I see two ways Gruden might fail as a college coach:

1. He literally can't adapt to coaching college kids at all.
2. He's not really committed to it.

I agree, he is to smart and driven not succeed. He also has had time to recharge his batteries and is still young enough and competitve enough to want to get back into the game

There's no guarantee in coaching period. Bama could have a rash of injuries and make Saban look like a has been. You never know, but coaches with NFL credentials command a lot of respect from recruits and players alike.

He has such a deep roster that a rash of injuries would cause minimal dysfunction

He was less than a major target. Interest was gauged. At that point in his career and where we were there was no way. It's still very, very, very unlikely. But, people would be shocked if they knew some of the conversations that have taken place since.

So, shock me.

I know it's not a long list. Any others? I would think he would consider Notre Dame.

That would be one and the closest option.

I could see a remote chance for tOSU and Florida as the only other ones moving the radar. Both would have to have perfect timing.But considering who is there now, I don't see that happening.

I was thinking he may consider OSU. I can't see him coaching at an SEC school other than Tennessee.

Just heard the UF announcer from Jacksonville say that he thinks CDD is gone after this year and that HE thinks that Gruden is in. What does everybody think about that?? :unsure::unsure:

Jon Gruden would have no interest and Tennessee would not begin to get close to offering enough to get him interested.

Amazing that his name continues to come up..

The Gruden talk is the most far fetched coach talk on this board, never will happen on so many fronts its not even funny.

The bold part is utter BS and it is BS in a major way, Gruden if he ever coaches again it will be at the next level not in college. I seriously doubt he would give up his freedom to return to UT for one and he makes more money with his current gig then we would ever offer him.

Then believe what you want. I don't give a damn what you think. Just telling you what I know. Do I think he would take the job ultimately? No. do I think he'd listen? Yes. Do I think if the timing was perfect and he had the itch it would work? You're damn right.

And I'll tell you like I've told countless others, money will never be an issue if the right guy is available at UT. Ever. Period.

So in your mind Gruden would be the right guy? he would be the guy that Haslam, Thorton, Debusk, Hart would open the checkbook? The boosters that I know I don't see Gruden being the guy
