Official Jon Gruden Thread XVII

[knucklehead_vol]

So just caught the tail end of something on 1180. From what I caught, which wasn't much, they said something about the admin releasing a statement that UT cannot afford to buy Butch and staff out at this time and that's why he won't be fired. Has anyone heard this?

I hope I either misheard or I missed additional info prior to the last statement.

Not true. Now will he be fired or has he resigned already? We'll soon know.

That seems like that would be an extremely odd statement to release.

“We really want to fire our coach but we can’t afford it.”

At this point, it will cost them more to keep him than it will to fire him and pay his buyout.

No administration would ever release a statement saying that, even if it were true.

 

[MemphisVol77]

I'm still at 15.

If you can get us Gruden I'll subscribe.

If I was on Twitter, you'd have 16 now.

Bad when your sitting in church checking on this thread!

Exactly, they would release one stating the coach has our full support, heading in the right direction, blah blah blah.

We need some kind of text notification system for volnation that alerts us when a new Grumor has been added to this thread. That would rock.

I would potentially pay for that service.

Someone on here probably knows him or has a class with him.


***First, absolutely NO STALKING HIM, REPEAT, NO STALKING HIM.

However, I think it would be perfectly acceptable to make him a very happy guy on our campus. Everybody could use more friends.

Does he like blondes or brunettes? Would it be so bad for some young ladies to invite him out for a Smoothie.

Does he need a free tutor or someone to do (er, I mean N.Carolina style) ....help him with his papers and tests?

Does Rice or Beatty or any of the Other Knox car dealerships need someone to come turn on their sprinkler system once a week in return for a car?

What does he like to drink? If under 21, Non alc, of course.
All the sweet tea he can drink from Cumberland McD.

What about food?
Lifetime supply of steamed sandwiches from Gus.
Pizza from Big Ed’s? Burgers from Albert H.?

Free satellite TV from Vol alum CEO at Dish Network?

****The biggest Rule**** Nobody asks him about his Dad. Not if he thinks Dad is interested in returning to coaching or has been contacted. Nothing about Dad.
This is all about making young Mr.Gruden think that UT and Knoxville are the greatest places on earth with the friendliest people on earth. I mean, who wouldn’t want to live here? :rock:k::dance2:

(Yes, 13, and others who hate everything that I write, this is a little blue fonty, out of the box, or stupid, silly, or whatever....but, you know, it’s not completely crazy :crazy.....just 90% crazy. And, remember I’m senile.

Have a Gruden! ...fellow Vols, and for those that think Jon is the pipiest of pipe dreams...Have a Kelly or a Frost, or a Brohm, or a Patterson, blah da da da di....dilly, dilly. soon.

just speculation at this point...perhaps monday at the soonest

 

[knucklehead_vol]

Monday. I am not suggesting anything will happen. If I could get someone else to make a confirmation, you know who you are, then I'll mention it. Otherwise plan on a normal one. But don't be surprised if news starts coming out today either.

yep^^^^

 

[SobeVol]

I found it odd that Gruden was sitting down in the stands with the crowd, instead of up in a box

Plausible deniability

 

[volfannbama]

So if i understand you correctly, dont stalk him.....but stalk him?

 

[FleeceItOut]

If you guys are depressed now. Just wait

 

[Vfl2407]

At least you were first and not 13.

For the 1% reading this nonsense and nodding their head in agreement, reminder, please leave John Gruden's family alone. Shame this even has to be said.

 

[RonJovi]

I have 22, but 7 of them are pornbots. I keep em around just to pad the stats.

 

[SpringBokVol]

There will be a press conference tomorrow.

As of right now it will be the standard game press conference led by Butch.
