Official Jon Gruden Thread XI

[VOLout8]

He also said Lamonte contacted us to drum up interest in Gruden (in his mind) and that Gruden will probably stay in the NFL.

I didn't hear him, that was just what Basilio said.

 

[MBVolFan]

You just described 50% of the people on this site. I've been attacked all morning just because I didn't think Gruden was coming.

The thing that pisses me off is that he was referring to our conversation and must have failed to read that we had come to terms and agreed to disagree.

 

[I_Bleed_Orange77]

These folks have a dream. You should rethink trying to destroy it. Not on this thread.

I'm not trying to destroy anything. I want him here too, just don't think he's coming. Then I get told to go hang myself. This fan base is flat out retarded sometimes.

Says Boro's stalker

He's right though.. That guys a little off..

Man, most people not on these boards are a little more open to other coaches.. Nowhere else is this considered a sure thing, or even very likely at all..This is the only place I've been that is just sold on Gruden being the coach.. Most around Knox/campus I've talked to think he's a longshot.. These boards don't speak for the majority of fans.

I agree somewhat, however season ticket sales do speak for the fans and they will be underwhelming to say the least with MOST (but not all) candidates besides Gruden, imo.

I still don't know what the AD has to gain from misdirections.... Or is it hart has something to gain from it?

by saying we are putting gruden to the side makes it appear that we havent been talking to this guy for several months. gruden doesnt want to appear like he went after a mans job.

 

[AJeray4TN]

Basilio is out right saying we don't want Jon freaking Gruden.

He started the hour by talking about how awesome it was that Al Golden almost beat Stanford while at Temple.

I'm sold.

So I get attacked because I have a different opinion. Are we allowed to have our own opinions or are we Communists now?

Of course you can have your own opinion. But it's like being a Tennessee fan in a building full of Alabama fans. People aren't going to agree with you.

We were in Rommel's army. The Nazi's were socialists. Communism is the next logical step.:loco:

Now Elvis let's not start a holy war

I think we are Socialist if you go by right-leaning websites.

Oh ok gotcha. Yeah I was listening to DP this morning he brought up Lamonte drumming up Gruden interest and Clay Travis reporting Gruden was done a couple of times.

 

[1world1love]

Dan Patrick said Lamonte contacted us, but we are putting Gruden to the side.

Where?

That was easy

OG's = bammers?

:question:

 

[Ragdoll]

I know i have no credibility on these forums but whatever take this for what it is. My sister dates a player on the team and she texted me telling me players were called into a meeting today at 10 AM and were informed a coaching decision will be announced this week. She is in class right now so I can't get any more details at the moment.

Can anyone verify if there was a players meeting this morning??
Thanks :ermm:

 

[UT4LIFE86]

Basilo said UT wants to see what else is out there? Wtf ... and gruden lowered his demands? What the hell

You're a weirdo

 

[volzfan1998]

You guys just need to sit back and relax and drink a cerveza and let it happen.

 

[JCP201]

Basilio has lost it today. Tennessee is shoving Gruden is off to the side, so we can explore other options? Please. Can anyone deny that he won't fill seats and sell tee shirts and that in itself is worth the risk. Also, I think his name alone will help recruiting. Why can Saban lose half of his coaching staff every year and still be okay? He's a good coach but he also has great recruits that flock to him every year.

Thanks, but that all just sounds odd to me. Wouldn't gru dog want everyone here to know that he wants to be here?

"Nobody puts Gruden in the corner"

 

[Sheath Huler]

Where?

Dan Patrick talked about Gruden to Tennessee rumors on his show this morning. Nothing earth shattering.

 

[volgr]

Jesse Palmer just said UT is not only an elite coaching job in the SEC but among the elites in all of football.....Gruden fan?

Sounds like Jesse doesn't want any more Al Wilson body slams (circa. 1998).
