The good news is none of the folks providing the money that they are only giving for the Gruden hire has leaked that they are out. So Friday is good.

I hope they have made it clear to Hart that the big money is only for Gruden, and it not available for a golden or strong hire.

Guys just wanted to post that I put my money where my mouth was. I called the athletic department and pledged 1K for season tickets. They already charged my card, I was told by the rep if I wasn't happy with the hire they would reimburse me. That being said I went on the record and stated I was all Gruden Baby!

The Hogs are trying to claim that their inside source is Cindy Gruden.

They deleted the original post, but I got a screenshot of it quoted:

Too bad CBS is doing the championship. If it was ABC/ESPN I could see Gruden on the halftime or pre game shows.

I think this is big news no matter who, how or when. And, don't fool yourselves for a minute, the SEC will benefit as well. You have one of the key games of the year in all of college football and on top of that, you announce one of the fellow conference schools has made one of the biggest hires in quite some time. UT obviously wins big time and so will the SEC. If looked at in this way, it resembles how the NFL handles most of their PR...they always seem to maximize it to the seemingly never-ending strengthening of the brand.

I just got a text from a friend of mine who works in the AD. I can only use his first name because everyone would know who he is if I used his full name.

Anywho, I asked Sal if he knew what was going on regarding the team and coaching.

He said, "I haven't had a clue about coaching since the day I stepped on campus in January".

Here is my baseball analogy on some of the coaches that some are saying are on the list

Golden - is a bunt
Strong - is a single
Patterson - is a double
Mora - is a triple
Stoops - is a homerun
Gruden - is a bottom of the 9th, bases loaded, Grandslam

Golden is a strikeout looking on three straight pitches.

Personally I was told the 30th. That is the date I was told a couple of weeks ago. I really don't care what date it's announced, just that it is.

LMFAO....I grew up in GA...lived in MO, NC, TX, GA, MI, and TN. What's your point?? Oh, wait....you're saying the same exact thing about Tressel that I'm saying about Gruden, aren't you?? Now you know how I feel, huh??



Ayup. I'm a decent guy if you're decent to me.

No... actually your not a decent guy. Your first 2 post this morning were condescending and were intended to do nothing more than start an argument. You are the definition of a troll... when your reasons were stated why you thought Gruden shouldn't be hired were rejected by most of the posters in this thread you continue to show up and try to force your opinion down everyone's throat. I got some news for you d***, I'm not a lemming, I'm my own man, and I made up my own mind as to who I will support and want as Tennessee's next head coach. Your drive by's and attitude do nothing to change my opinion, all it does is ruin what is usually one of the more civil threads I have ever been a part of on Volnation.

I think you need to take a good hard look at what your trying to accomplish with the manner in which you post. If your trying to win hearts and minds it's not gonna happen... all your doing is proving what a condescending a** you can be.
