This has been the scheduled departure for at least the last week an a half. It's going to happen--Dooley has been done for weeks.
I still believe it will be made official Sunday and Gruden will make a public comment about accepting the position on MNF.
Official Gruden introduction on Tuesday or Wednesday. Hinshaw will be named interim for the rest of the season.
If its Gruden our recruiting will improve. I don't think people understand, you can take it to the bank. Kids will want to play for a superbowl winning coach who is constantly on ESPN in their living rooms and touted as a football expert.
Pro-style offenses generally don't work in college football. That is my ONLY concern with Gruden. I think that can be overcome, though. I'd still love the hire.:dance2:
You all are amazing. According to "credible sources" Dooley's been fired on Mondays about 3 times now. Can't wait to see what happens when this one falls through.
Seriously, you're like teenage girls fawning over Gruden. And there's not even any proof he's coming.
There will be no coaching change announced before season's end if it even happens. If a change was made now the only likely person to bring in as interim HC would be Phil Fulmer. This would be like K-State bringing back Snyder. There is a large segment of UT fan base that would like to see CPF back at the helm.
As far as Jon Gruden goes I am in Tampa and the latest rumor has him going to the Phila Eagles if he wants to coach and the Eags don't make the playoffs.
The latest rumor on Charlie Strong is that he is going to be the next HC at Arkansas.
Thinking here is CDD finishes out season winning rest of games highlighted by a MCB victotry over Duke.

DeerPark & BabyVol on TOS have stated this morning that Dooley is out. Gruden has been given 3 options/contracts to consider from UT. They are not saying Gruden will be hired, but Dooley will not coach Tennessee in 2013.
If you follow any of these boards, those 2 guys are a couple of the best at being reliable. Better days ahead.
