Boy now I am really confused…in a good way. Hope all these reports are accurate. If so, the information circle looks like a friggin pretzel right now. Because I heard some bad stuff about 10p tonight from someone that is involved in this thing.

As an aside, interesting development on TOS - apparently J Brice is saying Hart may quit if Gruden is hired? WTH?

 

[VoLunTiTan7]

Guys, it says he's weighing the offer and that we aren't meeting him on his assistants' salaries. I'm not ready to break out the bubbly just yet.

No way this deal gets held up over 2 million. Haslams can chip that off in the blink of an eye.

 

[zjcvols]

respect

Integrity right there.

 

[SandoVOL]

I want to give a huge shout out to the mods, great job with the cliff notes and keeping things as clean and tidy as you guys have, good job y'all. Gruden soon

Times free press was until recently owned by Ruth Holmberg. Her family owned papers all over the country, including the New York Times. My father was a heisman trophy voter there.

I'm so scared right now. I'm just gonna to do what's sensible, I'm gonna file for unemployment. Then I'm gonna try to get a job at Enterprise Rent-A-Car, because they got an excellent corporate structure and they... *they* give *you* the tools to be your own boss.

YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!!!


WILL FERRELL=THE BEST


xInfinity respect for you sir.

 

[gordonr24]

Man...I'm just gettin here, fill me in please.

Agreement reached according to Baby Vol

 

[Volstylexx]

Ok, don't kill me, but why are you all so excited over a paper reporting a rumor of an offer being made?

 

[Orange_Scooter]

Patrick Brown is a ****ing legend.

Knoxville and Memphis are left picking their noses.

Stephen Hargis. Don't mean to quibble but I'm sure Patrick would want Stephen to get the credit.

 

[Virgil Cain]

Man I love coaching searches

 

[UTodd01]

Man...I'm just gettin here, fill me in please.

Knoxville media just got their **** scooped by Chattanooga TFP.

My friend said KNS is scattering like cock roaches. She's in the middle of it.

You asked earlier what I thought sorry trying to figure this out.. I don't think we are but honestly, I know this has been said but its how I've felt, this thing has been FUBAR from the beginning

No SEC rules broken. Tommorrow will be announved we got our man but cannot say who. Golden Gundy Gruden speculation. Thanks to Chatt we all know.Knox and Memphis media snubbed. Talk will dominate SECCG weekend. Announced late Monday.

I will bump the OJGMNFWABL thread. MNF gets all time MNF ratings high. Everybody North of the TN border wins.

 

[TechnoVol]

Stephen Hargis wrote the piece. Patrick is the oen that posted it for TFP

Yes, but the article doesn't conclude a deal has been struck. What am I missing here? I want to BELIEVE!! :rock:

 

[g8terh8ter_eric]

Looks like a lot of people in this thread did some premature fapping, before the news started breaking.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

I laughed way harder at this than I should have.

 

[zjcvols]

Do you believe now??

The TFP is a fine paper organization. I don't believe this is BS.

If the hold up, the only hold up, is money...then yes I believe.

I'm not 100%, but this is the best I've felt about it.

 

[VolNExile]

OK, so I want him here, BUT:

If the holdup is not having enough money to get the assistants he wants, then how about he * cough cough * gives up a little of his salary to fatten up the rest of it? I mean, for God's sake, $5 million? $6 million? what the hell is the difference??

And I don't know if it's in play this time around, but apparently last time, there was this thing about how we would have to give his brother a job, and if/when Jon left for the NFL, his bro would take his place. I mean, what?? If his brother can't carry his own weight and get his own job, why would we have to buy into that?

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have CJG here for any number of reasons, but there are some things that I'm choking on a bit. Deal making involves give and take on both sides, and I'd like to see a bit of give on his side for once. I'm getting increasingly uneasy at this whole bend over and cough bit.

IMO JMO FWIW SIAP YMMV

 

[SMU Vol]

Doubt it would be announced Monday. Gruden is doing MNF game in Washington that night.

 

[Volnbeers]

in.

 

[crankuptheVOLume]

This is happening exactly the way the OG's said from the beginning! It's almost scary.

 

[GreatWhiteNorth]

In the infamous words of Joe Biden....

"This is a big effing deal"

 

[Jake]

Never mind...I backtracked and got semi-caught up!!

Damn good stuff!!
