[UTVolinExile]

This is really unhealthy. I selfishly need to know who the next coach is going to be soon!!! Lol

Gruden. Duh.

 

[Jcates23]

You aren't referencing Robert Mueller?

Think he was referencing the check my stats guy from 2012

 

[Hammer85]

It was Jones

???

 

[DougVol]

won a NC as vols OC

He coached the championship game as oc.

 

[Volfan76]

was Randy Sanders as bad as I remember as an OC or was he fulmers scapegoat?

Both...he was awful though. I remember sitting in the stadium and two old dude's behind me were predicting the next play with about 90% accuracy.

 

[bratenn]

I’m seeing Gruden in a lot national commercials tonight. Tennessee better pay up BIG time!...keeping the faith!

 

[tastycar]

No, the poster here who has dropped some inside info bombs and it seemed like he didn’t have a source... he was the source

Wait...was there a joke about this a few weeks ago? The guy being his own source...

 

[Christian Lowe]

Wouldn’t higher odds make Tennessee fans more inclined to bet?

correct. dropping the odds is due to people ALREADY betting heavily on Gruden to be the next HC.

The odds droping to near 1:1 means that Vegas wants to take minimal loses if Gruden gets hired

Don’t believe your eyes. They are a smokescreen

 

[GhostVol]

Not sold on Sanders...... Liked the cat as a player. As an OC? Don't really know.

What he did at TN as interim OC in the NC game in '99 I give him credit for.

The rest?...... Need to see some stats.

Make me wrong.

There are consulting firms with teams of analysts and machine learning algorithms that get paid to watch, for example, CEO announcements for signs of deception, exaggeration, etc.

Personally, I'm skeptical that the current state of the art in this field is much better than just common sense, but opinions differ.

FWIW, one of these firms has analyzed The Smirk from John Currie's press conference. They used a deep convolutional neural network along with human experts. Their conclusion was that it was a smirk of concealment, rather than ridicule.

Of course, this should be no surprise to any of you, but some people like to cover all their bases.

ahh...that takes me back to a little qalat in the desert in 2002 with a couple spotlights and a folding chair..

It's in the eyes.

Good times.

 

[SmokinBob]

Thanks! :hi:

If you get a chance, listen to that interview. He is definitely an old soul...such maturity.

You must have been watching very closely

 

[kayakonthefly]

No, the poster here who has dropped some inside info bombs and it seemed like he didn’t have a source... he was the source

If I remember correctly, wasn't it usually bad news? If so keep him the Heck out of here.

 

[MaTaLa]

Fade crying in other thread about he'll be glad when this is over so they can get the forum back from the Grudnites...haha.

Gruden Strong!!

 

[CINCYVOL]

Sources told us that Gruden has contacted three former Tennessee players who are currently college assistant coaches about the job and even potentially joining him.

One of them, sources told GoVols247's Wes Rucker, is Dale Jones, the former All-SEC linebacker who currently coaches linebackers at Appalachian State.

The other two coaches we believe Gruden reached out to are Florida State assistants Randy Sanders and Jay Graham. Sanders played quarterback at Tennessee and coached multiple positions on offense before becoming the coordinator during his 22-year stint in Knoxville. Graham starred for the Vols and his coaching resume includes a stint under Steve Spurrier at South Carolina and one season at Tennessee

Baby, go get me some of that chicken I like; I'm calling the boys over for practice.

 

[HausVol]

Welp, Tuesday is proven. So that must mean Rucker is FOS or Tee didn’t want to let the cat out of the bag.

I agree Tuesday has never waivered on his info.

Wait...was there a joke about this a few weeks ago? The guy being his own source...

No. A poster on here under the name Bob Mueller. He seemed like a legitimate insider. Not one who talks to sources but one who actually was the source.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Good question. Your body actually produces sugar and energy on its own. I use that. And a nice glass of the gods nectar, Dr. Pepper.

That's what I'm talkin' about..

My drink of choice..God's nectar.

SOON

 

[IN Jed]

I'm all in until it's all out.

 

[Cobb-Webb 1989]

It wasn't bad, Fulmer had the chance to bring cut home so he cut ties with Sanders

Fulmer had 5 years to cut Sanders out.

Fulmer was a hard head on that call and Dickey would have never put up with that BS

Sanders was clueless and terrible as the OC

Is this Leave Butch Alone? I don't believe it!! Finally got rid of that avi!

 

[jay-vol]

Just a quick question is anyone friends with T.hamilton on Facebook watch there live stream?

 

[Face]

Always bad news. Dude must have been in UT compliance or something and had stuff come across his desk
