Like mayo, but love it on a tomatoe sandwhich.

Love ranch.

Who the hell eats miracle whip? Gross

Can't stand blue cheese.

I love fried okra, if it's fresh and cooked right it has a lot of flavor. Has to be crunchy.

Another weird thing I do is I add walnuts to my fried potatoes. I like my potatoes thin and crispy, with sliced onions and walnuts cooked in. Heaven on earth.

So twitter, VN, and every rumor rolled up.

Butch and Currie have agreed to a reduce buyout if Currie let's Butch go before the AL game. Helps Butch's career by not completely killing off an opportunity to coach again.

Gruden and Currie met today and an offer is coming.

Patterson doesn't seem interested.

Scott is gone, Hoke is interim, Gillespie is OC

Am I missing anything....oh ya, and Vol Navy was dispatched to help evacuees from Knoxville due to the dumpster fire that turned into a wildfire.

Not a bad summary of the rumors, except the rumor about Patterson was that we were going after him to the tune of $5-6 mill. Which some sharp-eyed poster noted was about what Patterson currently makes at TCU. :)

Some rumors are better than others, whattayagonnado?

Obviously something is going on behind the scenes, as Tony B has alluded to. No other reason for BJ to negotiate the buyout. With that said, if all that is true, Grudens visit this weekend and being very public about it is no coincidence.

Patterson is a Texas guy, has built TCU, I see no way he leaves for UT.

Actually, Gruden's visit this weekend WAS coincidence, planned some time ago. Not to say the parties involved didn't take advantage of it though. :)

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?

Kind of weird that he's wearing a black shirt, no branding of any kind. Also no mention on tv during the game he was there. Butch is out tomorrow or Monday morning, Gruden leaves Nashville Monday night for Knoxville to address his new team. Let's ride!

Yeah, but he almost went out of his way to be out in public. Took all kinds of pictures with fans, knowing they would be posted on social media.

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 $$$.

Why do you think Patterson would be a tougher pull than one of , if not the highest paid employee of ESPN?
