The biggest thing that I keep going back to pertains to hubbs. I have stated numerous times he will be the one that breaks it that gruden is out if that ever is the case.

Hubbs posted yesterday something that mirrored nearly exactly my thoughts. He said that UT would/should either announce gruden this week or let the public know he is out.

He obviously doesn't know that gruden is out and it's my belief that if gruden was out hart would leak that info to hubbs.

Hart is smart enough to know this fanbase must hear its not gruden before anybody else is hired. That hasn't happened yet and for that reason gruden is very much in play IMO

Had missed that from Hubbs. Thanks, Bruin. Very telling.

I need good news! My three favorite teams (Titans, Vols and Cubs) all suck right now! I desperately need some positive reinforcement! :crossfingers: :cool:

Been hearing Chip Kelly's name more than I should in regards to our opening.

He DOES only make 1.9 million and has zero ties to Oregon.

Hmm...

Hey OG's, do you know if Fulmer has had any handl in helping with Gruden? We've seen Peyton, former players, and boosters. I just wondered if Phil had been reached out to for help. I mean I know Majors was JG's head coach, but Phil was on staff as well. Also, Phil and Vicki are always at the Vinoy in St. Pete very often.

Johnny has but not sure about Phil. Kinda doubt it.

Fulmer probably sent in his own application.

Zero ties to Oregon? He has coached there the last 5 years. More accurately, he has zero ties to Tennessee.

And I think Kelly will get an NFL shot very soon.

I figured. The only one that Phil really hated was Mike Hamilton and rightfully so. Just didn't know where Phil was at with all this. Because I heard he later wound up with Peyton and the Haslams in their box during the Bama game

Has Dave Hart told anyone in the media or on this board that he was going after Jon Gruden? I doubt it. Why does he need to say the man is "out" if he was never "in? It makes no sense that people expect explanation for things that may not even be the case. Maybe Gruden is hired, maybe not. Hart does not need to explain himself or give reasons why a candidate is not an option just because the media and or fanbase as started a fabricated search in their minds.

This is how I'm convincing myself to remain hopeful: the two pieces of info I was told previously, plus the fact that I do think Gruden loves UT and if he was positively not coming here he would say so. He has to be aware of what's happening in the fanbase.

Having said that, all three things are just things that would keep a real possibility and nothing more.

what were you told? by whom?

Good lord you act like he murdered kids or something. So much for forgiveness huh? He got caught up with some young ass and made a series of mistakes. He has no NCAA baggage. He got some booty behind his wife's back and wrecked a bike. Worse things have happened.

Doesn't matter, its not about #2 or #3 yet, and I do not believe it will be. Just conversation about backup plans.

I dont' really care that he cheated on his wife - that's his problem.

But when he hired his mistress to the university? that is borderline prostitution and an HR nightmare.

That is my hesitation bith Bobby P.

Zero personal ties.

I know he's coached there for 5 years. In case you haven't noticed, I follow college football.
