Oh - and I also like Gundy b/c of his 'I'm a man' speech. While it is still hilarious to watch - I think it was the best media speech in the last decade. He clearly went a little overboard, but I'd work my ass off for someone who would stand up for me/my teammates like that.

I would pay money to see him go off on ole Jimmy H like that.

Good, looking forward to a relaxing day after the last week. Just ready for then to make a hire and end all this hoopla lol.

Nothing says relaxing more than some cold beer and fishing. About 20 years ago at this time of year I was out on Norris Lake catching 15 to 20 lb stripers off Doll Flies in the breaks. That kind of stuff will make you forget about a long week of work.

WOW. Jeff friggin fisher is coachin the flippin rams. He has zero ties to UT. Gundy ain't leavin okst., his alma. OMG strong

Friend said Gundy not leaving OSU and that he was likely in it for a raise.

I mentioned Jeff Fisher as the Rams coach. He just shrugged his shoulders and said that was what he was told.

In retrospect, Fisher had coached the Titans. Maybe he wants to get back to Tennessee. Who can blame him?

Personally, I am still holding out hope for Gruden.

TIFWIW, but I was told by a friend yesterday that 3 names were being thrown around: Strong, Gundy, and Jeff Fisher. That's right, Jeff Fisher. I started to post this last night, but I figured this friend was somewhat mistaken and had meant Jimbo Fisher. After reading this, maybe not.

This friend works for one of the major recruiting services. He does not have inside info at UT. He received the info from a colleague who has a better grasp of the UT program than he does. His receipt of the info was on Thursday.

I am just passing on the info, so don't shoot the messenger.

If there is some sort of major SABAN/URBAN thing going on, and Gruden can't announce until after MNF or whatever then we don't need to whip ourselves into a frenzy again. I'm not going to get disappointed, cause even if he is negotiating, he is notorious at leaving teams at the altar.

My mind is open to some other coaches.

As I said, I did not post the info last night as I figured he must have meant Jimbo. But given Babyvol's info regarding Fisher and it not being Jimbo, I posted what I was told.

Not saying the info is correct. Just sharing.

Momma says it is time for me to go play golf. See ya. :)

If im correct, this is part of the.smokescreen. there is obviously mass confusion on who is being interviewed and who is not. To me what makes since is gruden is a done deal basically. I think haslams are smokescreening harts ass. They have there man there just having hart go on his interviews because he was being a baby and wanted that. When he returns with his candidates haslams tell him to.shove it up his ass cause he pissed off gruden and them. Then they tell him to hit the.door.

Because I still wish it will happen, but seeing now that the OG's have all but left town it's almost laughable to see other people try to come and take there place and start the rumors again. Flame away if you must. Burn it down!

This may be true but BabyVol on TOS is still Adamant about this. BabyVol, in my time lurking before posting anywhere, has proven to be solid as they come.

I refuse to let myself be 100% Gruden, but I'm not counting him out until he's not on the podium...Especially in a world where Nick Saban and Urban Meyer Exist.

I know one thing I'd bet my pay check on and thats Jimbo want coach Tennessee. I've always felt and watched the AD's reactions to know it will be Strong.

Did you go to the boat parade last night down at Concord Marina?

Nah my big boat is winterized, didn't even know about it to be honest. Watched a couple of our coaching candidates in action. Been pretty cool seeing the names "most agree" are being considered all in action within a 3 day period.
