Official Jon Gruden Thread IV

Waaah. This entire grooden thread has been nothing but a place, a wish hole, whatever you call it, to replace our current coach. That's fine. 3weeks ago it was a little grumbling that has, now, become an incessant Dooley bashfest. He has been called everything - you read it Coasty - yesterday he was called an azzhole on this site. How many new accounts have been created with some sort of anti-dooley name or a new grude-dude type name. It's this type of low class, knuckle dragging, mouth breathing mentality that will force any future coach or recruit to think twice about representing our university. As pervasive as social media is today you can bet that the Dooley's AND THE TEAM know it exists.

I for one think that Coach Dooley has gave his all for the University. He has represented the University with class. For what it's worth, whomever our next coach is I really feel kind of sorry for him.

You have a right to your thought about Coach Dooley, as I have the same to mine. That was not your OP, you said that the Grudenites where all as guilty as the people who heckled Coach Dooley's family in person at the USCjr game.

I can not account for everyone who posts in this thread as a Grudenite, nor everyone who posts as a Dooley supporter, but when you lump all Gruden supporters into
the same group and say that ... I TAKE OFFENCE. I do not know you, and I bet you are a good peorson, however when you say i am as bad as they, when i ask for a new coach...You are WRONG... Had I been present at the game and witnessed what was reported, I would have not been standing by and doing nothing.

It was a shame and a disgrace to treat his family that way and I do not like being told I would have and am doing the same when this is simply untrue.

As far as me reading it, I have been faithfully in this thread minding my own business all along... I think I am well aware of what has been posted.

I have read same type post, about Dooley in the game threads, and the threads supporting others coaches, do you believe anyone who wants Dooley gone is also just as guilty????

I dont think there is 1 recruit who wuld play for DD that wouldnt play for Gruden. In fact, I would be pretty certain there would be a whole new batch of players lining up with Gruden.
 
If Hart retains Dooley he's committing career suicide. Dooley is going to have the same if not worse record next year. The outcry is just going to get louder and louder. Money coming in is going to get less and less.

Don't be indecisive and pull the trigger!

Not the argument. The argument is would a recruit give Tennessee the benefit of the doubt with an "up and comer" coach. No they wouldn't has the edge IMO. It has everything to do with comfort, relationships, and uncertainty with schemes, assistants and coaches
 
This thread is driving me NUTS!! Does someone not know how to hack into Harts email, or even Cindy Brooks-Grudens facebook?!?!?

We need some answers!!!
 
I dont think I can handle having an Athletic Director from Alabama trying to look at us with a straight face and tell us that Dooley is staying!

So you agree that all this Dooley bashing is uncalled for?

Oh yeah, if UT hires an unproven coach, I agree 100pct. Thought we were saying if Gruden was the guy. My bad
 
I know I am in the minority... but I wouldn't mind that. I want Derrick Green to come to Tennessee and a decent D would show a different W/L Record. I want a decision.

This has been my opinion since Miss St:
I would not mind Dooley being fired, if and only if, Tennessee signs its "Nick Saban". I do not want some up and comer. I do not want a guy that has to explain himself to current commits. I want a guy that comes in and creates instant excitement from us, the fan base, and recruits. Tennessee the program, cannot afford an up and comer. We will be set back more years and I am not about that life.

So you're saying you would rather have Derrick Green than Jon Gruden.

edit: (my bad. Did not read it all)

Yes... there is no need for personal attacks on Coach Dooley but especially on his family. That does not change the fact that i think he is over his head, and not a good coach for UT.

But you did not say that, you said that all grudenites on this thread were as bad as the people who harassed his family.

So Do you agree that you were wrong in that, that is the question???
