Official Jon Gruden Thread II (merged)

[Oldvol75]

Off topic, but I wonder who will pay Chizik and staffs buyouts? I heard on the sports news (espn i think) it was around 9.5 million for their buyouts. Add a new coaching contract to that and it makes Dooley and staff's buyout look like chump change.

Probably two buyouts, see Troop Taylor and Luper.

I assume you are talking to Boro.. I am still mad about the sirens....

Yeah, I'm talking to Boro but he ain't talking to me.:cray:

Here, hold my orange purse and I will fix the damn sirens.

 

[JayVols]

Better than 90%....and that is only because of UT's propensity for major eff-ups in the past. This is a new day.....I'm pretty sure of my info.

His info has been in line with what I've been told.

What is the boosters name, i cant think of it right no.

 

[HOLLYWOOD KOBE]

Don't you think he would be smart enough to have an "out" for coaching in his contract?

Not to be argumentative, but it would seem the whole reason for getting that provision is to keep him from having an "out." Otherwise, he's free to leave at this convenience for personal or professional reasons and it was a waste of space in the extension.

 

[BurninOrange]

Exactly.

Enough to make what is going to happen. And not even blink an eye as they write the check.

 

[orangesoda]

Still haven't figured out why we are waiting to can his ass....

ergen or engen, something like that

 

[cutnitclose]

He can go to linebackers...

That would be one high dollar LB coach

Can only guess timing on announcements not to coincide with other events outside of us and also follow on process to hire.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Must've missed it,my bad. :blush:

...And they're orange drawers,thank you.

He could have an exception for specific programs or teams....much like Urban Meyer reportedly had for tOSU and Notre Dame.

 

[BurninOrange]

I know this is off topic but who do you all think he will have as his assistants.

Charles William Ergen

I'd say 100% if not for our history. I feel confident in what I was told.

From a practical standpoint, why spend the kind of money they have to upgrade facilities only to cut the program short on the back end with a sub par coaching staff when you had the ability to prevent it?

 

[Obsessed]

I read a article once about people worth that kind of money ( think it was Fred smith)

That if they dropped a 100 dollar bill on the ground it would cost them more money to stop and pick it up then leave it lying on the ground It was a example to the amount of money they make every minute of the day

 

[Vol2424]

I hate you too you little S.O.B!
Naaaaw, I love your momma...

lol

lol... Here we go again... hand it over..

 

[Blackmarket803]

Arky got Gruden. They remodeling his office now.

We are getting Houston nutt

Sorry guys but the magic eight ball has spoken.

Drop by Hogville, some dude named Serenadium64 (has to be from VN) is totally wrecking that site. lol:

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

I know this is off topic but who do you all think he will have as his assistants.

Hopefully Raheem Morris as the DC.:rock:

 

['Boro-vol]

Whats the chances of Dooleys announcement tomorrow 'Boro?

Haven't heard anything to that effect. I expect the same timeline previously discussed. It was laid out when Dooley was notified last week.

 

[7thgroupvolfan]

Yeah...admin bs right now.
