Official Jon Gruden Thread IX

[G0V0LS33]

When do you think we will actually know if it truly is JG?

 

[ob79]

TB just stated that his contact states that LaMonte did sign the MOU regarding Gruden.

Jake...you offered a party and a free keg of beer, therefore I love you, but Basillio, really man?

The last person our fan base should listen to when it comes to...really anything, but specifically a coaching search...is Tony Basillio.

Nothing against the guy personally, but he literally had diarrhea of the mouth during our last coaching search...doesn't seem like much has changed this time.

No DP= Dan Patrick

I wasn't asking that, I know who Dan Patrick is, I was asking about Basilio.

[Jake]

I can and will. National Champ game I can root against UGA.

Very nice twist

 

[LifeisO&W]

Tony changes his tune so much that his smokescreen attempts are obvious.

 

[alexconner]

Honest question.

How was Ainge toeing the company line doing ad the ad told him last week saying no gruden, today hart is under serious pressure to keep things quiet, and now today saying its gruden and will be announced next week????!



It's much easier to admit Ainge has no damn clue!!

Ainge said he was being respectful of a sitting/active Coach in Dooley at The University of Tennessee last week. Given his position it would be in poor taste to criticize CDD publicly and call for a Gruden hire with CDD on the sideline. He said now that CDD is out, he's full Gruden.

Sidenote: Spoke with Clay Travis on 11/12, he said "not likely that UT gets Gruden."...Spoke with Clay Travis on 11/19 he said "Very realistic that we get Gruden." Today he publishes "This guy will be a Vol." Wonder what changed the media's mind so drastically? Something's definitely up.

One more thing Mortenson said on Nashville radio this morning was that Gruden currently makes in the neighborhood of 15 to 20 mm a year with ESPN and endorsements. I dont think money is that big of an issue.

15-20mm? Challenge.

 

[SHOWOFF]

15-20mm? Challenge.

That's what she said....

 

[OddBallVol]

15-20mm? Challenge.

15-20 MM's ... that is not even half a bag full. Seems he could get a full bag of MM's if he wanted one.

 

[Doyle Hargraves]

Is this TB on TSR? He's trying to make a case against Gruden...

Be patient by his next show he will be pro Gruden. Of course the show after that he will be back negaGruden. It's his game and it works we listen and we react.

 

[voldawgforever]

Thanks for heads up and makes sense.

I been focused on work and home.... Stayin away from football awhile. Bad offensive periods I can wether but this defense was just more then I could bear...... ESP when I know their better then that.

I remember your last "Defensive" post. I enjoyed it.

The NCAA can not adopt a "Rooney Rule" type rule. Here is your link.

Thank you for killing this notion. I keep seeing people reference that some minimum number of candidates must be interviewed (including a minority candidate) and it simply isn't accurate.

Details later. LOL!

 

[X2row34]

I can't find the Dan Patrick tweet.

I don't think it was a tweet. I think he said it on his show.

Sorry, don't mean to misrepresent so I'll clarify. TB has been goin against the grain...today. However, he took a text over the phone stating that his source just said that it wasn't Gruden that signed the MOU...but it was LaMonte. Having said that, he then went on to justify his stance by saying "see, it's not Gruden. He didn't sign anything. It was his agent."

At that point, it was a silly argument for him because his agent has to be a "power of attorney" or the equivalent of...to bind Gruden to agreements with his blessing. My attorney does that for me all the time.

Earlier i was textin with one hand because I had my daughter in the other...so I couldn't be very descriptive and thorough.

My apologies.

ESPN got a deal for 12 years of the CFB playoff, here's to hoping we're in a lot of those.

Are you gonna make it to the spring game?

 

[Obsessed]

Link?

 

[Vollen For Life]

Basilio said a month ago that the boosters were going to handle this thing exclusivley, now he's saying that the boosters have turned over power to Hart.. Yupp that's believable

 

[Jake]

Are you gonna make it to the spring game?

I'm gonna try to link a filmin event and the game...so maybe!!

 

[RagingOrange]

Sigh...memorandum of understanding

Make it a sticky.
