Official Jon Gruden Thread 33

I know it's not the same thing but back in '10 when LeBron James was deciding whether to stay in Cleveland or go to Miami, the Heat suspended season ticket sales during that time. Of course, once he decided the Heat jacked the prices up. It would have been profitable to have snuck in and grabbed some on the "cheap."

Is spreading the donation out new? I know with my Bucs tickets they let you spread it out over 12 months if you want...of course they'll do anything to sell season tickets.

I honestly have no idea. I dropped my tickets a couple years back (moved to Nashville and butch, well, was butch). I used to pay in full and don’t remember that option but I could be totally wrong. Also don’t recall it ever being this early. I know the total to be due in March in full as I recall, regarding the donation.

Hehe, I know. My reaction as well, before I saw who said it.

If you don't know that SFD is a woman, and apparently a RL friend to AllVol, that post sounds threatening and scandalous. :)

As was pointed out, Swain has been saying I'll believe it when I see it for a long time now. As in saying things like "Gruden is doing xxx but I'll believe he's the coach here when I see it."

I agree but he didn't just say I'll believe it when I see it- he said it's time to move on. What did he mean by that?!
 
WNML current situation, reading someone from footballscoop.com

Guy says Gruden hasn't contacted any coaches and it's absolutely untrue he has a shred of interest for UT job. Says that David Cutcliffe is on the Currie list. PJ Fleck is going to interview and be asked if he can beat Saban and that's the reason to look at him. Jimbo Fisher is willing to listen. (Ward and West say Jimbo couldn't take the heat here) No to Mullen. No to Frost.

They are giving this guy credibility. Unbelievable, then they wonder why people give them crap.

Got to be M Grif's list.... or what I call - emergency toilet paper.
 
Tasty, bro, read what he’s referencing. It isn’t even logical. PJ Fleck?? Seriously, you need to roll with the information leaks and crap coming out. Swain has BEEN saying he’ll believe it when he sees it. Nothing new here.

My idea of logical and former UT AD's idea of logical are two different things. That's why I remain cautious. But I know you're right on one hand, but the absolutists make me nervous.
 
Back to big toe. PJ Fleck is one of the most overrated coaches out there, and 34 times more annoying with cliches than Butch.

Don't worry, Will and Josh think Minnesota will win a bidding war against us.

The current stances of West/Ward.

UT won't pay money for a coach. UT won't give up booster control over coaches. Jimbo Fisher is thin skinned.

Very pro-Mullen.
 
Swain said what many feel. “Believe it when I see it.” It’s been frustrating for years seeing the coaching situation and honestly it’s jaded many of us. Most of us, including myself, really really hope for Gruden but we’ve seen this before and there’s always the chance our administration drops the ball once again. I hope I’m wrong and Gruden is the next head coach but there’s always that shred of doubt that exists.

You sure the Swain post on twitter was not fake account? I am looking at his twitter and see nothing of the sort
 
It is definitely not normal for UT to send out an email about next year's season tickets in November. With that being said it is a new AD.

Maybe they knew the numbers would drop, potentially significantly, if Butch was back next season. With the "hope" a new HC brings maybe they're trying to keep the numbers up, any way they can.

Is that true! Along with the other guys(coaches) mentioned! This is really happening!

Been reported he spoke to David about overseeing compliance?

Does the HC hire the NCAA compliance director or is that a hire made by the AD?
