Official Jon Gruden Thread XVII

[Sara Clark]

We’re agreeing on the point that competitive nature would want the challenge of bringing championships to Tennessee.

My point is that as a mature man in his 50’s who is already worth millions and is currently sitting on a known golden egg, do you risk that?

To be clear, I REALLY hope he does. But from a strict business/finance/future perspective, I have my doubts.

Your doubts have no place on this thread, kindly post them elsewhere.

For those of us not in Tennessee, what time does the coaches show normally air? I want to start celebrating!

...soon

Tape the bottom of the boxes well. They try to open when loaded heavy.
Soon!

Cross tape as well. Gives bottom of box added stability and strength.

I would possibly agree if it hasn't come straight from the horse's mouth that he's got the itch to coach again. It would make sense to some but I think he's getting restless and wants to coach again. It may not be on Rocky Top but I think he's coaching somewhere soon.

I will need live updates on the Butch Jones show, if it doesn’t air. We can start celebrating.

It should be a Butch Jones No Show. This is like a train wreck. You know it gonna end bad but we keep watching and wanting to get fed more and more.

The show is filmed after the game. Dooley filmed it even after he was told he wouldn’t be retained.

 

[5FingerVolPunch]

Plus it's getting to the point of now or never if he wants to get back into coaching. He's still young enough now but it really wouldn't make sense in his 60s.

volfaniva has some interesting stuff regarding today in which he gathered from TOS...something about butch has told family hes not sure he will be coach of tennessee on monday and that he could meet with currie this morning

If it is who I am 99.9% sure it is... Only trust screen shots. Anything else will be flights of autistic fantasy.


Edit: 100% sure now. Take everything they say with a grain of Saltville.

Illated94 has deactivated his twitter page again. He tweeted something about the announcement being leaked late last night or early a m. I hate this waiting.

Someone please fill me in on who this Illated person is...

 

[Silky_Johnson]

Anyone else's see that yacht yesterday named Spider 2 Y Banana?

Soon?

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

What is a realistic offer to get the Grude away from the dumpster fire at ESPN? 8 mil/year? A couple Hooters thrown in? Get the resident contractors to build him a mansion?

$9 mil just to be sure..$10 mil to prove a point 😃

 

[UTKalum23]

Someone who has posted inside information, that has later proven to be true.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Yes, it is. Butch speaking of resiliency at this very moment.

I'm really starting to hate him

I have no idea why that would be pertinent here, but thank you for the update.

It wasn't from 247 it was from volquest

 

[FranklinVFL]

Yup. Patterson would ironically be the tougher pull and he ain’t leaving TCU. We would most likely have to go north of $7M and you can get a bigger name for that $$$.

I agree with all this except one. Patterson is a bigger name and would be a huge splash hire. There are not that many people above him in name and coaching recognition.
