Babyvol made this post at 11:31 pm tonight:

I'm not caving....all I'm apologizing for is wrong date. I gave you guys the Dooley firing but missed date of announcement. I gave you Gruden hiring....just wrong date. Let it play out guys and you will see I know what I'm talking about. I'm not gonna make a bunch of posts about it but my info is solid. I told you guys the media hasn't been right about anything! Someone will swoop in and appear to save the day on Gruden. Just sit back...watch....and let it play out.

Yea mayne. that ain't helpin
 
Chattanooga TFP just published another article. Here is a quote from their article:

"Anyone who says there were no talks between the two sides or that Jon was not putting together a staff and believing that he would be the next UT coach is misinformed," one source told the Times Free Press on Friday evening. "It can be spun a lot of different ways, but the bottom line is there were discussions going on and he seriously believed this thing would get done."

Apparently has well-placed sources and has provided correct info in the past. I don't get on TOS too much anymore, so someone else may have better insight into him.

Does anyone know where he stood on the Shannon deal? If there even was a shannon deal.
 
I say this much after 3 time's that word has come from gruden 1-mike n mike, 2-his agent, and 3-espn breaking new's that gruden himself told UT no. I wish the vol's defense had the refuse to give up attitude some of you guy's have! We would atleast be 10-2 right now! Here's to hope all those no's don't mean no afterall

....but sometimes no means yes?

Jack Crowe is out at Jacksonville State University.

Well, I appreciate you, boro, jay, dto, beecher, bcarter and the others who came forth with info. I will believe it isn't Gruden when the Vols introduce a coach and it isn't Gruden.
 
Just heard KPD got a call from 911 said Dave Hart was calling from his residence and freaking out blubbering something about a "Chucky" doll with a kitchen knife in the hallway outside his bedroom.

Which makes me believe more strongly that Hart derailed the train because Gruden was not his guy!!!
 
I never said I liked him but I think it's pretty obvious that this "beef" with him and the boosters is a little stretched.. There's something to it but he has the right power players and they are riding with him

I'm not sure.

Take the post Pearl basketball search. Hamilton sought the council of Ernie Grunfield and people in the basketball community. Rather than going with a hot name like S. Smart...we got Martin. Hamilton never would have arrived at that conclusion w/o EG.

In this case, it appears, Manning and others have given Hart advice and he is either, playing the game to fit with Gruden's timeline or he's ignoring the advice.

I do not have any E - Cred, no sources, no friends in high places. I'm a football guy, played, coached, study...this is a power play and you don't line up in a power I and run to the formation unless you can win.

This buisness about Tennessee being to big of a job for Gruden, I do not buy. That's a loser mentality and I don't know him, but that dog don't hunt.
