Official Jon Gruden Thread XLIX

[Hawkpilot]

True statement, but feel obligated to the Gruden thread. Too many hours spent in here.

I greatly appreciate it

 

[UTSuave’]

Has anyone even taken the time to notice, that while the New York stuff was happening, ALOT of people werent active in this thread who otherwise had been. Now that its the next day some are back.

I mean I know Im a nobody that anyone listens to (until They piss me off) but that bears noticing.

Very noticeable...and the fact Atlanta_Vol hasn't been back is reassuring to because he is an honest guy and if he told us he would come back to tell us it isn't gruden,he would have that's just the type of guy he is man.

 

[VFLnSFD]

just now.

Nothing.

 

[mrmax86]

asdfjkl;

Fyp

 

[crparker21]

Which his legacy as an AD gets cemented as either a success early on or as a failure with this hire.

He has one shot at getting this right.

I'm not sure he will be in the position long enough to have a legacy.

 

[Hawkpilot]

My biggest fear about Fulmer taking over the reigns of AD look like they are being realized.

I know he loves Tennessee, but I've always felt like he would struggle hiring someone that could potentially overshadow his legacy. If Pruitt is the hire, I'll feel even more sure of it.

Roll Damn Vols.

You are the 3rd person I have heard say that. Ugh

Pruitt/Tee > Gruden

 

[volfanhill]

Probably monte hall from let’s make a deal. He’s dead.

Lol

Thats it. His legacy is now. If he messes this up, no one will care what history did. People dont study history anymore, this is the age of right now, like immediately.

 

[ShowMeThemTD's]

No. If I’ve ever said that it was in response to someone purposefully trying to get a rise out of someone else by trolling. And sorry to disappoint you, but I’m not leaving.

Kettle calling the pot black right there

 

[OGSmokey]

My two co-workers (both bammers) asked me what I was going to do with my life after we hire a coach because I spend “hours” on this thread everyday. Lol. I think they even feel bad for me at this point

 

[mrmax86]

Oh my god.

 

[VolzMan53]

It's people like you that cause others not to post info. I've said many times believe what you want. I have been pro-gruden the whole time. No reason for insults.

not too good in apologizing when he's wrong about something either, of well, it's been a long 2 months !!

Pruitt/Tee > Gruden

So it takes two coaches to make up for One Gruden

 

[Grudenator]

I think if anything this sh*tshow has shown that the fans DO have a say so and if we accept this mediocrity and continue to fund it then its what we will get and continue to be.

No other fan base does this. Do you think Tallahassee would not be on fire if they trotted Pruitt out as a head coach? What about UF? You think if Saban said I quit they would be happy with Pruitt? UGA? Hell if Richt doesn't get fired then Pruitt would have.

Yes, we had a say so in not getting a guy involved with child rape hired. But we have no say so in WHO gets hired.

Probably a poor example since he coached there during their Natty and many did want him back.

But apparently he went full Joey Freshwater on the local residents, despite being engaged.

But point understood, just funny you chose Tallahassee of all schools.

I think if Fulmer blows this hire, the failure will overshadow his successes as coach.

 

[Catbone]

Holy **** it IS Gruden 👀

 

[Stogie Vol]

Nothing.

and again from a different one.

 

[Hawkpilot]

Very noticeable...and the fact Atlanta_Vol hasn't been back is reassuring to because he is an honest guy and if he told us he would come back to tell us it isn't gruden,he would have that's just the type of guy he is man.

He's not coming back until there is a hire..doesn't matter the name IMO

 

[UTSuave’]

What?

Very good point.

 

[Squints]

Pruitt/Tee > Gruden

Bath salts are bad.

 

['Boro-vol]

Can you tell us what you've heard?

Same stuff you've heard. Gruden said no. Don't know why, but I get the impression it was on us.

Now we'll likely make the underwhelming hire of a Bama coordinator to fulfill our dreams of competing for SEC Championships.

Dress him up in Orange and trot him out...the sheep will love it. Roll Vols Roll!

 

[mrmax86]

What?
