asked about coaches on the hot seat he mentioned that the Tennessee coach was most at risk this year. Interesting...

 

[perico]

who would Bama turn to? Surely they would not promote Smart. I bet a big name coach would come out of the woodwork and take the job. I am sure they'd get a good one, just not another Saban

Maybe they could bring back Franchione.

 

[steve328]

Well I'm not leaving ... even if they close the thread... I will hang out and wait till the powers that be opens it up again

Coasty, I wonder if Gruden told the hogs " no thanks" that he added " But I promise to visit in the future"?

 

[Allvolinnashville]

I harken back to a while ago where a meeting was to take place. I remember something about one of the main functions was to get someone named Cheek to play ball or get out. Could this be the ball game?

Give him six!

 

[voldawgforever]

Nice brutha!!

We are very similar. If people knew me, they'd say something along the lines of "How in the hell does he know anything."

FWIW, I never got an attention whore vibe from your posts.

Best moment from the Kiffin era.
