Eff Lamonte and Jon Gruden

your venom is in the wrong place....

Hart just contacted Gruden's agent for the first this morning?!?!?

What the eff has he been doing? What a clown. He hasn't done jack ish the last two weeks.

 

[Insunseri]

I'm pretty irritated at this point.

Lamonte seems like an ass.

Gundy or bust!

Have you gotten any sleep yet?

 

[V O L S]

Egg on faces...

 

[TNHopeful505]

I still just can't believe this. There's just no way. Something is very very wrong.

 

[MoreheadVol]

Many HC in the NFL have been fired from other NFL HC positions.

Ok I guess I don't know of many previously fired coaches to turn teams around... I'm just think out loud and trying to hold on to hope... But it's over... Sad day in vol nation

 

[BP4Prez]

Time to shut this one down

 

[FooVol]

Agent says Gruden never had interest in Vols' job, calls reports 'fantasy' » GoVolsXtra

Well, wait...he never had interest then why is the same outfit reporting they reached out to him last week and he talked to his family and declined to pursue in their article from this morning

Dave Hart is single handedly burning this mother to the ground.

With a tanker of diesel fuel

Don't think this was Dave Hart, I really don't. And I'd believe the CTFP article was backed by Lamonte. They wanted some late night play didn't get it and now are dumping on us.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Well,I'm done..It was fun guys!

 

[UTodd01]

Ur givin up too?

Those words came straight from the agents mouth.

I don't believe some aspects of his comments like the fact that he hadn't talked to Hart until today.

If it's true - Hart needs to be gone yesterday.

But yes, I'm off the Gruden train.

 

[ptcarter]

Yep...but he's probably got a rock or a cave in north Alabama to hide in til Mal Moore retires.

If he royally F'cks us, he'll be a hero in Tuscaloosa.

Dang guys, I live in North Alabama. It's already hard enough around here. You may not realize this, but Bama's distaste for UT is becoming a distant memory. They had Cam to worry about and now Johnny football. We aren't even a blip on the radar.

Sure they hated us when Fulmer was beating them, and blowing the whistle on their evil Memphis ways. They have more hero's than Hart to thank now. Just pick one. Hamilton, Kiffin, Dooley.. Clauson (remember him.. he started it). hmy:

 

[CSpindizzy]

And we were so close to XIV....

 

[I_Bleed_Orange77]

Time to tell us who you "sources" supposedly were.

Agreed.

This is worse than the Benghazi cover up.

Something is going on. It has to be.

 

[DoubleDFan]

Stoops has been consistently good in his career and has been decent in recruiting. Fisher is a terrific recruiter that hasn't done too shabby himself in the win-loss column. I think Fisher has a little more fire than stoops and I am a big recruiting guy.[/QUOTE

I also think Fisher would have a better recruting base in Georgia and Florida than would Stoops. Fisher has relationships built in both of those states.

this exactly

 

[Kvol87]

Hey Baby, Your hubby Kvol87 posted you phone number on the internet this morning wanting someone to call you. He is a brilliant man you know. Very few men would be so generous with their wifes number.

Her name is Jenny.

 

[jp1]

What I don't understand is if this report from Lamontae is true, why would Hart call to clear the rumors up? Why wouldn't Hart have squashed this a week ago to channel the fans excitement towards a new coach?

This is just par for the dang course here lately. Guys I'm a UT fan till I die, but it keeps getting harder with the dumb crap that keeps on happening.

 

[EastTN]

When are the people on this board is going to realize it is OVER OVER OVER OVER!!!!! GRUDEN NOT COMING PLEASE MOVE ON GET OVER IT.....AGAIN I REPEAT THEY HAVE SAID HE IS NOT COMING NOR WAS HE INTERESTED IN THE JOB, ALL THESE RUMMORS HAVE GOTTEN BLEW OUT OF PROPORTION. GRUDEN WILL NOT BE THE COACH MOVE ON GET OVER IT AND SUPPORT WHOEVER IS HIRED.

 

[VolMater]

So nfl teams want gruden even when he was fired from a previous nfl team... Hmmm... I'm prolly the only one finding that odd

I'd be willing to bet, that after Andy Reid is FIRED from Philly this season, he'll get picked up as a head coach somewhere else in the NFL. It's happens regularly.

 

[gobraves101035]

Screw you dave hart.

 

[BandVOL]

Sooooo........now what?

 

[ACvol3]

Dave Hart is single handedly burning this mother to the ground.

Why do u say that? Who's to say that there was never any way JG would ever come here? Or college at all? I don't this is on Hart at all.
