Official Jon Gruden Thread XIII

[MillerLite]

With four posts, this must be the truth.

Oh, so I have to have at least 14 to be credible? *********.

 

[BigOrangeD]

So is the Gruden thing over now? Do we need to start focusing on other options?

What say ye?

Maybe

The day we envy Vandy for their coach, we have indeed hit rock bottom. NO THANKS.

1-7 in the SEC, three straight losing seasons. What doesn't suggest rock bottom?

And considering I was at my desk at a GOP political committee the night of the election believe me, I never thought anything could be worse.... This is.

So you thinking Romney for HC then?

1. Chill out
2. We are still getting him from what I was just told
3. Stoops isn't stepping down today. He has a game tomorrow.
4. Anything coming out of Knoxville is smokescreen. Do not listen to anything Hubbs or Hyams says regarding Gruden.
5. Still thinking this finally goes down next week.

Im still in

 

[Face]

Coming from a guy with only 60.

I also did not make a troll statement my first post

I still don't get why we have to keep reminding these people to do this.

...how many times have those clowns been wrong in the past 48 hours alone much less the past few years?

 

[pattiycake]

How many likes do we get? Anyone know?

We get 50 per day. Each one that you use returns in 24 hours. I always run out!

[BigOrangeD]

no clue, I was wondering the same, I run out every few days...

Me too

I am going to personally kick every Knoxville sports writer in the nuts when this is over.

I think I've come to hate each and every one of them.

:lolabove:

Haha no I was on the House side so I still at least want a winner. Bring over the Speaker, he will take it as long as he is allowed to smoke a pack during the game.

If this was an "official" report from the Athletic Department, why be unnamed? This all stinks

Not only unnamed but not authorized to speak to the media per the Hubbs report.

 

[Mac Boles]

a g-5 airplane??

I think he meant G-V. Would you rather him call it a C-37A? As for the original post I'm not buying it.

I'll lone you some steel toed boots.

 

[CourtJester]

Why be anonymous? What's the point?

Because they aren't going to open Pandora's box by saying anything 100% official about a candidate during the search process. Once they do that it sets a precedent, and the media and public would expect it for every other candidate that hits the top of the rumor mill and the feeding frenzy and speculation would be even worse. They said a few days ago they would have no official comment on the search until it was over. SOP in this situation.

 

[Ragdoll]

I still BELIEVE!!!!!!Just waiting on announcement..NO sources..just believing

 

[rkvdg]

So you thinking Romney for HC then?

no no no , but I would take him as a ad in a hart beat

3. Negotiations could still be ongoing.

4. We offered everything Gruden asked for and be still said no.

5. Gruden is asking for too much, and Dave Hart made the difficult decision to not meet the terms.

Listen, if Dave Hart thinks the money is too much, I trust him. He's is a very intelligent man and sometimes the right choice is the hardest choice. I'd rather trust his opinion than some ransoms on a message board who probably can't balance their own dang checkbook (myself included).

If you want my opinion, I think things are still moving. If JG is not our next head coach, I believe it was because of his choice, not ours.

If #4 is true, then #5 is NOT true. Bad logic bud. Calling bs here. Sounds like you need to get your facts straight. Nice try.

They are asking $80 dollars for basketball tickets this is crap. Finally get a chance to go to a Tennesse sporting event in D.C. and they want me to shell out close to $200 dollars between two tickets and concessions.

Crazy. That Obama Care tax is kickin' in I guess.

 

[VFLBerg]

I have a lot doubt that Strong is interviewing for a job one day before his team has a game. If he was talking to UT it would be next week. He has better things to do right now.

The game was last night.

 

[VolNExile]

How many likes do we get? Anyone know?

I'm pretty sure it's 50/ day, midnight to midnight.

Confusing when I'm in Pacific time zone and I go into a like frenzy after 9 pm, and the next morning, I'm out of likes.

Official non-insider disclaimer: the 50/day figure didn't come from the AD or a booster. Just an educated guess + vague memories of this being posted by a mod once.


eta: Well, hell, all my likes just came back. So scratch the midnight to midnight thing. Baffling. :crazy:

I don't think one can consider Hyams or Hubbs a writer or journalist at this point.

They are simply an extension of the AD.

I am hanging on to a thread of hope that my information was technically true last night, but subject to change. My concerns have nothing to do with media reports. Hope my sources were jumping the gun, or further away from the process now that things are near the end. I just cant figure any of this right now.
