I’m a VFL & alum, so it pains me to say this. But, has it occurred to anyone that UT just isn’t the “destination” job for coaches any longer? We’re in mediocrity and have been for a decade+. For CJP, it’s either wait for your best hire to pick us or move on and get the best OC who would be...

This will be my last post on VolNation for a while. Here are my thoughts: 1) Nothing against Gruden as a coach (and I wanted him at UT), but he played the admin/boosters and should never be contacted for the position ever again. 2) I have reservations about Pruitt (Bammer, trouble with...

Try Old Grandad 114. Great value bourbon.

Does anyone remember when in the timeline Griden’s agent said “no” in 2012? I honestly can’t remember.

Why can’t the announcement be Tuesday? There will be a four hour CFP playoff selection show today on ESPN. Seems like today is not the best day for max attention. Monday is probably out. Tuesday seems more logical.

This thing with the media feels very much like last year’s election. Media elites telling Americans what they should believe. Right or wrong UT fans/alumni can decide on their own what they will spend their hard earned dollars on. Guess what? If the product on the field at Neyland continues to...

After what happened Sunday, which was a beautiful thing on the part of Vol Nation, Currie won’t dare try to ram another coach down our throat. What happened Sunday has put all ADs on notice. The article quoting OSU’s AD basically alluded to this change in dynamic. Fans now are empowered. That’s...

First, as a UT alum, I am proud of Vol Nation for standing up yesterday for the essence of what UT really is. Great moment in history. Second, something is bothering me about what happened. Things felt very choreographed yesterday. Gruden article comes out. Then immediately, news leaks of...

Any insiders with words of encouragement? We have people going cra-cra in here...

Leaks have started just as insiders predicted...

If true, why wouldn’t Gruden or his agent come out and squash all rumors? Wouldn’t ESPN have a vested interest in Gruden publicly stating he’s not interested (as he did last time)?

And, let’s be honest, there are many here in this thread that need a lot of hand holding. Everyday is like a roller coaster. Insiders have to step in and calm everyone down. Has anyone thought that perhaps the insiders are celebrating right now with other insiders because the “Eagle has landed”...

Not that this tells us anything, but just interesting that on Wed ESPN was runn Ng adds for MNF. The add originally started with the long version with showed Gruden & Terico (sp?). Yesterday, they continued showing the add, but shortened it by no longer showing Gruden or Terico...

Agreed - either Kelly’s agent trying to get his client more money or Admin trying to keep Grumors at a minimum. Just like everything nowadays, you can’t believe everything you see in MSM.
