Official Jon Gruden thread 32.

[crparker21]

Consider this scenario. In the coming weeks silence is still heard from the AD. All of a sudden on MNF McDonough says Gruden has a special announcement. Jon states this is his last season of MNF. Then segways into a diatribe about the true Spirit of Football. One of his favorites is when a high school player announces where he is going to play college football. Gruden then grabs a Tennessee hat and says, "I'm committing to making Tennessee Great Again starting next season!"

It won't be on mnf.

I hate to bring this, but I was just told.

My sources have said

"That Gruden has passed on the head coaching job at Tennessee. TIFWIW. They may be wrong but I have seen the text messages with my own eyes that we are out for him. Hopefully that info is wrong but I don't think so. Sorry to be the one to bring bad news on this."

Hopefully this is just trying to keep stories in check until people are ready to move forward. I'll check with another source and see what he says.

I see it is that time of night again

No Jon Gruden. Hell no.

Every time the head coaching vacancy comes up in Knoxville, Jon Gruden's name comes up because you guys get stars in your eyes.

Gruden then floats the idea of leaving to ESPN, using it as a way to get them to give him more money to keep broadcasting. IT'S HAPPENED EVERY SINGLE TIME HIS NAME COMES UP AS A COACHING REPLACEMENT AT TENNESSEE.

Tennessee needs a head coach who recruits well, with a proven winning record and genuinely loves the Big Orange and its fans. Jon Gruden has none of those abilities or capabilities. He ain't even a good NFL commentator.

I'm sick and tired of hearing Jon Gruden's name come up every time there's a vacancy. He needs to stay where he is, and we need to get us a great coach. Gruden is not. Dude... you're not in the running. Your number ain't coming up. I will personally travel the 100 miles to Knoxville myself and lobby AGAINST you if your name comes up, and I hope you are there visiting when I do.

Quit drinking the Gruden Koolaid, Vol fans. It ain't got no sugar in it.

I'd rather have Peyton Manning. Heck, I'd rather have Phil Fulmer back, before Jon Gruden. My mother would be a better choice.... at least, she has the dignity and respect to not use the offer to get more money out of her current employer.

Isn't there a story that Saban said no several times before saying yes?

All we can do is wait. And have fights at the Waffle House.

He got pissed with the media and looked everyone right in the face and lied his ass off. Hahaha

Thinking the same thing. Time to turn in and charge the battery.

Currie probably saw a replay of the presser and realized he needed to redeploy the smoke screen.

I sure hope you right. It does make a lot of sense.

 

[Cobb-Webb 1989]

Dan Mullen it is then

No Way!!!!!!!!

Freak knows how to make adjustments, unlike our recently fired football coach.

FREAK is resilient

 

[VolNExile]

Im waiting with bated breath.

OMG, someone spelled "bated" correctly! :salute:

People in the know aren't gonna randomly just text someone.... "oh, I need to text so and so, so that they know he isn't coming".... they would be to busy working on the deal or that person has 3rd hand info which is not credible.

That's my opinion anyways.

Ugh.. Hope not, Harry

 

[Harry Vols]

Somebody tell me why we are supposed to care what this guy’s “sources” have “said.”

Your not.

 

[CNeagleVolFan]

That's my opinion anyways.

Do you know 100% it’s Gruden?

 

[VOLED]

It won't be on mnf.

tell us what you know. I see no need for all the secrecy at this point.

You know you cannot believe what Butch says...hell, he just got $hit canned. Of course he is going to tell you stuff like that...

I was with you until you used that stupid slogan to end it. Its as overused as Butch’s ridiculous sayings

Yep...like the photoperiod of the sun.

Was this the same source that said the MOU had been signed???

The wife wants everything out this week. The older I get the more I’m down with that. It’s 2 days of solid work. Knock it out early and sit back and enjoy!

We just leave one up year round.

Espn hates us. Why do you think they pay him so much? They only want to keep him away

 

[Coastypop]

Thanks for the info but it's not accurate.

Please elaborate
