Don't shoot the messenger

I just got a txt from a friend, he is friends with an employee of UT Athletics Dept.

With Payton's help we did get Gruden at 5.4 mil a year.

I stand by my statement that JG will NOT be coming to UT. Is that a 100% fact......absolutely not.

My opinion is taking several FACTS into consideration that would make it highily unlikely that he would ditch his current gig making 4+mil/year + endorsments to come and coach a downtrodden UT football team.

The recruiting work alone that he would have to put in would more than double the hours he has to currently work every week.

If i'm wrong, i'll gladly apologize to this board. I've ever told a few co workers that I would eat a handfull of dirt if Gruden ends up at UT. I think that the chance that he doesn't end up here, far outweighs the chance that he does.

Do we even have the right personel to run the Tampa 2? I mean, the SS and FS are both responsible for half the field. It seems to me they need to get this thing done ASAP, so we can try and scrounge up some DBs.

It couldn't be any worse than forcing our personnel to run a 3-4 defense.

If Ut does get John Gruden there are gonna be about 2000 people on this board who will have to eat a lot of crow. It seems like no one knows what is going on. But, we still have at least 15 people in every thread saying 0% chance this happens. If you don't wanna believe it, fine. But don't act like you KNOW FOR A FACT that it won't happen. The folks saying it will happen wont even go 100%. This has been irritating me...had to get it off my chest.

Actually I think more people are "claiming" it is a FACT he is coming. UT has NEVER paid top money for a head coach. Those questioning UT hiring a guy who would demand to be the highest paid in college football have alot to support their opinion. Those "claiming" it's a done deal have nothing but hope. Gruden would be a great hire. I will believe UT would spend the cash when Hart announces Gruden has been hired and not until.

I mostly have no problem with this. The only issue I have is you say he will NOT be coming, and then you back off it and say not 100%. Why not just say "I don't think he is coming". It is all the people speaking in absolutes that are killing me. Unless JG called you, you don't know, and all you have is an opinion. Same with me, I have an opinion, but I definitely do not KNOW.
