There is a small contingent with the same belief. The Grudenites don't like us. But they will like you even less with that UGA next to your name. All reason is lost with them, and all outlandish, incredulous rumors are fact as long as it makes them feel better.
I've seen some state unequivocally that, with the Gruden hire, UT would win the SEC within 3 seasons. This is where a fanbase causes trouble for the program with unreasonable claims and expectations. Gruden has never HC'd a down of college football. Some pro success doesn't automatically translate. Just ask Bill Walsh, Al Groh, Jerry Glanville, Bill Callahan, et al. He might come to UT and he might be a great CHC. But then again he might not. He has a .540 HC'ing lifetime win %, and was fired from his most previous job after posting 4-12, 9-7, 9-7 seasons. That's not exactly proven, IHMO.
