I know it makes you guys nervous. Remember, SCar played LSU and FL in Death Valley and The Swamp. They played UGA at home. They have The Vols at home. They played Vandy in Nashville and Mizzou at home. SCar plays very well at home and struggles away from home. They also have Steve Spurrier on their sideline while we're stuck with Dools.

OK I guess I can come on and eat some crow today. I was told directly friday night and saturday morning that they would not be firing Dools and he would be back next season unless they could get Gruden and at the time they didnt think it was that high of a %. Ok after all the crap saturday night and that little meeting in the box has convinced everyone. There has been feelers out and I will agree that ther has always been a feeling if you could get a Gruden they would do it no matter what Dools record was the rest of the season. I will give the insiders credit that this thing is getting pretty dang hot. Timeline like Mboro Vol has said is not completely set, could be anytime or up to end of December.

Ok, slap me around..........

No problem....welcome.

BTW....I didn't set the timeline, just reported what I was told. These things are fluid, but there is a process in place.

Obviously things could change.

Takes a standup guy to admit when he is wrong. Not many peoples egos will allow it.

True, but the thought of it makes me a little nauseated.

FL and LSU are power run heavy teams, neutralized Clowney's ability to bust up plays. Georgia/Mizzou like to air it out a little, and they got curb stomped. We play more like UGA.

I understand the timeline, but if by some miracle we pull the upset Sat, it would make for an awkward firing and the sunshine pumpers would be out in force. I don't like risking it.

Maybe it is a situation with getting a staff together, or its paperwork, etc or maybe even a negotiation with Dools on a buyout.

As has been said earlier, there is a lot that goes into the timeline that most dont know about.
