Official Jon Gruden Thread XLIX

[Hawkpilot]

Other than the beat down of ND, that Miami team did not defeat a good team. They weren't a top 10 team much less top 4. I like Richt though.

How do you feel about a mystery candidate?

 

[tennvols77]

I didn’t realize I couldn’t express my opinion as well. I’ve been in here since the beginning, as was the case in 2012 on a different screen name. So no one is allowed to argue for a certain candidate other than Gruden in here? That’s new if so.

I welcome all opinions and talks. But, you have to understand it's like you are a white eye wondering onto Indian lands after a diphtheria, influenza, malaria, measles, scarlet fever, typhoid, typhus, tuberculosis, and pertussis (whooping cough) outbreak.

It just is bad timing around here, lot of uneasiness and emotions flying.

I feel like he's just shilling for Pruitt... Saying "it's not who we wanted, but everything will be fine"

Or....he’s Phil Fulmer.

 

[UTSuave’]

Pruitt turned us down 🙄🤦🏽

Edit:fake twitter. I checked it out...continue 😁👉🏽

It does seem a tad excessive, based on the information that normally comes out during coaching searches. Maybe they're trying to do their due diligence about something, or maybe they had an initial meeting with somebody else in the department and the second meeting was to meet with Fulmer? I don't know.

It seems overly excessive. I’d think after all this we would have our announcement, but no. It seems odd.

Out of the SEC teams changing coaches, is it safe to say we may have the most underwhelming hire?

Or the most astounding and dynamic. Still to early to tell.

 

[Hawkpilot]

mays will be in orange...

Just not clemson orange.

Staying on board til the end!

'Sup Fish!! How's your world?

I riding till the propeller falls off!!

Gruden till it ain't and it ain't ain't yet

Hope springs eternal...

Let's put it this way into optimistic terms. Fulmer knows what catapulted him into the position he currently holds. Furthermore, knows what this base desires, craves and is ready to riot for. His first PC was a clue when he talked about "the mistakes of the last nine years." I have thought heavily on this and what he meant. He has no love for Kiffin, knew Dooley was a mistake and bit his tongue where Jones was concerned.

Fulmer has UT at his heart and knows we bumbled about for nine years after his dismissal. He knows a name goes a long way in these realms and should know we are at a critical junction in UT's history. We can fade into obscurity like Colorado did 25 years ago and continue with mediocre after mediocre hire. Or he can get someone worthy of the Power T brand that causes us all to celebrate and give reason to continue coming back.

I choose to have faith AD Fulmer knows what he is doing and is ready to give the starving pack of wolves a truckload of steaks. He's not saying anything at the moment, which causes anxiety in our base and leaves us to our imagination to think horrible thoughts about who the next coach is. But, let's step back and remember who he is and realize he wants the same thing as we do.

I think he wants to be Barry Alvarez and control every detail down to the coordinators. No good coach will accept being micromanaged.

If you’re referencing then Wes Rucker tweet, that was from a fake account not the verified one.

Fake twitter handle. Troll started that.

Your e-wang is shrinking with each post.

if pruitt isn't the coach, it is not because he said no.

Huh, go figure........where you see this....never mind we'll have some other headline in a minute different than that.

How do you feel about a mystery candidate?

I did get some conflicting info late last night. It's a possibility but IMO it is still Pruitt.

 

[UTSuave’]

Fake twitter handle. Troll started that.

Nothing to see here😁👍🏽

 

[Vol423]

One fact that appears to be indisputable is that UT has the most incompetently run administration in the NCAA.

I get that. But it is upsetting that the moment you “don’t believe” and express that, your immediately vilified I’m here. Maybe it’s time I see myself out. I just figured all opinions were welcome, as has been the case as long as you weren’t insulting others.

Have you heard anything about gruden or has that ship sailed into the wind🤔 Do you believe in the mystery candidate deal

 

[iamadoc]

Why in God's green Earth would you WANT to come in to the Official Jon Gruden page and argue about a different coach.....???? You are most defiantly looking to start an argument by doing so. You do realize we are all VOLS, don't you? I guarantee you that us regulars were in here and not in the Mullen threads trying to argue with those people who supported him. You are just arguing for the simple fact of arguing....

now GTFO

We haven't had a good gtfo in a while. That probably felt good.

Crparker...when did you say that team meeting was?

Like I said white man, tough crowd around here right now. Stay for the fun the laughter and the tears and the hate and the venom and the whole f***** circus!

 

[TenUhSee]

Noticed that the latest troll opening is "I was/am for Gruden BUT..."

Gruden To The Hill

Really Soon!
