Official Jon Gruden Thread XXVI

Not open for further replies.
How are Tennessee’s lawyers NOT telling John Currie he is basically B.E.G.G.I.N.G for a damn lawsuit at the moment by holding onto Butch Jones.

Between Butch having half knocked out players out there taking snaps, allegation after allegation of player abuse, rape cover up..... every year it seems like his guy has a smoke storm of this type of crap.

Now the Davis resignation over hostil work environment.

Is John Currie the one with a traumatic brain injury?

Jesus.

I have been 100% on removal of Butch ever sense Georgia.... I am surprised he made it past Kentucky without an announcement .... Not surprised he is still here but I am about the lack of announcement after Kentucky

IMHO, the reason Currie is not announcing the Jones firing yet is he is giving him the decency of finding another job before being let go (hence the rumors of South Alabama and negotiated buyout).

We have no idea what is going on right now behind closed doors IMO.

What do you make of the fact that the same site (thereadoptional) broke these three stories in the last week?

1 Gruden offered $10 million per by TN
2 Butch buyout worked out so he can land elsewhere
3 Brett Kendrick concussion

What’s at play here? Who is behind this and who benefits?

If you guys are ever feeling down, just listen to the UGA radio call of last year's hail mary.

You're welcome.

It is exquisite, isn't it? I listen to it about once a week.

If you're really quiet and still, you can actually hear Scott Howard's heart break.

Why would the booster side want to wreck their own deal? And why would the admin/ad want a potential lawsuit,bad press,and job losses?

Exactly.....I think this unfortunate thing for Kendrick landed in Currie's lap and if true, he has a chance to save a ton of money with the same end result he has wanted....just earlier. JMO

There is an obvious financial benefit to that, and it could be part of the renegotiated buyout. And IF a replacement is already in place the delay does not effect you adversely....unless your numbskull coach plays a kid with a concussion.

The Kendrick situation, if the coaches knew, was a wild card event.

Reputations on the line.

First one exposed: DocVol..."Butch will be fired following KY no matter if he wins or lose"

Next ones standing in line.

You: MaTaLa, you hungry, man?
Me: Nah, I"m good, thanks

6 hours later
Me:Man, I'm starving!
You: I knew you were lying

I can very well see where this could've been the plan, but losing to Kentucky and the whole Kendrick thing may have thrown a poop burger into the whole deal. Hence Currie's less than thrilled picture from the other night after the Kentucky game and the reported blow up yesterday.

Which is not a resume enhancer

If everyone would ignore them, they would go away. From a psychological perspective, they want attention and validation. If you give them that, they will stay around and bask in the light. If you ignore them, they will get tired and go away.
  • When they do this:

  • The appropriate response is this:

  • So they eventually do this:

Not calling you or anyone specific out, just a general note on the state of this thread. These threads would be half the length, much easier to follow, and a lot of civil if folks wouldn't 'feed the trolls', so to speak. It's an anonymous chatroom on the internet, so I don't expect anyone to listen tbh.

I know man. I don’t like to ignore people because I don’t mind discussion or disagreement. It’s just the finger pointing and calling people out that’s ridiculous. I hear ya. 👊

Really interesting Finebaum show right now. He and Vince Dooley talking about how athletic departments work and how Athletic Directors share information amongst themselves in hiring coaches and developing contracts.

They were definitely (without calling out names) talking about Butch and how the hell he has this enormous buyout without having the background of a highly qualified and quantified head coach.

Did he happen to mention the rather large his son stole from UT. What were his qualifications that allowed that $5 million dollar payout?
