Official Jon Gruden Thread XVII

[volfan1631]

I don’t doubt there are people at Tennessee who would love Gruden. I’m skeptical that Haslam would be on board and doubt Gruden would take the job at this point.

Hopefully the haslams are to busy with the browns right now

 

[knucklehead_vol]

If we get Gruden, will Knoxville bring back Boomsday?

There is no more boomsday?

They're doing such a great job there I hope they don't have time to meddle with UT.

 

[UTVolinExile]

I got a feeling Gruden will make us the new Alabama. We'll win at least 3 nattys.

Have you come to accept that Kelly isn't coming here?

 

[volfan1631]

With Gruden it will be Boom time every Saturday

SOON

I wandered outside of the Gruden thread ... man people are hostile!
I don't need a safespace or anything, but man the Gruden thread feels like home.

It's amazing to me that there are people on this site, that (if we land Gruden), want him to fail, just so they can say, "I told you so." At least that's how it seems.

Either he's the next coach at UT or he ain't, but to hope he fails is childish to me.

Anywho, I sure do hope Gruden is our next coach.

I have never wanted a coach to fail at UT. I did not like dookey as coach at all. I was hopefull jones could do good here. I think he is a good guy but just over his head here in the sec. i do wish him well wherever he ends up

Well that'll do d4h just jinxed the whole damn thing

 

[Magic8Vol]

There goes another 4 hour Grud-on.

If a Grud-on lasts for more than 4hrs you may need to contact Vol Doc for help.

I've had a Grud-on since 2010.

And then got fired two years later because he caught lightning in a bottle with another coach's players.

Wrong.

 

[5FingerVolPunch]

Swain say anything relevant to this here discussion on Finebaum?

Except he didn't. He was fired 6 years later after a second consecutive 9 and 7 season.

Also, he played the team that he built, the Oakland Raiders, in the Super Bowl in 2002. So... there's that too.

If Gruden were to coach at Tennessee, I wonder if his FFCA (Fired Football Coaches of America) work would cause problems.

FFCA – Giving Back to The Game We All Love: Football

 

[VolArmy74]

I know some have said you can’t fire/hire based on the recruiting class coming in but what about the kids on the team now?? I’m 40 and a child of the 90’s so consider me spoiled but does anyone older than me remember a team lacking the leadership, identity and fight of this team? I know Dooleys last team quit but was the locker room as bad as this one?

Daniel Hood recently said that out of 100 people in the locker room, 99 of them were feeling pretty great the day Dave Hart came in and told them Dooley was fired.

I'd guess that similar will happen when Butch if finally done.

Barb must have been in the locker room when it happened.

No.

I know what you mean. Crazy ain't it?

 

[kayakonthefly]

Thanks

Sidenote, Paul said we should bring back Kiffin, because he wants to be the guy that takes down Saban. I laughed. Hard.

Edit: Sooooon

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Swain say anything relevant to this here discussion on Finebaum?

No but Finebaum just said he'd like to see Kiffin back at UT. Pawl=Trawl

 

[VolArmy74]

While I love the Grumors, a part of JAV's post disturbs me. It's the part regarding everyone wouldn't be on board with a Chip Kelly hire. If true, this tells me there is still an unacceptable level of meddling going on from certain parties and that Currie is still hanstrung to some extent. So it's Gruden or mid-major redux....

Fortunately....Soon.
