Hey guys, I just realized something. Gruden always goes on Mike & Mike on Thursday mornings. Go back to that interview last week and listen. Why did he go on yesterday instead?

My percentage is going back up (based on absolutely nothing but desperation)

After watching this monstrosity for a few years, I am becoming convinced that Fulmer was right about there being some huge administration problems within the University that must be fixed. You might be right, football was taken for granted and the University stopped caring for it's cash cow. I am now left unconvinced that the problem lies solely on Fulmer's shoulders.

We seem to want to put a band aid on a sucking chest wound by creating this coaching carousel. Hire Fulmer back, let's fix these problems and move forward. I would take a Fulmer/Chavis team back on the sidelines over any (and I mean ANY) of the options being thrown around right now.

Let me couch this by saying that I was fully on board with the fire Fulmer train a few years ago. No longer, my friends, no longer.

what's up buddy?
 
from a football standpoint, (not basketball) would people agree that things starting falling apart when Dickey retired? Cant see him being pushed around by the likes of Cheek and others.
 
Yet another joke at our expense:

If I wasn't in Illinois and watching my two boys on my day off, I would be heading down to Knoxville in full inspector gadget mode trying to figure out if Gruden was in fact in the area. I would be handing out hundred dollar bills to anyone with legit info on his whereabouts. Then if I found him, I would scream like a little school girl, get back in my car and cry most of the way back to Illinois. Knowing good and well that the Gruden ship is almost docked. Watch out SEC we will be back and I will find humor in seeing you all cry like a schoolgirl, just as I did, knowing we are taking all your recruits. HAHAHAHA GBO!
 
N901PM LJ60 still at KTYS...Look at the history of this jet...it does'nt stay in one place for for than a couple of hours, then off to somewhere else...it's been here for 14 hours so far....not Gruden, LaMonte

This is actually a pretty solid speculative point. I wonder why he was on yesterday?

I'm still all IN - leaving to do a bit of work so I can put some Christmas presents under my tree (that I haven't even decorated yet...wonder why?). I watched Jimmy V speech a couple of nights ago - and I quote: “To me, there are three things we all should do every day. We should do this every day of our lives. Number one is laugh. You should laugh every day. Number two is think. You should spend some time in thought. And number three is, you should have your emotions moved to tears, could be happiness or joy. But think about it. If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that's a full day. That's a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you're going to have something special.”

I'd say that every day has been a heck of day for the past few weeks for us Grudenites!
 
Can someone explain the Grider-Gruden rumors floating around now? Is there any truth that Gruden contacted him to be on his staff?
 
I am 100% in agreement with this...if Gruden is not going to happen then I am all in with Fulmer...probably won't happen but I think that is the safest thing for our program right now...and Fulmer has enough clout to help get the administrative stuff turned around...to my understanding Fulmer did not burn bridges with the Big money guys

If it ain't Gruden, them I'm for FUlmer/Chavis. Let's fix this internal mess and let Phil retire the way he should have. I don't want no damn lame ass coach, just to say we have one.
