Y'all, get off the Kodak kick.

I legitimately made up that Hex number (941A) out of thin air. In going back several pages to the original post, the stream ironically included a 94A1.

Any chance this has to do with the bitcoin post he had?

Possibly. it sounds to me like Bubba is sharing some information he has with someone who is skeptical of his identity.

Now it could be unrelated to our coaching search, but follow this logic. Bubba knows the white whale is harpooned. Bubba is talking to a reporter (Rucker, Hubbs, etc) sharing this information. The reporter is, naturally, skeptical. Bubba says “believe me, I am ___________.” Reporter says “prove it.” Apparently PGP can be used for identity verification, but I’m not familiar with how that process works.

We are all Vols. This area should not be just for fanatics, of which I am certainly one. Post lead in "If not Grude". We all want Jon but snipping at a fellow Vol sucks. What I want out of a Jon Gruden site is some substantiated facts, not jokes, not pipe dreams, not BS. If it's there post it, if not, leave it alone so we don't have to read through hundreds of post to locate something of substance.

I read a story quoting someone close to the AD at Florida that they regretted not making an official offer before he talked to UCLA. He may be leveraging an offer from UCLA to get more from Florida.

That makes sense if so. Florida crapped the bed if that’s true. I hope it bites them in the butt and they end up with Bill McGooglevich.

He did not say that. Someone took the Tolkien script which says “Gruden to the Hill Soon” roughly and said read it backwards. With a great stretch you could make it say Tune in to VN tomorrow.

No. He said it, I saw a video of it. He was sitting next to Gruden while he was signing the contract.

No...but I’ve been trying to figure out how a Sunday announcement would fit in with Gruden’s MNF schedule.

Well, he's obviously not going to finish the season presuming what we all know to be true, so if he is announced Sunday he no longer works for ESPN and wouldn't do Monday's game in B'more.

This is AWESOME! I just don't think that this is a hexadecimal. He has the word "Fingerprint" in front of the code. It is a PGP Fingerprint Key. Reporters use them to verify their identity.

Here is his ID key in MD5:

If we could intercept his communication you could use this key to present yourself as MIT Beave.

There might be something to the Sunday grumor. I just heard that preparations are underway for a big announcement on Sunday. And, reportedly, the magnitude of these particular preparations far exceeds those of any previous coaching hires. No candidate was named, but common sense says you don’t set out your best china for just anyone. So, it must be a toss-up between Gruden and Belichick.

Hey! A fellow Tarrant county Vol fan! I hope you’re right and we get the good news soooon. I will be in Nashville on Sunday but when I get back to Texas we should plan a celebration with all other DFW VFLs.

If not Grude, Scott Frost looks the part. Parents were both coaches. Impressive college career. Played under coaching greats, young (42), energetic and most importantly TOUGH. Looks the part:

Frost was coached by Stanford’s Bill Walsh, Nebraska’s Tom Osborne, the New York Jets’ Bill Parcells and Bill Belichick, and Jon Gruden. He broke into the coaching ranks as a graduate assistant at his alma mater in 2002 before filling the same role at Kansas State in 2006.

Frost took a position at Northern Iowa in 2007 as linebackers coach before being elevated as the Panthers’ co-defensive coordinator one year later. His defense finished the 2008 season tied for third in the Football Championship Subdivision in takeaways (40) and ninth in the country in scoring defense (17.7 ppg). With a 12–3 record, they also led the Missouri Valley Football Conference in rushing defense (107.1 avg.) and scoring defense.[8]

He joined the Oregon coaching staff as its wide receivers coach on January 26, 2009. Working under head coach Chip Kelly and offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich, Frost was instrumental in instituting a toughness among his receivers that enhanced their ability as downfield blockers, which contributed to the success of the Ducks’ running game. During his four seasons at Oregon as wide receivers coach, the Ducks reached four straight BCS bowls and three of his departed wide receivers during his Oregon tenure have been invited into NFL camps.

After the departure of Kelly, the University of Oregon promoted Helfrich to head coach and Frost was later officially announced as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach on January 31, 2013.[9] In 2014, Frost was a finalist for the Broyles Award, given annually to the nation's top college football assistant coach.

On December 1, 2015, Frost was hired as the head football coach at the University of Central Florida.[10] Frost replaced long time UCF head coach George O'Leary and interim head coach Danny Barrett, who took over the Knights when O'Leary resigned following an 0-8 start.

This may be a ridiculous notion, but could it be possible for our HC to be Gruden and Frost to be a Coordinator for him and our Head Coach in waiting? I realize he already is a HC, but with his ties to Currie and Gruden I wondered. Or does Tuesday seem to affirm the idea of Tee definitely being in that position? Anyway, just wondered about that. I’m sure Gruden wants a star quality staff if he’s going to take this job. :)

How would it have to do with MIT?

Y'all know exponentially more about this than I do.

If Gruden had been signed it would have been announced right after Butch was fired.

If Gruden wasn’t signed he and or the Admin. Would have said as much after butch was fired so we wouldn’t have such a blow up from the fan base and “ insert coaches name here “ wouldn’t have such a big name to live up to before he was announced . See how that works ?
