I know I am definitely in the minority when I say this, but I believe tomorrow is the day that Jon Gruden will be announced as the next head coach at the University of Tennessee. There is definitely something to the security stuff regarding the UTPD and KPD. I hear all about this at lunch today, then I get on here and you guys are posting pictures of a prepped locker room ready for a press conference. Why is the University putting all of this together right now if (according to the media) we don't have our guy?

hate to be a debbie downer about the police stuff but as i was telling bcarter earlier my buddy is a fire fighter in knox and his father is a high ranking officer in the kpd and i finally got in touch with them and they have heard nothing about anything like that, of course he just may not be "in the know" but i feel like he would. and who knows maybe hes not supposed to talk about it and didnt tell his son anything because of that. hope thats the case cause i want him here big time!!! TIFWIW

Sorry if this has already been addressed, but for whatever reason I can't get to the last page of the cliff notes. I have 50 posts per page set (so presently there are 10 pages to the cliff notes thread), but whenever I click "Last page" I get taken to page 9. If I click page 10, it just refreshes page 9. Anyone know anything about this?

Had it yesterday. Got it to change by changing number of posts per page.

Just delete your cache or reboot. Should fix it.

So @R3TSR1180 (Tony B's co-host) posted:

"I heard from a little birdie a news paper not from Knox is gonna break some BIG news soon"


Then immediately deleted it, and posted this in response to @krcenter81 when asked why:

"wasn't supposed to know. Made a mistake. My bad. Wasn't trying to stir people up"

Followed it up with:

"yeah. It's fine. It was vague enough I think. Lol"


Opinions?

Yeah no one would construe a sports radio personality's tweet to be about the biggest sports news to hit the state in years.

Dave Hart is about to shoot a commercial for the VolNation which will go along the lines of.... "Do you think you have what it takes to fill this headset on the Tennessee Sideline in Neyland Stadium? This could be you. Give me a call at (800)-1GO-VOLS!"

Havent been on these boards in a few years but got curious with the Gruden thing...Wow! Things have been busy!
(Below info and my ID can be verified by kiddiedoc and Freak)

1. The OG's as you call them have told you accurately. Their info lines up with what I had been told several times via a prominent booster with "unique" knowledge of this process along with corroborating secondary sources. I shared some of this information with the aforementioned Mods.

2. Gruden hire has been in the works for quite a while.

3. He agreed to become our next HC or around Oct 24 (when I received the text message).

4. This was reaffirmed to me as recently as Thanksgiving, i.e. "Gruden is done…"

5. Talks of "meetings" and what not falling through makes little sense under this context. A process that has already been agreed to in principle, and carried this far, would not be relying on an interview into December to “discuss the possibility” of this or that. He could have politely said no anywhere along the line weeks or even months ago.

6. Whatever else might remain, if anything, must be either a) legal stuff that simply takes a little work, b) he has a timeline that must be fit for reasons we are not necessarily privy to, or c) he backed out at the last minute. The rest it just noise. And unless he backed out in his sleep, and no one told anyone, the deal is still on.

7. The idea that Hyams and Hubbs got wind of a "special meeting" at the same time, of which they had no prior knowledge of, with a “non-candidate,” strikes me as being very suspicious. Almost as if someone wanted to quite things down? Just an opinion, I do not know that one way or another.

Hopefully that added a little something. There is much hope. Consider the merits as you will.

Glad I don't have class tomorrow. I'm having a hard time buying in though honestly. UT always seems to come out on the negative end of these types of situations.
