It's Done - Strong will be announced [unconfirmed]

[Donger]

What about, Gruden doesn't want to coach in college do u not understand?

Source? I can prove he doesn't care what level it is.

Don't you know this is all a smokescreen? (Sarcasm)

 

[globadoc]

Gundy and Butch Davis....and Petrino....

Not really interested, risky until cleared, and cancerous. Who then?

 

[vol2013]

No I'm not ignoring it. Just pointing out that at his most recent stop he wouldn't have been successful enough for you to support according to your standards.

Plus it is not like he is the only coach from Miami that has struggled somewhere else, see Dennis Erickson at Arizona State.

per ESPN

"Charlie Strong mum on future"

 

[1974Vol]

Again....besides Gruden (who ISN'T INTERESTED IN THE JOB) Who do you want that is a realistic candidate?

Patterson, Davis, Fisher, are 3 off the top

We are going to pay Charlie Strong 750,000.00 a year more than Gary Patterson makes? Really? Patterson has NO buyout.

It really doesn't matter that Patterson doesn't have a buyout. He doesn't want to come to UT.

Just off the phone with key inside source: he confirms Strong to UT and, get this, Gruden to Louisville! I have double riveted this info--and if it proves wrong I will not post on this board evay again--or eat cornbread.

 

[seaofORANGE22]

unfortunately yes I did.....that is the reason I will not support Strong bc he is really just as unproven as those two....been burned twice.....thats on me...will not happen again until he wins the East...anything less is just mediocrity which I will not support

I see where you're coming from. But that seems like harsh logic to me. I mean, we just went 1-7 in conference. For me, I am supporting change, and that's what we are getting. I'll support our new coach and give him a chance to prove himself until proven otherwise.

I think Strong would be a fine choice. I'm pretty confused by all this doubt that he can get it done by most on here.

We made him an offer he couldn't refuse... but he refused it anyway. Time to move on.

He's mediocre at best. Another terrible hire if true.

You a mediocre poster at best. Another terrible post.

 

[volsfan30093]

guess its the same guy that said the Gruden deal was done, the same guy that said someone was being picked up in a Caddy, the same guy that said the hotel clerk said it was one night and an early check out------COM-ON MAN get your lies straight.

 

[7thgroupvolfan]

Not so sure we aren't steaming full speed towards the Iceberg Kirby.

imo....gonna sink faster than the titanic.

Idaho coach just hired for 390000 a year. Granted there ranked 121 and we are 68. We are paying a 2nd tier coach 3.75mil WTF is going on. This is truly smoke for something big...

 

[GeneralSmokey]

Prove It!

 

[Volsfaninva917]

I'm starting to think all the gruden bs made us quick to forget just how bad things were here the last 3 years I mean this when I say it any hire at this point would be an upgrade over our last coach if that's what we want to call him

I can't wait for this to be over so you guys will quit talking about smoke and smokescreens.

SOON!!!
This.

Strong denies: Media expresses disbelief
Gundy denies: Media expresses disbelief
Fisher denies: Media expresses disbelief
Golden denies: Media expresses disbelief
Fedora denies: Media expresses disbelief
virtually every other coach linked to the UT job denies: Media expresses disbelief

but,

Gruden denies: Media says absolutely he's not coming

How does that work, exactly?

 

[MFL]

Gundy or Gruden Soon...Please Save us

 

[EezyE]

Why do you say he isn't interested? He hasn't said that. Are you basing it off Hubbs, Rucker, Hyams, etc.? They have not been right at all on this mess.

 

[Brentwoodvolfan]

Well I'll give it a BOOM!!! Love this hire!!! Now let's get him on the road!!! Guys lets put all our differents behind us and move on!!! It's all good and better days are ahead:dance2:

Maybe because it's not as realistic?

What a joke you are, thinking highly enough of yourself to judge my posts and opinions. This is the first decent season strong has had in the big east, yet you're ready to ride his jock. I would like an actual winner instead of yet another up and comer.

And remember, my mediocre is always better than your very best, every day, all day. You should find something more constructive to do with your time than rate other people's opinions with your lack of intellectual acuity.
