Official Jon Gruden Thread XII

[CMcEver]

By "meeting today", Hyams means last week.

 

[orangefreak21]

Probably more accurate for the forum.....

I always think "Reservoir Dogs" rather than Stealers Wheel.

Actually you can apply some of the song to this thread. . .

"Trying to make some sense of it all
But I can see it makes no sense at all
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor?
Well, I don't think that I can take anymore"

:cool2:

:toast:

 

[RagingOrange]

actually he said that no offer with stake in the cleveland browns had been offered or made - leading to the possibility that an offer has been made

WTF?? Get the context right mang! Dude didnt believe an offer was made because Gruden said no to the question. My response is if you believe that Gruden would openly admit anything, then Ive got something, hell anything to sell you.

 

[volman dan]

I can't understand why "they" leaked a cancellation of a meeting that no one knew about.

true dat!

 

[alexconner]

So should we blame these guys:

Was Gruden boxed in by the comments on the show and so cancelled the meeting with Hart?

nah.

 

[MFL]

Where's Boro at? I look forward to seeing him around when Gruden isn't hired.

Simple solution..they change screen names and start over.

 

[vol494]

Not that this means anything to anyone but, I'm still at 100% Gruden. Come on guys, the OG's were in here around 2pm putting out the good vibe and now all of a sudden Hyams says meeting cancelled you all are ready to jump? I choose to trust the OG's until they say otherwise.

 

[warrior]

So everybody here hates Hyams and thinks he's clueless. Then he comes out and says Gruden turned down a meeting. Now everybody believes him and is crying. Hilarious.

Actually everyone is saying he is clueless just as it was before.

You have a reading comprehension problem.

 

['Boro-vol]

Where's Boro at? I look forward to seeing him around when Gruden isn't hired.

I'll be here. Will you be when he is hired little man?

 

[jspvol76]

Everyone please take your pills.

:good!:

 

[FearlessFreep]

read the first line of what I said. Their "search" is better than ours. Not the result. If Arkansas does in fact end up with a better coach than UT then we should officially cancel football.

Their 'search' is in no way 'better' than ours. LOL, just more public. The only thing that matters is who you end up with. I, for one, am kinda glad we've moved on from the Mike Hamilton school of coaching searches.

Let me put it to you this way: Arkansas has been turned down publicly twice thus far. Tennessee has been turned down zero times.

So who's search has been 'better?'

 

[Jax_Vol]

Remember the scene in Trading Places where there is a fury of information and then right when the market closes everything stops. Then there's an announcement and everything goes crazy again. That's what this whole thread feels like. Only thing left to be determined is who walks out of this with a smile on their face and who gets rolled out on a stretcher completely broke.

I was thinking that all the trading stopped mid-morning for the 'Orange Report'. Then it started back at a feverish pace. I may be wrong?

 

[AV_12]

If Jimmy had said there was a meeting and Gruden was there, I guess everyone would have believed him...

Its gonna be sad when we make a good hire, but nobody accepts it because of this nonsense.

 

[BigOrangeD]

Hyams is just reporting a rumor based on a rumor.

His sources say a meeting was cancelled.

The whole idea of there being a meeting was a rumor to begin with.

Hyams sources are sh!t.

Yep

 

[VolFan32]

Boro, thank you. I'm sure you've been lurking.

 

[bignewt]

Man you guys is this really your first rodeo? Quit crying for the OG's everytime some ass gasket spews nonsense that they are pushing for reaction and ratings. Quit believing any source especially fly bys and anyone who says "I can't reveal my source." Be level-headed and enjoy the spectacle. You have no control over it and UT will be back. I was here for Kiffin and Dooley and Sal and trust me there are patterns. Learn it. Love it. Live it.

 

[MWAVolfan]

So everybody here hates Hyams and thinks he's clueless. Then he comes out and says Gruden turned down a meeting. Now everybody believes him and is crying. Hilarious.

Exactly. Dumb.

However, since Hubbs also said the same thing, I think people are giving it more credence.

 

[EZE]

This AD is a moron for not killing the Gruden rumors weeks ago. Now the fanbase will be more pessimistic, hopeless and divided than ever. I feel sick. :sick:

If it turns out that Gruden was never seriously in play, then you are absolutely correct.

I have a bad feeling we are on a similar path to what we were on three years ago that ended in Louisiana.

 

[AndyMizunogolfer]

Tell the buttchuggers thanks for running him off.

 

[warrior]

Thats what I call a GAG order!

It is one method of it.

 

[wU-Tang Vol]

I'm just gonna take a break and see what happens when I come have tonight. Idk how we can do such a 180. This thread is such a roller coaster lol. There will be 5 different mood swings by the time I get back

 

[Exiled]

Deal. I'll sell them for 5x what I pay for them in 5 years.

Maybe. If we get Gruden after 3-4 years of Golden running us futher into the ground. lol:

 

[865dude]

Hubbs on VQ is saying Gruden declined the meeting ... not just Hyams saying it

This. Gruden denied the rumors today, too.

 

[salutethehill]

Everyone please take your pills.

perfect timing (considering the previous post)

 

[CountVolcula]

Everyone please take your pills.

Its humorous
