TFP is reporting Gruden has an offer but staff a hang up

The meetings with other coaches are formailities. We are required to interview 3 coaches, with 1 being a minority. Gundy is a decent option, but prob isn't leaving OK St., unless it's for big bucks. I don't see us paying Gundy 4 million or more per season.

Charlie Strong is the minority interview. Solid coach, but not a realistic option for what we are looking for, IMO.

Actually, you're thinking about the NFL and there's no Rooney rule in college.

If that is truly the reason we don't get Gruden, the fan base will run Hart back to obscurity.

This is on Hart now. If he backs out there will be rioting

Clay Travis tweeted the TFP story was booster-driven and the "sub-text" was telling Hart to sign Gruden...

Or else.

Hart cannot screw this up. If he does I think it's 10x that evening with Kiffin.

If Hart don't get Gruden, he may want to get out of town for a few years. If he does get Gruden, they'l both be rock stars.

Big fan of P Brown and is the only guy I read cause he stays with the facts not including his opinion. Also with him being an alum I know he has UTs best interest in mind as well. So I want to believe if he is going to put this out there he's pretty confident about it. Now I just hope it doesn't backfire on him cause that would really suck.

Sorry can't remember who it was...but to the guy that said coaching in the NFL is no different...no proof of that at all. Especially when u go from all NFL experience down to CFB.

Gruden is a home-run hire in regard to instant revenue generating and buzz (recruiting, etc) but he is no guarantee in the win column or the future legendary coach at UT.

To the guy in IL that's new on here...log-off and go make love to ur GF. Seriously step back and walk away...seriously bro..

There is no guarantee except one, you have to pay to play in the big boy league!

I think the most important part of this article is that the source likely comes from Gruden's side. Which means he wants the job and is forcing Hart's hand to meet his demands and get it done. The Tennessee job will be long gone by the time any NFL jobs open so I don't buy that he is using Tennessee to drive up his price. However, if Hart really was in Oklahoma tonight maybe he has moved on from Gruden.

If he has he damn well best keep on moving!

If staff pay is a hold up this should resolved soon

Wasn't yesterday's "problem" too much control and today it's money?

I smell something fishy....or maybe that's smoke lol
