Official Jon Gruden thread 32.

[paige_09]

something tells me Currie will close his eyes and stick his hand in a jar filled with mid-major coaches and just hope to pull out a good one.

I took this literally for some reason and pictured a bunch of miniature-sized coaches that all desperately cling to his hand and he kinda has to shake them off as he removes his hand containing chosen one.

Basilio is getting super real man, y'all gotta listen!

 

[UTVolinExile]

Some people will never be happy. But cheers brother.

Ain't that the truth.

 

[Vols_Life]

Knuckle and Squints, 🤜🤛, fist bumps to you both for defending your stance and comments, but let's all just enjoy the news about the firing...but I will ask you both one question that you must really consider...































Where the hell is Daniela? Does she know about Butch...I suspect she would be dancing😀😀

 

[ER Vol]

Have a friend who is hospitality manager at the hotel. That’s all I can say.

Also it’s not unusual for network broadcast teams to switch hotels the night before a game.

That is plenty, thanks for the info! SOON.....

 

[I Love Lamp]

Never understood the UF hype. Other than recruiting base (which they have to share with two other power programs), what do they have that's better than UT?

Facilities? No.
Stadium? No.
Fan base? No.
Money? No.

They've only won big when they've had two of the all time greatest coaches. And one was an alum.

Yea that was kind of his points too. Mentioned that AD being in bad shape now that Foley is gone too.

 

[UTSuave’]

TB saying it is a miracle somebody hasn't met BJ out in a parking lot and beat the hell out of him after what happened with Daniel Helm

What's the back side story to that?

 

[LoudOrange]

Gundy just wants a raise.

 

[JackWhite]

Better buckle up, the **** that is going to come out on Lyle is going to have your head spinning.

Part of the blame lies with the fans that gave him air cover.

 

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

Basilio is getting super real man, y'all gotta listen!

Cliffs notes!!! At work!!!

 

[LakeMaryFLVol]

FWIW this tidbit. Gruden just checked out of his hotel in Charlotte

Thread has reach..

 

[Vol2B]

What's the back side story to that?

He's telling it now.

 

[Ten_Titans]

I'm gonna reply once and just once. Are you really trying to stir up crap, is it worth it? You're posts seem to indicate as such. Really all I'm gonna say. Time to drop the drama for real.

Well. That was a joke. Not sure why you're talking to me. I didn't get mad and start threatening people. I just pointed out how immature it was.

 

[VolDefense]

Basilio is getting super real man, y'all gotta listen!

can you paraphrase? can't listen unfortunately.

 

[Squints]

My bite I waaaay bigger than my bark.

Lol. The fact you felt the need to tap on your chest like a silverback gorilla tells us all we need to know. You're the true epitome of an internet tough guy.

 

[RockyTopSC]

So far his timeline has been a clown show that has caused a massive hit to UT's image. He needs to have actually been doing something very worthwhile during that time rather than actively trying to find a way to keep Butch. If he has done his job, it should at minimum leak that he's got his guy. If he's not been aggressively working to hire a coach, we're screwed.

Maybe it has already been leaking...

 

[peerless98]

Not if he has status or pre-arranged late check out.

jk I was just trying to lighten it up in here. I feel like Mills Lane

 

[Thall17]

I need a fresh batch of grumors asap. This is early christmas sunday.

 

[onevol74]

Memorandum Of Understanding line 1.
Gruden will ride his white horse up Cumberland and take the reigns of Tennessee's football program when Butch is officially fired.

Are you kidding? He will ride up Cumberland in a purple robe on the back of an a$$ with palms being laid on the pavement.

 

[Vol2B]

can you paraphrase? can't listen unfortunately.

Telling the D. Helm story, or starting to. Sounds like it's gonna make Butch look real bad :unsure:

 

[revjayp]

Also, Gainesville makes Knoxville look like Paris.

Been to Paris. It wreaks of quitting and cowards. Lol.

 

[WhiteRhino]

Quick some get ainge and see if he still wants to bet!!!!!!!

 

[UTSuave’]

He's telling it now.

If you don't care give me some tid bits in can't listen

 

[Coastypop]

Maybe. But you went nuclear. You DID call them out when you said “same posters as last time.” Just own it, man. It’s okay to be emotional and say things but own it.

I did own what I said concerning DTO's post but when someone says I called out Boro they are wrong....

I said iifc "That I heard the same things in 2012 by the same posters" ... if some believe I was referring to them... they have that right... but I WAS NOT... I was emotional and as you know I was burnt by this thread in 2012 just like you.... SO I AM VERY SKEPTICAL for that reason.... I have been on the lower range of believing for about two weeks now and have expressed it...

My source has refused to comment about Gruden and still says "No way it will happen" he has been right every time for the last three hires.... maybe he is wrong this time... but I trust him... yet I am suppose to just blindly take the word of posters I have never met over someone I know both personally and professionally.

If you believe I was out of line... I understand, but I have a right to ask questions and state opinions...

I am here because I WANT GRUDEN just like all. but I am skeptical at this point and have decided to take the I will believe it when I see it point of view...

If that makes me evil, the so be it, But it is hard to go against a long time friend who has never been wrong in the past

 

[EastTN]

Basilio said he told Helm in front of the whole team to write on a piece of paper 100 times..."I am a pus@@"
