Many say that the photo isn't Currie, but I'm an Intel guy and I took some time to analyze the photo. It's definitely him. Down to the glasses. My only concern is when was the picture ACTUALLY taken. Is the source reliable and that it was in fact today. If that was taken today, then Currie was/is on a plane cause that's him.

That guy is wearing the watch Currie always has on too.

You know who could figure this whole thing out fairly quickly? 4chan

Then they would send pizzas to his house.

Yet people try and say this is not a elite job anymore.... Tennessee: It just means more

Yeah that talk is silly. Tennessee has everything in place to be elite. The only thing missing was administration and coaching. Were USC, Oklahoma, Miami, etc considered elite jobs during their downturns? No, but all it took was the right coach to make them elite again. Tennessee is the same.

Brice: I know for a fact other media outlets have spoken to Gruden and he has told them he is interested in UT. Brice does not know why they won't report it

People are scared of getting burned again

I have seen posters throw out the I know one of the “BOT” comment but never a name. Well, I’m breaking that trend. A family member of mine has a mentor that is a BOT...that man is no other than John Foy. He was mentored by Mr. Foy when he was high up at CBL (they own and operate large malls across the US). I believe his duty on the board is mostly on the academic side but he obviously is in the know on these type of decisions. He told my family friend that he said we have Jon Gruden. He would be bewildered if it didn’t happen. He said due to his position on the board he couldn’t give out too many details but that it should be before the last game of the year that it’s announced.

What the?

Urban Dictionary: Foy

It's funny the Nega Grudes come on this thread just to say he's not coming. Well ask any of them WHY?. Most have not much to say other than he has it made at MNF and he has Gruden QB Camp Oh and could coach in the NFL.

About 80% or better have no clue about whats going on at ESPN and other places in NFL. For those nay sayers I'd like to try to help you understand why he would come to UT.

1. ESPN is going broke
2. NFL is no longer watched by 1,000's cause the POS in the NFL are not greatful to the Great American Flag what it stands for and those who died for it.
3. Gruden is not having a QB Camp this year its already been waxed by ESPN due to money.
4. MNF is leaving ESPN to a diff network (Again ESPN) is going broke.
5. Cindy is from UT
6. Jon's Son goes to UT.
7 Cindy wants to move back to Tn
8. The Gruden family just bought a freaking huge house in knoxville thats not for just his son.
9 Jon said UT was his Dream Job
10. It didn't happen in 2012 cause of several reasons
10 A. Timing wasn't right
10 B. Jon had just signed a new MNF contract.
10 C. Haslam was in the way.
10 D. The money wasn't there for the Assistants.
10 E. AD at the time wouldn't give Jon the Control he wanted.
11. It's Freaking Tennessee that's why
12. This time Charlie Ergen has been working for 5 years gainnning more and more money, backing, lining up boosters, and getting ready to push the Haslams out so they stop making UT the Knoxville Browns.
13. He's Chucky.
14. He's been to the NFL already
15. The man lives and breathes UT, Hell he even has orange hair.
16 AGAIN IT"S TENNESSEE
17. TENNESSEE is the only college he would coach.
18. Unlike 2008, 2012 Gruden has not denied it one time this time and Grumors are everywhere, If he didn't want it to happen he would have already stopped the Grumors and said he didn't want the job.
19. Gruden has been in Knoxville more in the last month than he has in 5 years.
20. UTAD Plane has made several trips to Florida last couple weeks

I thought this needed repeating from Gruden XXXI.

Epic post! :rock:

Secretariat won the 1973 Belmont Stakes, and the Triple Crown, by 31 lengths, the largest margin of victory in Belmont history.

One of my favorite movies.

They could both drive to Bristol faster.

 

[BurninOrange]

Not in my wheelhouse. Sorry.

Need the ball peen hammer for that post. 🔨

 

[BigpapaBleedsOrange]

Listening to Basilio Show and every single person he has on there thinks there is just no way Gruden is coming. Even going as far as saying TN could have reached out to Schiano, etc. in the last few days... I swear I go from He's Coming 100% to $#@^* he isn't coming every 5 minutes! KILLING ME!

 

[kyvolsfan]

Deuce?

SIAP, but why would Currie need to go vet or interview a S&C coach.

 

[KPT_VFL]

First time on today, what’s the latest?

I'm having it sanitized and polished after it was loaned to Ape. It will be ready for the big announcement.

 

[EastTN]

Not enough duct tape to stop the leaks that are happening and/or will happen between now and whenever an announcement will happen. Damn will break soon.

I think it is being help with a used wad of gum at this point SHE's close boys and girls
