Official Jon Gruden Thread 33

[Orange_Crush]

Did you all catch what Trey said about Gruden contacting a former UT coach about coming back? Dont know if it is the reports about Chavis we've heard or if it could be Fulmer or someone else?

Maybe Gruden is Jon Bon Jovi trying to get the original Cinderella lineup back together?

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

Much more likely that he ends up back in the NFL than here.

could be Kevin Steele.

 

[Jcates23]

The surprise better not be a big steamy pile of Mullen.

Daniella barely wearing orange is my guess

Jay Graham and Randy Sanders would both fit that description and both of those names have already been rumored by other sources to have been contacted.

trey wallace

60% chance still

things are in motion from gruden with staff

interest in college is real

great oc, db, rb coaches

gruden in and out of ktown ... told he'll be in this weekend, and for a couple days leading up to lsu game

top 5 best fit in your opinion ... gruden, frost, mullen

frost with fl slowed down, wants time for the season at ucf ...
sortof shot down kelly to uf at this moment, but said kelly approached uf

boosters spearheaded effort, giving to currie, currie saying lets do what we need to do
gruden using haslam's plane, they're trying to entice him

other ktown media starting to report what he's been saying for 3 weeks, should get ut fans excited

100% sure something is going on between ut and gruden ... doesn't mean is a lock

an offer has been made 7.8 plus incentives = 10.2 range

props to brice

have reached out to mullen to gauge interest 2 weeks ago

90% chance we land one of the three coaches he listed

can't hire bobo ... won't excite fanbase ... ut knows what they have to do

money isn't a factor right now ... we got the money this time
ut is willing to pay ... then says frost or mullen (puke)

rumors from 2012 staff ... what's changed this time ... says leadership at ut changed, making the rumors this time more credible

says davenport will sign off on whatever they put in front of her

says cheek and hart were the problem last time, but leadership won't be the problem this time

will continue to follow ut story and report

says resolution on kendrick story will come out in next couple days

butch is NOT a power 5 coach right now

i expect a lot of likes for this
you're welcome

Newds sent.

Brett Farve??

 

[ALLVOL 4LIFE]

eh, we can, and have, done a whole lot worse than Mullen.

and i just don't see patterson or peterson leaving their current positions. yeah, i'd take either one. just don't see them as realistic.

if we're really looking at Gruden/Frost/Mullen, and get one of them, i think you could say "well done".

fwiw.

Not me! No well done from me, unless those are the options after every splash hire name has said no 5 times.

 

[Wild @s a Mink]

I try to treat the ladies of the forum as such and be a gentleman. All the lovely ladies of the Gruden threads should be treated with the utmost respect and honor.

Well said, sir!:victory:

 

[Chilmonty]

Smoke Screen!! :blink:

[ASamWitch]

wouldn't be surprised if it broke on Mike and Mike, its their last week after 18 great years.......would be nice to go out on a bang!

Interesting. Would be like going out John Ward style...

 

[beachmaster]

I tried to go through this thread this time without putting anyone on ignore. Just couldn't do it! I still don't understand why people who don't believe, want to try and convince me why I should change my mind, or people trying to rescue me from my self. It's impossible to go through the replies since people keep quoting them. So, I have failed in my attempt.......guess I'll sleep better tonight.

 

[sunnyvol79]

Tampa is a smokescreen. He’s Tenn bound!

 

[GoBigOrange55]

Randy Sanders

 

[Jake]

I cant believe this name was available!

So now you’re a believer.

 

[Coastypop]

Yes, that's it. People keep asking why don't he come out and let us know. Well, he did, 3 days ago

Would you PLEASE highlight the statement in that quote where he shoots this down.... I am not seeing what you are

 

[yuenglinguy78]

Or is he using Tennessee to get NFL teams to come running?

 

[Vol4ever]

let the meltdown begin.....

 

[Captainzach1]

Saw on Twitter that the TB guy specifically said he wasn’t going to Tennessee Tampa Bay Beat Writer Comments On Jon Gruden And Tennessee Vols

 

[vol.E]

Wow, Trey Wallace. My new favorite reporter.

If he's correct he will instantly become the front runner media voice followed by the bulk of VN

 

[LakeMaryFLVol]

Well ESPN suppose to break it

 

[Wild @s a Mink]

Dude, she wants you to ask for her number! You're golden!

No, no, no!

Southern girls have a penchant for subtle flirting without realizing they’re doing it. :birgits_giggle:

 

[Freak]

This part though...

Kaufman also said Gruden’s announcing career has run its course and that Gruden doesn’t have the same passion for the job now that he’s not paired with Mike Tirico, who became a close friend during their years together.

 

[Sstterry]

Maybe driving from Charlotte to Seattle (where the next MNF game is)?

Was Gruden driving it???
