Interesting...

I don't really think it will happen but there are some weird things going on, least of which is that Gruden himself has said he would be interested in coaching at Tennessee.


"There's more. For a brief time yesterday, as noticed by Athlon Sports, Gruden's Wikipedia page stated that he was "the current head coach at the University of Tennessee."

Wikipedia edits have been happening for weeks now and that article is from October. It means nothing.

It's interesting to me that people still don't know how Wikipedia works.

Well there is more to the story than just the Wiki entry if you would care to read it.

I think it's the whole "pedia" ending on the made-up word. If they would have gone with "wikibabble," I don't think the unmerited creditability would be an issue.

It's also a month old.

There's really nothing interesting here since it's all very old now.

Gruden is not coming here so get over it.

There haven't been any prank edits in a while, so I assume that Wiki has now locked his page, as they generally do with public figures.

As I wrote I am not buying into gruden being our next coach but just thought this was interesting. However, I don't think tampering with someone's Wiki page is as easy as some make it out to be.
