Let me be clear. I'm on here constantly because my work is at a desk and when I am not working Im reading Volnation. This thread specifically. I just don't post as much because I am lazy in that dept. Nonetheless, I read every page and go back and read what I did miss. I'm not one of those that ask "what did I miss?" I read to form my own opinion.

My observation right now from our beloved Volnation "Insiders" is that this thing is a wrap. Just can't wrap my head around why SO MANY are flipping out still?!

2012 burned a lot of people. There is good news coming it seems but nothing “official “ has been released....and that has many nutted up. We’re on the precipice again with a Gruden signing. But we’re sooooo much closer this time and the propensity for it all to go wrong has folks worried.

I want it as bad as anyone but at this point it seems hopes are high, anyone else would be HUGE let down and be as divisive as the last decade, of course winning cures all but if the smoke isn't real it'd be in the best interest of the AD to grab the extinguisher asap to get us all back to earth and make a "good" hire.

Respectfully, I never said it was a "done deal"... you have NEVER read a post of mine that said that....

And as NEW information comes to me I may change again... Some people never change their mind because they trust one source completely and I understand that...as for me mine are complied from several and each day I hear something new sometimes it is extremely positive and sometimes it is negative ... When I change it is because I hear something that made me change.... It wears me out

Yep, I’m with Coasty.
He hasn’t guaranteed it’s a done deal.

Swain just replied to the Dead End BBQ pic that "It will be so good to see Gruden back at DEBBQ" . Someone asked WILL or WOULD??? He quickly deleted it. Wonder if he slipped or if he didn't wanna deal with answering the questions.

Swain has had the owner of dead end bbq on his show, fwiw.

I can’t remember if this is the one I saw on Facebook, so sorry if it’s been posted. I just figured some would like it.

I don't. I went to HS in Nashville....Overton class of '88. Moved to the Boro the first time in '99. I was living there when I registered on VN.

Overton class of 94! Go Bobcats! Off topic, but I just started a yoga club there yesterday for the nonprofit I teach for, Small World Yoga. It was surreal being back in the hallways. Good times!

Edited for ridiculously bad spelling

If either of those two came on and said "Its Done!" I would believe fully and start posting the Gruden Gifs I have on standby lol. I cannot say that about anyone else on this message board. You make a good point and Currie he is definitely much more competent than our last two and has done a great job of keeping everything silent from the AD end.

you are softening your stance....so it sounds like you're saying there is a chance...:)

Everyone knows Coasty's emotions and predictions rise and fall faster than an elevator in the Empire State building.

Give it a rest.

THIS^ Never trust Coasty, his Grude-o-meter may be new but his emotions and mind are old and worn out :)

Thanks for the help!:hi:

If Gruden keeps moving the goalpost, I winder where the cut off is?..

I mean, there has to be a tipping point somewhere as to where Currie says no.

I guess it depends on what is being asked for.

Swain doesn’t know. He’s been all over the place.

Just an opinion but lets look at what happened at Michigan. Harbaugh was hired as a "star" hire and now we look at the situation that his record is amazingly close to what Hoke's was.


No im not campaigning for Hoke. Im just saying because you hire a "star" coach it doesnt mean that you will be wildly successful.
Click to expand...

Pro style offense. Harbaugh is a good coach and a good recruiter. But he can't find a real pro style QB. They aren't coming out of HS anymore.

Maybe he isn't or maybe he is intentionally moving them because deep in his heart he doesn't want the job or is waiting to see if an NFL job opens up? Who knows but I wouldn't be too optimistic until he actually signs the contract.
