Excuse me? Not listening to people like me? What the f*** are you talking about? I've been all for Gruden and never said that he wasn't going to be the coach, but I just wanted to know why some of you are so certain. Really hope you don't off yourself if it turns out that he won't be our coach.
Calm down buddy. The response to your post, most probably, was because of the ongoing "inside source"/troll battle that has been waged here since a few Official Gruden threads ago.
That being said - to answer your question, the big leak that came out tonight implied that Gruden has in fact had detailed contract negotiations with the UT staff and that any potential hangups are monetary issues.
Hart's press-release about the financial situation, mixed with the sudden emergence of 18 million dollars, mixed with the (still unconfirmed) rumors that the Haslams, Ergen, and Manning have had some behind-the-scenes dealings in all of this have pretty much expelled any credible reason that we couldn't front the money.
From the latest release, Gruden is available so long as we're willing to pay, and from everything credible leading up to this moment, money was never presented as an issue.
