Official Jon Gruden Thread IX

[VOLout8]

You have info that can also come from Gruden's camp. They seem to have the loose lips. Hence us finding out about who he has contacted, ect. It's not just boosters and AD.

I LOVE Real Sports...one of, if not THE best Sports Jouralism shows around.

That interview was just a few weeks before I became a full-on Grudenite. I already liked the guy before then, but after that...I can't imagine why anyone wouldn't.

Where did you get this info?

He was saying that's what could happen...

 

['Boro-vol]

There will be No need for all of them to be at a Press conference... I don't recall a full board gathering the at the last press conference announcements...

just my thoughts?....Deerpark is more solid than LWS imho though

It could even be as simple as a press release, with a presser at later date. I believe the desire is to leverage the publicity surrounding the SECCG as well as get the name out prior to the dead period in regards to recruiting.

Some have said just announcement that day and presser the following monday.

If recruiting picks back up around that time then I believe it would be a good move to do so.

 

[1world1love]

Where did you get this info?

I think he is suggesting how the "announcement" would be made.

If it came out like that, then they would have to have a presser before the next MNF game. Otherwise, that would be awkward.

 

[Evol]

Where did you get this info?

I think he was just saying that its possible the news is leaked on that date and a presser on a different date. It was just a hypothetical scenario.

 

[Reynvol5]

I think that some have said that the 30th could just be an announcement or confirmation date...maybe presser scheduled for another time.

OMGosh...I wanna play for him and I am female!! He is so motivated and caring, how can anyone NOT want to be on his team!!!
:bow2:

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

I Believe and hope its Gruden if not I would be happy with Bob stoops. If its Al Golden I will be highly disappointed.

My sentiments exactly.

There's Gruden, Then There's Everyone Else - Rocky Top Talk

I agree with this. I was on VQ for 10 years. Larry is solid but seemed to be hedging a lot the last couple of years. He doesn't want to be totally wrong from what he has been told. I know he had contacts on Fulmer's staff- not sure what they are now.

Random question about Larry "LWS"...

Does LWS stand for his initials. If so, I know who this is. He knows my stepfather and is where I got my info about Hamilton resigning a few months before it happened. I received an email today with a conversation between Larry and Hubbs.

The OG's info has come from all over the board. We really knew we had something when it all started lining up back in October.

 

[Coastypop]

Is Hart one of the people required to be in Atlanta that day?

I would think that he would be...but don't know....

He could however........... fly to Knoxville, do a press conference, and fly back to Atlanta...possible but maybe not probable

 

[Rizzo924]

I am going to go out on a limb and call a Georgia victory. Not only that, I am of the opinion ND beats USC and then Georgia is your BCS NC.

Not what you want to hear but its jmo lol.

Oh, Lawd!! You may very well be right, I def don't think that Bama is a sure thing in the SECCG. GA fans will really be insufferable if they ever actually, you know won something! They're bad enough just from their near misses!

 

[UTodd01]

I wonder how one goes about changing their username around here?

I need a change.

I'm thinking we have a fully membered Grudenite cheer leading squad on our hands!! (Female)

Yes, Nov 30 would be just about the max exposure being the day before the SECCG. It would get a tremendous amount of run over that game broadcast the next day... huge for recruiting. Would also provide some nice distraction away from the bammers.

 

[BruinVol]

mortenson just said no chance gruden has been offered any job on 104.5

 

[1world1love]

Have the presser in ATL? I think it will be done by the 30th.

I think so too. I really hope so.

It would seem to make sense that they would announce it as soon as they practically could.

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

Hmmm having touble with a gif. smh

 

[UTodd01]

I hate slow days like this.

Nothing tomorrow either due to Thanksgiving.

Maybe Friday the flood gates will open.
