The post was to you. The girlfriends remark, which I assume is the personal attack you bring up, was directed at a group of posters. Regardless, I apologized if that hurt your feelings. Can we move on?

Are you going to continue to sidestep my questions? So far DTO is the only one to step up and lay it on the line. The other insiders seem to be more into deflection and the hedging of bets.

And I have asked you what are we discussing? Why not answer?

OV, I wouldn't respond to these creeps anymore. Three of them came online last night all about the same time, and wanting to know source names. Don't know what they're up to, but it seems like a coordinated effort to get you guys to spill your sources. I wouldn't do it. It's kinda like a throw down challenge. Fonz only joined the site in March, so I would't trust them at all. I am just gonna ignore their posts. (not ignore button)

Makes sense to me.:good!:

I put those guys on ignore b/c I don't want their posts to take up space on my screen any more than they have to.:blink:

I've just been trying to figure out who is actually credible around here. JayVols himself said we should all be skeptical of any information being passed around.

Can you vouge for the track record of any of these people and point me to past inside info they have posted which was accurate, or are you just their cheerleader?

OK Fonzie, I have read quite a bit on here for the last 4 years and the people that stated things that was the most accurate were most of the ones giving us info in here. But lets move up to now, the info that you should have read in the last forum and continuing into this one has started to be confirmed by local and national media. Eric Ainge has been dropping hints for a week now that CDD is probably gone next week, Tony Basilio posted it on his website as well as talking about it on his show, Chris Lowe of ESPN has statedthe same thing on his reports as well as live broadcasts on 104.5 the zone in Nashville, even Jimmy Hyams acknowledged Friday that there is aa real good chance that CDD is gone after SC game.
OldVol, Boro-vol, Jayvol, Little DTO, Bcartervol98, and a few others are Reputable posters. You sir, just like the rest of us in this country have the freedom to believe in something or not to. No one here is trying to convience you otherwise. Also in case you have'nt noticed, there is no prize for having the most accurate info on this forum, so get over yourself! No one died and made you the forum police! No one is force feeding you anything! If you don't like whats being said here than get the HELL out!!!!!!!!! But sir you will stop taking swipes at people that have proven to be reputable and are willing to share information! Oh and by the way in your statement above the term is "vouch for" not "vogue"!

Actually that isn't true at all. OldVol and Yay4Bray started asking for 'proof' of things last nigh and I jumped it to note the irony. OV is still trying to call out another poster who claims to have sat near Haslem, yet he continues to sidestep my questions to him. It just seems like a double standard, that's all.

Of the group of insiders, DTO is the only one to step up and go all in with his information. I don't necessarily agree with him but I respect that he came forward and didn't avoid questions or hedge his bets.

I thought we were discussing Gruden and the validity of the self proclaimed insiders in this thread. What's your point?

I don't know if this Gruden talk is true. I hope it is, but anyone with eyes can see that Dooley is done.

Thanks smokey, I just get tired of people that wish to trash other people because they don't believe what they say, which is no big deal, but they want to make it personal for what ever reason.

On TV it looked more like 50-50.

The end zone below the jumbotron was 50/50 or worse. The upper part of the upper deck was all Bama fans, the lower part of the upper deck was mostly Vols with plenty of Bama fans mixed in.

The rest of the stadium was pretty much orange, with the exception of the official visitor section.

I'd say it was roughly equivalent to last year's LSU game.

Well that's what I was asking smart ass.

As for validity, they are well worth listening to. Are they claiming anything is 100%? No. If you don't think something is going on you are entitled to your opinion. If you do, you have to use your judgement on who you believe or have more faith in. This thread hasn't gone almost 18,000 including the original for nothing. And if you want concrete evidence or some kind of recording from Haslam, you are dreaming to think you will get it. Actually, I think they are even more believable since they don't give up their sources. So read more and back the **** off OV.

I obviously fat fingered vouch. You obviously knew what I meant but felt like taking a shot at me anyway.

So just because I'm asking the same questions as our insiders are asking others I'm considered forum police. Doesn't seem fair, but okay.

You claim these posters are reputable. If you would kindly point me to a few things they've had inside info on on the past, that would help set me straight since I'm fairly new here.

Media are wrong all the time and yet none of them are reporting the "facts" that we have here. I'm not disputing some of the info here will turn out to be accurate, I just don't believe it's as cut and dry as some are trying to make out. Is that not allowed?

Fact is, OV, boro, and jay (as well as a few others from other sites), all have very similar information as I do. We get it from a variety of places and the facts are, that they all are congruent with each other.

I'm not looking for ecred and could care less. All I'm doing is passing on the same information that I have received. Others are doing the same.

Will Gruden be our next head coach? No one is 100% sure until he steps up on a podium with Dave Hart. However, I know for a fact that UT is going all in for him. He has shown quite a bit of interest back. The details are in the middle and hopefully it will all pan out.

I agree. I've been fending off attackers all morning just for asking questions and calling out the double standard a few seem to have.

The people providing info here don't have to prove anything to anyone. They have repeatedly said that it is not a done deal, and they are not looking for e-cred. Info has come from a multitude of people and not just from here. It has also begun to leak to the media. This is why I choose to believe the Gruden rumors are true. We're all just going to have to wait to see what happens.
