That's the only thing I'd fear.

But I don't think he'd leave Tennessee unless it's for the NFL.


he stated while hc for atl, his dream job was u of washington. suppose kiffin gets fired, sarkisian takes over and then boom.....kiffin would strike again as mora goes running to uw.
 
Can't believe everyone isn't getting excited over this..:popcorn:

Phillip Fulmer on sportstalk says 'certainly I'd coach again' with right opportunity and is in great shape. Wouldn't take dead end job

Yes, any doubt I had flew out the window today. A coupe here know the specifics and can affirm, but a lot of positive news today and about the only negative is "Scoop" Hyams and other AD sourced posters that are used to Associate ADs and transportation people having the scoop.

I can vouch, not that you need it.
 
Thanks Boro.

And thanks to all others who post info from their sources. Be it pro or anti Gruden it is still info that the rest if us are not privy to.

With that in mind I can not wait to travel from SC to Knoxville in the spring to join 100,000 of my good friends as we welcome our new coach Jon Gruden at the Orange/White game.
 
5 Things all Vol Fans want in their head coach

1) Love for the university
2) A winning record and has won big in the past
3) A coach with a vast knowledge of X's and O's and how to pass that knowledge to players
4) A coach who is known to recruits
5) A coach that hates to lose and demands a players very best on the field.

A-freakin-Men
 
So what the **** DID she say?

How did it get distorted?

She said someone close to the program told her she may need to start practicing Rocky Top in reference to the bet she has with Clay Travis. She actually went on to say please dont everyone start texting me saying I reported Gruden to TN cause thats not what Im saying.

Her comments were promising though because she was saying no way a few weeks ago but she never said its a done deal.

Got to love Hyams' timing on this interview. Some people just can't get out of the past.

Obviously Fulmer would come back but Hart ain't offering him. :crazy:
 
If UT already had a deal with Gruden, he would have already been announced as the coach. Urban Meyer was supposed to broadcast the Ohio State and Michigan game a week before he was hired by OSU but pulled himself from the broadcast team. There is nothing holding Gruden back if the deal has already been made.

Nothing but a long term contract with ESPN and money from Tampa....

Get your facts right before you post.... :banghead2:

Lol he's as clueless as the other guys connected to the AD.

Not even close to being right. UT and Gruden dont want this looking like its been in the works for a while, which it has. Doesnt look good from either side. Delaying it makes it look like a full blown search was conducted and interviewing a minority should also be included to avoid backlash. Makes complete sense.

I asked this earlier...would anyone have a clue on the Saturday timeline....volmax posted in cliff notes about a Saturday announcement on Gruden. How. Unbelievably. Awesome. Would. That. Be
 
Info from the former players, boosters, coaching community, and another area is more reliable in this case. He's locked down tighter than Dick's hat band. Hart isn't talking much to associate ADs. That's why those that share AD stuff are in the dark this time.

I've never owned a hat band for my ooooops.

Sorry, misread your post. :)
