I have a question that I’ve been thinking about lately but haven’t really heard the answer yet. First of all, I’m all in on Gruden. My question is IF Gruden does not become the coach, would Patterson, Mullen, etc be given the same amount (or close to it) that Gruden would receive? To be honest, I think that’s my biggest concern regarding the next coach. I think coaches should be able to coach and do as they please rather than have any meddling from the AD, academic admin, and boosters.

Let me clarify my question above. I’m talking about control.

Yeahhhhhh, the UT AD is using you as a pawn. Wow. You are just sad. Just fess up like the rest of the "insiders" that "went silent." You all are anti-vols imo. Coming on here, and pumping people full of vague, bs, non-factual information. People like you are the reason this fan base is a laughing stock, and you are a detriment to the legitimate coaching search. You put crap in peoples brains that will make it so much more difficult for the next HC to have solid support.

:thud:

How do you know it's "non-factual"? I've seen you posts before. Nothing but vitriol. You sound like an angry, twitchy little dude. Chill the eff out and quit attacking everyone and calling them liars; especially when you have no proof that anything is a lie thus far.

I believe he has but I am not sure if it is any further than that. I do not believe anyone on this board has any clue what the contract says or if it has been signed. I do believe UT has tried but they have tried in the past. I am not convinced JG even wants to coach again

This is not how your other posts read.

Last check. This thread or last thread alone had over 500,000 views. That's a million eyes (assuming all viewers have both eyes of course) that has been going on and lurking without a possibility of posting. Keep that in mind.

That is literally more views than CNN on a 1 day basis on average. This is according to their website.


Volnation apparently has an extremely larger footprint than any of us thought.

Thanks for the work. Interesting.

This goes straight to the point I made earlier. Currie really has NO choice but to address Grumors because of this and many other reasons (assuming we don't land Gruden).

Gruden Soon!

He's been too distracted this week because he's been interviewing for the Tennessee and Florida jobs....and all possible NFL openings.

So swain says he said no. We holding to that or no?

Swain, I like him when he sticks to discussing game strategy and player progression. But we all know how many bridges he burned during the aftermath of Fulmer's firing. His legitimate sources are about as numerous as Tennessee roads without pot holes.

I don't see Currie saying "here's 10 million who wants to coach". To sway Gruden away, you have to pay him that kind of money. If Currie has money to play with and they were willing to throw 10 million at gruden, I wouldn't pay over 7 for Petterson

If you take the message board insider equation out of the mix, there is still one remaining fact. Neither Currie nor Gruden have said no. Gruden has actually gone as far as being asked not to mention it in interviews and said things that would seem to be very trollish if he weren't actually a legitimate candidate. You can't ignore that. He absolutely is not trolling the fanbase. I'm all in until 1 or both says it's not happening.

I want to believe he is going to coach here but if he truly did what prevented him from doing it the other two opportunities?

Major reasons are different man. I don't know if it works out, but there are so many things that make sense now that didn't then.

Be pessimistic, but hating ain't cool.

Be what you want though. I am.

Quick question, which of my posts exactly has been cruel? Which has been angry? And can you please point me to a post where I've "called everyone a liar."

Also, if you have seen me post before, you would know why I stand where I do.
