Have you watched John Mulaney’s Salt and Pepper dinner bit? Worth a watch on YouTube. You got to give them a bit of hope in the madness that the madness is over. 😂
I’m gonna check them out! I’m really just waiting for that one SEC Roll Call guy to post… I was really excited for it until we lost.

I don’t know what you’re talking about or what that is. I’m just trying to save our team. I’m putting the team on my back and bearing the burden most of us are afraid to. 😭😭😭😭
Brother you might be confused but this is a great thread I bookmarked it. It's been too long

I’ll bring sure to bring it back after the first loss of every season 😂. Is ChatGPT a dating app?
I typed "why coach heupel and gruden would be good as both being head coach at once for vols" for example of chat gpt and it writes for you as a robot.. it basically wrote your post in a different gpt format lol

Making Jon Gruden and Josh Heupel co-head coaches could bring unique strengths that would help a football program thrive:

1. Gruden's NFL experience: Gruden has a Super Bowl win under his belt and years of experience at the highest level of football. His deep knowledge of pro systems, player development, and leadership would be invaluable, especially in helping college players transition to the NFL.


2. Heupel's offensive expertise: Heupel is known for his fast-paced, high-scoring offenses. His innovative strategies have already made Tennessee a formidable offensive team in college football. Partnering with Gruden could balance that offensive ingenuity with Gruden's pro-level schemes, adding versatility and unpredictability to the game plan.


3. Recruiting boost: With Gruden's name recognition and Heupel's success in college football, they could form a recruiting powerhouse. Gruden’s NFL connections might attract recruits aspiring to reach the NFL, while Heupel’s reputation for maximizing offensive talent could appeal to skill players.


4. Complementary leadership styles: Heupel is seen as a player’s coach with a more modern, approachable demeanor, while Gruden is known for his fiery intensity. This balance could create a dynamic culture where players are pushed to perform at their best, while also feeling supported.



By sharing head coaching responsibilities, Gruden could focus on game management, defense, and mentoring quarterbacks, while Heupel runs the offense and handles day-to-day team operations. Together, their combined expertise could elevate a program's competitiveness at both the college and professional levels.

Here's why adding Jon Gruden as a co-head coach alongside Josh Heupel could be a groundbreaking move for the Tennessee Vols.. let me know what you guys think….

1. Combining Elite Experience with Innovation

  • Gruden’s NFL Pedigree: Jon Gruden is a Super Bowl-winning coach with decades of NFL experience. He has an extensive knowledge of pro-style offenses and knows how to develop players for the next level. Pairing him with Heupel’s innovative, fast-paced college offense would create a dynamic coaching duo that merges professional-level strategy with cutting-edge college tactics.
  • Heupel’s Offensive Genius: Josh Heupel is known for his explosive offensive schemes, but sometimes struggles on defense and in situational play-calling. Gruden could complement Heupel by bringing a more balanced, pro-style approach that focuses on game management, defense, and adjusting to tough SEC competition. Together, they’d make a more well-rounded staff that covers both innovation and experience.

2. Revolutionary in College Football

  • First-Ever Co-Head Coaches: College football has never seen a true co-head coaching structure, and Tennessee could pioneer this approach. Imagine the recruitment and media attention this groundbreaking move would generate. Bringing in Gruden as co-head coach would make headlines across the nation and put Tennessee at the forefront of football innovation. This unique leadership duo would offer something no other program can.
  • Specialized Leadership: Heupel could focus on the offense and player development, while Gruden handles the defense, game management, and team discipline. This split would allow each coach to focus on their strengths, making the team stronger as a whole. Gruden's intense personality would give the Vols the edge in preparation and game-day adjustments.

3. Recruiting Powerhouse

  • NFL Connection: Gruden’s NFL resume would be a massive draw for recruits looking to go pro. Players would see the direct pipeline to the NFL under his mentorship, while still benefiting from Heupel’s offensive-minded system. Imagine the appeal of a program where recruits are learning from a former NFL head coach and an offensive innovator.
  • Reinvigorating Tennessee's Image: Tennessee needs a jolt to return to its glory days, and this co-head coach idea could be just the thing to revitalize the program. The media buzz and recruiting hype from having two high-profile coaches would put Tennessee back on the map and bring excitement back to Neyland Stadium.

4. Solving the Vols’ Current Struggles

  • Defensive Focus: Gruden would bring an NFL-level understanding of defense and player discipline, areas where Tennessee has been inconsistent under Heupel. By sharing head coach duties, Gruden could handle defense and tough, in-game decision-making, while Heupel keeps his focus on crafting explosive offensive plays.
  • Balancing Game Management: While Heupel has shown brilliance in offensive schemes, his game management and defensive oversight have left room for improvement. Gruden's experience in managing every aspect of a football team could help guide the Vols in tighter, more strategic ways, especially in high-pressure SEC games.

Conclusion: A Revolutionary Move​

This co-head coach structure would not only be a first in college football but could set a new standard for elite programs looking to maximize their coaching potential. By adding Jon Gruden’s experience and intensity to Josh Heupel’s offensive genius, Tennessee would create a dual-threat leadership team unlike anything ever seen. This bold, forward-thinking move could bring the Vols back to national prominence.
You need to have something in your life to take up all this additional time on your hands. I will just leave it up to current staff to figure it out. Or we get a new one after next season and keep on dreaming.

I’m sure that would work like a woman with two husbands.

I hate to say it but Gruden is washed up. There is 0 evidence that he can be successful at Tennessee. Despite the frustration with Saturday, Heupel tends to have Tennessee trending up. There are Fulmersque red flags with him at times but, to be frank, even his worse season (2023) is on par with Butch Jone's best season and better than Dooley or Pruitt's seasons.

We are recruiting well and we are building a culture under Heupel.

With how the defense is playing, I am NOT a fan of firing any of them, even Martinez. They are building something special. I am concerned about the offense and coaching around it but let's give a few more samples first before jumping to consideration. If we continue to struggle throughout 2024, I wouldn't be opposed to changing out the offensive coaching staff.

We don't need to make rash decisions after one loss.
