Let's clear up the waters here:


1. Are UT boosters really interested in bringing Gruden here or is this a negavol/anti-Dooley pipe dream? Yes, the major boosters want Gruden here.

2. Is Gruden really interested in coming here? Yes, he has expressed his interest to the people that matter when inquired.

3. Has Gruden turned us down before? Yes, Gruden was contacted in the past about UT and turned us down. There are multiple differences between then and now but the main point is that the "inquiries" never got to the point they are now.

4. Can we afford him? Yes, If Gruden agrees to come then money will not be a problem. Dooley's $5 Mil buyout has already been pledged.

5. Would his brother come with him? Doubtful, he's got his own thing going right now.


While exciting, this doesn't mean it's 100% that he's coming here. It simply means that both parties have made each other aware that they are interested and listening.

How can we trust you? Where did you get this info? There's a few of you on here know the answer to that and the validity behind it...and I'll leave it at that.

Happy Friday and GBO.

This all sounds like a big pipe dream to me, LOL.

It would be ignorant for Gruden to quit a good paying job that's very easy and gives him lots of time off to go to any college and have to work his butt off and have to beg 17 year old kids to come to a college and play for him.

Keep dreaming Grudenites, LOL.

VFL...GBO!!!

Keep trollin there Trolly McTrollerson.

I make a lot less money in my current job than many I have been offered because its what I want to do. How do you have this inside information on Gruden and what his motivations are? Maybe he likes the challenge of coaching and is tired of being "Marv Albert".

Like I said I am here because I want our failure of a coach to be sent packing, and although I would love Gruden I have heard 0 anywhere but in this thread about him specifically. Its all the stuff I hear about Dooley that is so disturbing, and from several people that interact daily with him.

If you have a source that backs up all your diatribes then by all means share, but I guarantee you if you know anyone near the HC in terms of working with-under-alongside him that says he is great.......well you probably do not know them that well.

I havent heard Gruden from any of my sources but I have heard from several people I trust 100% that

1. Dooleys job is on the field in Starkville. We lose tomorrow night, he is gone. Not necessarily immediately but the decision will be made and he will most likely know his fate.
2. A friend and former teammate fo mine in HS thta played very successful SEC ball and worked with Saban and Dooley at LSU told me when he was hired that "Dooley is a blue-blood that acts like the spoiled brat that he is every time things do not go his way" and that Saban liked him because he was a "Yes man that was no threat at all". The players there abused him, and the players here do the same except here it matters.
3. Even if Dooley does win in Starkville he will need to look good vs Bama and USCjr and then win the last 4 with a good bowl showing to be GUARANTEED another year.
