Games arent played on paper. Our offense itself is good enough to compete with anyone... Its the defense that has to prove itself.... Which it will IMO. I cannot wait till the end of this year. All you whiny ass Dooley haters wIll feel ashamed that you werent patient enough to give the man a fair ammount of time to build the program. And you call yourselves fans..?

Actually, I grimace when I see the Gruden thread.
DD came into a football program that no other coach "worth their salt" would take. Fulmer drove it into the ground and Kiffin added more dirt to the pile.
Just look at the situation today, this program is filled with promise for the season. The have a full roster, and a lot of skill at the key positions. This is the season where CDD will show his coaching ability (or lack of... as many here hope).
IMO...CDD will be a fixture at UT for years to come...the man will mature into the role of a head coach of a major football program, we will see a change in him this year.
The Vols under CDD's leadership will win enough games to capture the hearts of even some you you haters.
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:

Yeah, even if Gruden stepped in after this season, to replace Dooley, it would still be rather detrimental to have another complete staff turnover.What is his current pay with ESPN? He'd be getting a Sabanesque type of contract. Does he make that much now per year?
He was also the only HC in the modern era to rebuild the Raiders from the ground up to be a Superbowl caliber team.Hey.......everyone that says "GRUDEN won a Superbowl!!! OMG, HE'S AWESOME!!! He would bring SO much prestige to the UT football program!!!"
Mike Ditka won 3 Super Bowls. He doesn't have a HC gig. Let's hire him. [/sarcasm]
JON GRUDEN IS GARBAGE.
