"So who is realistic at Tennessee? Anyone who mentions Jon Gruden in any capacity should be charged with journalistic negligence." - @PeteThamel
 
During the LSU game, when we're up 21-9, at half time Currie walks out on the field,"I'd like to introduce the next coach of the Tennessee Volunteers, Jon Gruden".:dance: Neyland would EXPLODE!!!!

Not sure we'd see that 21-9, at least not going our way.

How bout having him run through the T with the cheerleaders and Smokey, before the team and coaches?
 
I don’t know if anyone caught it or it got lost in the troll invasion, but someone replied to Beav on Twitter asking him what it meant and he said:

“The Stalking Horse reference will make sense after the announcement.”

He hasn’t wavered one single bit. Impressive. It’s like he’s Marty McFly with the almanac.

When I read the transcript earlier I questioned team meaning but like you could not get past he meant "AD staff" and nothing to do with Boosters and them whatnot people !

"we have a great team internally throughout the department"

He went on to talk about those on the fourth floor getting ready for the upcoming game, and other sports. I think the 4th floor is where athletic coaches and staff are located. He said he’d be leaning on them while he focuses on the coaching search, and I don’t think he meant to help him search. I got the impression he’s the one conducting the search and no one else. I just replayed the link and that’s still my impression but I could be misinterpreting his words.
 
What if beaver has been talking about Cooter this whole time??🤯

I can save everyone a lot if time. It is safe to remove Cooter from this coaching search. I will be utterly shocked if that is the man at the podium. That is no disrespect to Jim Bob and the wonderful progress he is making as a football coach.

Ok, I've given this a considerable amount of thought.....For full disclosure: some whiskey and Copenhagen has been involved.........

We talk to Gruden....if he says no, then we quickly snip a sample of his hair.........grab the DNA and clone us our own coach!!! Dilly Dilly! amiright........??

If Mullen is hired I'm done going out of my way to watch UT football.

It will be 5 more years of the same crap, with 1 more win a year. No east championships unless he catches lightning in a bottle.

Please, no Mullen.

He’d do great but he seems destined for a HC position soon.

Someone asked me today how I would choose for Gruden to announce he’s taking the job. He said he wanted him to do it on MNF.

I said I would want him to make an account and post as himself in the Gruden thread. After 30+ threads, hundreds of thousands of posts, and millions of views, to have the man himself come in here and give us the news would have to be the best possible ending.

Was curious if anyone else had a “dream” way for UT or Gruden himself to announce the hire?

Leading the team through the T Saturday.
 
So his failure would be limited to here and Twitter?

No, Beaver would be saddled with the failure. Not Ergen.

What I think it means is that Beaver's role in this is to pave the way.

If it fails, then he takes the fall in front of a bunch of anonymous hacks like us on the internet. The real players are not saddled with the bad result.

But, if it succeeds, then the real player(s) can step up at the last minute and take credit.

Beaver = Currie

It all makes sense now...

Agree. I don’t see any way we hire someone with no head coaching experience.
