Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

JMO but I think Mullen's name has been out there because Jimmy Sexton had it put out there. I'm not convinced he's ever been in serious consideration. Again, JMO

Gruden to the hill. GBO

I agree, because as soon as Kelly went to interview with UCLA, you started hearing little whispers of Mullen being on Florida's list. When no one really thinks thats going to happen. Mrs. M wouldn't allow that!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

I agree. But with so many doubters it helps calm the people.

Lulz. I disagree.

 

[Sara Clark]

AV, MIT, Bubba, DTO, Boro, Exile have all said done deal, you either believe or not. Other people have opinions but have not had much corroboration.
Hoping everyone has a Great Thanksgiving!

Sorry, I don't recall DTO or AV saying the deal "is done."
With that being said, I do believe it's done!

 

[wildorange]

Lots of folks chasing old hat misdirection SMOKESCREENEY news. I really don't understand but have at it. I am headed to eat some Turkey, SOON!!!!!! GRUDEN IS GOING TO BE THE NEXT COACH OF THE VOLS!!!!!!!

 

[DownTheField]

This is the confirmation I was referring to, not the photo.

Also, by threaten, I don’t mean with a baseball bat or anything. I am just saying something like calling in favors to cover it up.

ah, thanks for clarifying

i actually did not know about that tweet...but it does nothing for me

AV, Boro, DTO have never said done deal.

@BigVolFan24 and Dave Hooker making a bet about Gruden on twitter. Hope the smug Hooker loses his shirt. 😁

some? ha!

this thread exists to stretch the very limits of credulity

Have you seen the other threads out there ? Lol

Everyone loves a good conspiracy. We need something to discuss while we wait on the announcement.

 

[Smokey'sHandler]

So the whole production team for Espn is on the smokescreen? Guys I want Gruden to be the next coach as bad as anyone, but some of things are just getting out of hand.

All I’m saying is don’t rule it out. There’s been plenty of things in this process that have been “confirmed” then debunked. We also need to remember that it was “confirmed” by several local and national media members that Gruden was going to be in town for the game so it shouldn’t surprise us that some sightings of him have popped up.

I will say I have no idea if that is Calhouns. Their bbq is horrible and have no idea why anyone woukd be there besides a beer.

Your correct Sara, Nor did Boro either. None of them have ever said the deal is done. I think they are all confident and probably have info to back up their optimism. But DTO,AV, nor Boro have ever said Gruden is 100% done. Not this go around. A few others that I think are very legit and have credible info have implied that they are sure it's done. Having said all that, I am very confident and optimistic that GRUDEN IS THE NEXT COACH of the TENNESSEE VOLUNTEERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That’s discouraging. Clearly not a reliable source.

Happy turkey hole day vol fans.

Agreed on the BBQ.

I think it’s really, likely insanely unlikely, that these guys were at Calhoun’s. It’s about as unlikely as the big wig meeting that happened at Olive Garden.

First off, why risk a public spectacle you’re eventually going to have to explain and/or to try to control information from every person who could’ve been in or around Calhoun’s at that time. That is a lot of people, employees, and bystanders.

Second, if you’re a VIP at UT with access to a skybox and want Calhoun’s, you’d get Calhoun’s in your skybox. There’s no reason to go there for the food. See also the point above.

It’s not impossible by the literal meaning of the word, but it is unlikely by the literal meaning.

The counterpoints are all valid, and make it way more likely it’s not true. But a good conspiracy theory is fun to think about, and there are enough nuggets to at least put together a counter argument (no matter how weak).
