Official Jon Gruden Thread IX

[Jake]

5 mins on that site and I have a new found hatred for the Hogs and their fans.

They're nasty and they stink.

 

[bray8]

Did anyone make this yet. . .I just had to. Someone needs to post it on the Arky thread.

its an ole arkyslaw circle jerk

 

[pattiycake]

Arkansa's new head ball coach.

I think they should keep John L! :whistling:

 

[RockyTopSC]

Yeah, Louisville. Tennessee Tech Alumni, though.... Just remembered we always had to make that trip to Gainesboro for liquor...

When were you at TTU?

 

[Unknown Muppet]

I went there a couple times..no more! Glad you made it out alive! :yes:

I went tonight and made it to the Cowher comment before I bolted. They seem to be smoking something other than the piggies over there.

 

[RWB427]

im gonna throw a name out there and tell me what you think. petrino

Needs to learn how to ride a Harley. If he knew how to ride with out dumping it he would still be the HC at Arky.

Ok, you have given us your opinion on the fans, now tell us about the pigs.

Something about that seems kind of shady.

Maybe, but the hiring rules for these large institutions put them at a disadvantage. You have to have mechanisms in place to compete with private industry who can go out and do a deal in a couple of days.

It is very normal.

As was discussed in this thread, mike price at Alabama never even had a contract. He only had an MOU in place while he coached there and when he was fired.

Same with Gillespie at Kentucky.

Coach Martin also worked for months with no contract in place.

Even better! John L is a great coach! I am pulling for him.

Neck brace.

Finally have liquor now. Small high gravity selection but getting better. Anyway I better not clutter this thread up, that's late shift stuff.

Bring on Gruden!

 

[Obsessed]

No I understand that aspect. It is more the posting for a job that is already filled. No really kosher.

 

[SpringBokVol]

All true, however it is pretty normal for all of this to happen after an offer has been made and accepted for said position.

That may not be the case here, but Gruden can accept and work under an MOU while all the legalese is worked out.

Also, the interviews can be phone interviews. They do not have to be in person.

You are obviously one of the most knowledgable people around here so I don't want to seem like I am disagreeing, rather, I don't want people to get freaked out over nothing.

This is 100 percent correct.

This may be normally true, but I believe Kiffin quit Jan 12th and Dooley was hired Jan 15th (3 days later).

Correct. Kiffin left the evening of the 12th and Dooley flew in on a broom on the 15th.

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

I don't believe the rule of having the job open for a set number of days but I do believe at least one Afircan American candidate has to be interviewed for the position

 

[GreatWhiteNorth]

when were you at ttu?

'94-'98

 

[JuggernaUT_VOL]

This is actually the VERY first sign that a child is gifted.

Yes trust me I've already looked into it...

BBQ Sandwiches from Archers BBQ in Bearden are freakin awesome!!!

 

[Velo Vol]
