Noone would be happy that we did not get Gruden. The only crap you guys swearing he is a done deal and have been for weeks will get is for being FOS. It's all hope and nothing to support it but fake claims of "insiders" on the board. I love reading the posts that swear everything that says Gruden is coming is accurate and everything saying he is not is a lie. "I just know it". LOL
We all a sudden have about 25 "insiders" on here. It's crazy how they all a sudden showed up with info. :eek:lol:

When you swear it's going to heppen and it does not, expect to catch some shi*.

I'm just sitting back, letting this thing play out until we finally get word that Gruden is the next coach for the university of Tennessee. Its coming, and with him the restoration of our pride and tradition of winning and being a college football power. Exciting times vol fans, enjoy it!

Wrong again. Stoops has supposedly contacted UT through back channels. That doesnt happen if your not interested.

JMO but I think it is just Stoop's agent doing his job. The UT job is a major job opening and he is keeping his client's name out there. I doubt there is any serious interest.

Stoops is more of a longshot than Gruden. Do you have any idea the size of his buyout? I don't, but he just signed an extension, and I would be willing to bet that it is astronomical. I can find it out though, if you would like.

What is Stoops' salary and buyout?

Basilio has said all in the past few weeks:

-Hart wants to keep Dooley and rehabilitate him.

-Hart isn't making this hire. He will be told what to do.

-Hart may go rogue and get his own guy.

-Gruden is a possibility.

-Gruden isn't a possibility because Tennessee doesn't want him with his demands.

Seems solid... The man is guessing.

Right, but he would end up being more expensive in the immediate than Gruden, considering the size of his buyout.

Boro, oldvol, jay, little dto, gman all said Gruden will be the head coach. Why do we go through this panic attack everyday that a media member said its not happening? Its happening!! Will be announced no later then Dec 1.

That's how media works. It's a love hate relationship.

But the media never hates the viewers and listeners....only LOVE. That's how they pay the bills.

There are three reported clues that should be the most telling. First, Hart says he wont be hiring a search firm. He had a target in mind when he said that at the presser. Second is the $18 million release. That has big fish all over it. Third is that its no secret to anybody in any media circle or otherwise that Gruden is the man on everyones mind. If Hart wasnt going after Gruden, or if it falls apart with him, this WILL be leaked and heavily reported on.

None of that means we are certain to get him, but it tells me Hart is trying. I could care less about an announcement timeline because I know his departure from ESPN wont be pretty, and I dont think that door closes quickly. But I still believe the signs point to Gruden regardless of any other speculation one way or the other. And if not then God knows what they are doing because nothing else makes sense.

Gruden, believe it or follow the blind

In other Breaking News
Makers Mark just sent me some very nice decorative boxes to place a bottle in and hand out as gifts.

I got the boxes also. It must be code that we are getting Gruden. I still use my bottle sweater they sent several years ago. Got to make sure your bourbon doesn't catch a cold.

In other news I'm all in...
