My "source" has not given me a bullet list of things that are going on, or made wild claims or any predictions about future events. He gave me exactly one piece of information, but he is absolutely in the exact position to give me that one piece of information. That piece convinces me that Gruden was done 2 days ago.

As always, TIFWIW.

He handed Gruden the pen?

Honestly I hope Gruden has taken the job. If he hasn’t and doesn’t plan to, he needs to say so. I will not be a Gruden fan if after this, he decides not to and wasted all this time when we could of aimed for Kelly.

I hope he realizes his reputation will be much different either way with the way he has let this go on. If he doesn't take the job, I'm sure there will be much more like you who will be done with him. If he accepts the job then everybody loves him.

I was there with Grid (Chuck), RobtNAtl, Vol12, Lil Flower, Bivins, Holyland Vol, Profiler, Jumpmaster, and many others. Many of us met at several games, including in Tuscaloosa in I believe '99 or '00, and the NC game in Tempe. RobtNAtl went to the Grand Canyon with my wife and me. He was the best poster on any Vol message board ever--no one else even came close. I miss him.

The Grude News, addditional breaking news this morning. For those just joining us...

OX0yQ.gif


We're a bit gloomy this morning, so I'll whip up something slightly lighthearted for those tuning in. Do not despair folks, we're getting there. But, in other news...

Volnation Enterprises and Freak specifically have called off the text to voice actors and released them from their contracts since the cage matches were getting fairly violent including the Cinderella story Betty White making it to the Sweet 16 before finding out she had been using brass knuckles and spiking the pre-bout drinks with Visine drops in their Gatorade.

Instead, he'll be introducing intro songs for each poster as they post. Several songs have already been picked out for various posters such as:

Insomnia by Faithless for FiveFingerVolPunch

I'm so excited by the Pointer Sisters for SmokeyHuntsGators

Tubthumping by Chumbawamba for Coasty

Ape's intro will be anything by the band Rammstein since, much like his posts, nobody understands the lyrics anyway, but it's good music

I can't wait by Nu Shooz was nominated as SFD's official song

Power T Rev's posts will be proceeded by BB King's Get out of here

Dudley's intro song will be Can't make up my mind by The Shining

Beaver's posts will be started with The Final Countdown by Europe

Freak's (obvious) intro song will be Return of the Mack by Mark Morrison...

And we have to listen to the whole song and the entire VN forum is put on hold because, well, Freak.

Any time Volly and I are talking and a hater of ours tries to interrupt, The System's Don't disturb this groove will automatically play regardless of his theme music.

All troll posts will be sought out by an AI web machine that will automatically replace the text with a picture of dancing Daniela. However, please don't make troll posts just to get that reaction as Freak will revoke it and replace it with a half nekkid dancing dude...on second thought, that has the potential for disaster as well as I just saw DynaLo and Wild @s a Mink perk up. Anyway, there are some exceptions to this rule:

Any time the word "Mullen" is mentioned, the scene "what's the most annoying sound in the world" from "Dumb and Dumber" will play and the text will automatically be replaced with a picture of Harry Dunne and Lloyd Christmas.

Any time Catbone posts, regardless of where in the entire forum, his posts will automatically be replaced by the "Price is Right" losing horn and a picture of a mule.

When it was pointed out sometimes posts come almost right on top of each other, Volnation Enterprises Science Division spokesman said "we're working on modifying the code that will allow for at least 10 seconds of lapse each time something new is posted so each reader can hear who is posting." When it was also pointed out it might take someone days to read each thread since they last logged on as well as the technical problems of having multiple tabs open, scientists noted "we didn't say it wasn't without snags. We're working on it and should have an answer...soon."

From the entire Volnation News Team, I'm Grand Vol and yo Adrian! I did it!

Yeah, I know he went to a few games. He did go to the NC game with some friends I believe. Apparently someone chartered a jet out of Tri-Cities Airport. I'll have to ask him some questions when I see him next. I keep trying to get to him to come to VN, but he's a fan of TOS.

I've been around a long time and managed through all of Gruden '12 and '17.

Through all the weeds, I hold two things significant:

1. AV
2. Bubba

The Bubba phenomenon is something from the very first post that totally stuck out in my mind (10 year member, first post).

After his post last night, and AV's silence, I am very optimistic.

Either way, Coach @$$hole is gone and we will be fine!

One thing he said that caught my attention: When Swain asked him about why there are many different stories about who we are talking to and Gruden himself.....

Hargis said "It depends on who you are talking to and who are your sources" I believe this is a LOT of what is going on here on Volnation.....

I do NOT BELIEVE that the insiders are trolling but they are reporting what they hear from their source...

My recommendation (for whatever that is worth) Listen to all and weight their information with what YOU KNOW and believe and make up your own mind...

Sure sounds good. Like the rest of us I want the best for our players and this fan base we deserve it.

Point here was that if its announced before season's end, it will not be done at the stadium during pre-game or the game itself, as some have suggested. That's crazy. There is no way they upstage the current players in that fashion.

I can agree with that but it should definitely be announced ASAP. The edge in recruiting is way more important. Again, so I do not jinx it, Gruden ain't coming.
