It's Black Friday. No day has ever been black to me. I try to live each one as best I can to the fullest. But today it is going to feel like a Black Friday in Knoxville if you were counting on Jon Gruden being a done deal to Tennessee. Because, as I've been telling you for weeks, I'll believe it when I see it. Even more than that, I believe Gruden is way further away from being Tennessee's coach than he was a couple of weeks ago. And quite frankly, sources tell me the trepidation is more on Tennessee's end than it is on Gruden's.
I tried to warn you on Wednesday and I was shot at on the air and in my e-mail box but Gruden to UT is not a done deal and it's not even close to being done. In fact, Gruden to Tennessee seems remote at this point in time.
