I'd say just the opposite....you don't address something that has no basis in reality....this was the first real sign from Gruden that things are happening.

I expect this will be the thread we find out one way or the other whether he's our coach...

Idk, the way folks around here freak out, we could be into XIII or XIV by the time it comes out!!

If the deal isn't finalized, it's in his and UT's best interest to keep mouths shut and deny deny deny!!

Play taken out of Business and Politics 101!

Pay attention to tone and body language; you'll find the truth there.

If he is tired of hearing this stuff he could have ended it all this morning..perfect chance and just put it to rest..especially when he was clearly upset with them for bringing it up..but he didn't. If you're tired of it..end it! The good news folks is this thing is about to get resolved sooner than later now I believe.

Gruden also chuckled and said he was going to have to tell his wife the story about partial ownership. This was after Mike brought up the story basically making fun of it. Am I the only one that found it a bit off he knew exactly how much $$$ Philly would be under the salary cap plus other personnel moves for Philly.

Gruden shot down rumors but saban still isn't going to Alabama.

Gruden is not the type of guy to put anything "to rest".

He will keep all his options open if for nothing else but to play off of each of them to get the best deal he can.

Gruden would not reject UT publicly, he would just take another job.

So in other words, this statement means absolutely nothing to you. The Grude is a brilliant man.

I agree with you. I meant that it doesn't mean he's not coming.

I don't blame M&M for asking just doing their job..Gruden did sound uncomfortable about it...I still don't think he's coming though let's move on:peace2:

For those of you panicking, remember this; Urban Mayer denied having any talks with tOSU THE DAY BEFORE it was announced he would be their new HC.

Things are getting REALLY interesting....

GRUDEN ON MIKE AND MIKE THIS MORNING: GREENBERG: ...How are you Jon? GRUDEN: I'm doing fine. Good morning guys. MIKE AND MIKE: Good Morning GREENBERG: We'll start with this, because it's happened again. Now there's a report, and look if your gonna be connected to jobs it might as well involve the Governor of Tennessee. News Channel 3 has learned that you, Jon Gruden, have a contract offer in h...and, from the University of Tennessee and that a decision could be made as early as today. Part of this apparently is that you would get a piece of the Cleveland Browns who were recently bought by Jim Haslem who is a huge Tennessee booster cause he played at Tennessee and he is the father of Tennessee Governor Bill Haslem. So, first and formost Jon is this, is there any truth to this whatsoever? GRUDEN: "No there isn't. I should probably tell my wife that because it does involve her and my kids. But no there's no truth to that. I'm just excited about Monday Night Football and getting ready for the Giants and the Redskins." MIKE: Okay, thats good because if you were gonna go we would like to talk about some sorta cabinet position with the Tennessee Government: GOLIC: That's exactly right, that's some kinda pull. Yeah. GRUDEN: "Yeah, I apologize, I really don't have time to get into all that stuff. I like what I'm doing. I'm just trying to hang on to the job I have to be honest with you. So, let's leave it at that and get into the real nuts and bolts of the Mike and Mike Show..." (Goes on to discuss NFL)

He had the chance to say he was not going to coach Tn. and never said it.I disagree I think he knew the questions were coming and already had his answers to them.I dont think ESPN would let MandM just ask him with out him saying it was ok.
