I'm literally about to lose it.

SIAP: Famous denials...

November 24, 2011: "I have not been offered any job nor is there a deal in place, I plan on spending Thanksgiving with my family and will not comment on this any further."

November 28, 2011: “If not for the coaching position at Ohio State, I would not have coached this year” said Meyer as he officially accepts the head coaching job at tOSU.

Also…

December 21, 2006: “I guess I have to say it, I'm not going to be the Alabama coach."

January 3, 2007: Saban resigned from the Miami dolphins and announced that he had accepted an offer to become Alabama’s 27th coach (per wiki).

.

Gruden hasn't shot down the UT coaching rumors that I know of.

That's what I was hoping for!

 

[BJWeeks]

Man, you guys would kill to get the news I just received. Can I get a boom?

Yay4Bray for Heisman!!

Either spill at least some of it or please don't dangle this sort of stuff over our heads.

I am way behind on the posts and am trying to catch up but his name is Lapides. First name is George. I'm sure someone may have answered already if so, please delete.

It's no biggie. If the mods deleted every little repost we'd be in Gruden V still.

Text from my cousin (current UT student)...

"My friend was crossing the street and a big tinted-window SUV with Tampa Bucs plate was turning right. The guy looks in the window and boom there's Jon Gruden waving him across the street."

Just sharing a third hand account. My question is why would Jon Gruden drive himself and have his own car in Knoxville. Could be mistaken identity.

Have been a Vols fan since kindergarten, over 30 years ago. Up until about 6 years ago, i had lived a pretty "clean" life, just the occasional drink with dinner, rarely ever used a 4 letter word, pretty low key and quiet, even tempered, a real family man spending alot of my free time with the wife and children, dont miss church hardly ever and actually paid attention when i was there....now i find myself every day wanting a beer or three, not only using all of the 4 letter words but even at times this past season making up some new ones, constantly agitated, every free moment at work, at home...even at church, reading Volnation and looking for the latest Gruden news. I have gone from 1 can of dip every 3 days to a can per day, wife has threatened to leave because of my attitude,has threatened an intervention, and every night as i turn off my phone i swear i will not spend the next day with a constant watch on Volnation looking for Gruden, yet here i am again.....listen, when this is all said and done, are we all gonna have to seek professional help??

Go Vols. Come Gruden (or somebody, soon,and give us all some relief)

 

[VolFan32]

Don't be surprised if what you hear is "agreed in principle to a deal" when this is announced. Meaning not "techinically" finalized. Other factors at play that have been mentioned before.

 

[Harvester]

Here's a serious question for you guys. If gruden is indeed our coach now, why the wait? why would we not just announce it? out of respect for his friend dooley? i just don't get it, what are they waiting on?

$$ from Tampa Bay.

 

[StarCityVFL]

Ever get the feeling local media wouldn't want him here....men in front of DD, ants in front of JG, and watching them get stepped on would be priceless

 

[Yay4Bray]

How soon?

Soon

All I can do right now is smile.

The info I received will start leaking quickly I'm sure. That's as far I to it as I will go. Just do what I've been saying all along. Chill and wait for the best news we've had in decades.

Yeah... WTF bro?

Gruden's talk was far less uncertain about his future than Meyer or Saban. Gruden comin' ya'll.

Because I drive around with plates from an organization that fired me half a decade ago, is what makes this totally believable.
