Official Jon Gruden Thread II (merged)

[hohenfelsvol]

First year doesn't count..... Dooley math.

Year 0

 

[LebanonVolunteer]

You think? They didn't when DD was hired

Just because coaches did not want anything to do with the job at 2 million, does not mean they would not at 4-5.

 

[TNHopeful505]

I posted that yesterday. Everyone said he can get out of it.

 

[Volballfan]

Hope his agent isn't the same as Randy Shannon

^ This, and let's hope the so called insiders on this board don't say it's a sure thing, cause if they do then we know it isn't true.

 

[hohenfelsvol]

Old news

 

[UTBasketball2]

Supposedly there's no buyout for it.

 

[coffeevol]

Ok, off subject....I am on my droid and accidentally changed it to pc version. Can't find the button again. Help help

According to Dooley's math, Gruden will have this program turned around in one year b/c that's what a real coach does.

IN other words, we should see progress in year 2 like Muschamp at UF...Sorry he is the first coach I thought of...I think b/c Gruden will be coaching circles around him.:rock:

 

[DjCrenshaw]

I have interest in Gruden. (confirmed)

Source?

 

[knucklehead_vol]

OCI says a 6 yr 31.5 mil offer is on the table for Gruden. Waiting for other insiders to confirm it from here and TOS.

Party at my house for the memphis people if this is true.

 

['Boro-vol]

Offer is there just no one knows how much. Maybe what OCI posts is true. But that is the only offer seen or heard of at this point

I posted different numbers last week. 7 years, $35m.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

That means we get him for 7!!! :dance:

The longer the better as far as I'm concerned and I'm sure others would agree.

Factor slightly up and post and instant e-cred

 

[1967vol]

What was the last college football team Gruden coached? Seriously, I ask from ignorance of his past college career.

 

[Oldvol75]

I posted different numbers last week. 7 years, $35m.

For about 3 weeks I've heard 5 to 7, $30 to $35.

 

[volnpowell]

If Gruden had no interest then he would say I have no interest.

Usually yes, but he is in a diffent position than most since he has been here b4 (g.a.) and respects the program. Chris Lowe said according to his sources that Griden inicated now would be a better fit since roster is better and facilities are being finished.

Right Boro you did sorry man. Lot to remember. Good to hear from you

 

[ITSGR82BATNVOL]

Just because coaches did not want anything to do with the job at 2 million, does not mean they would not at 4-5.

According to reports. Muschamp and Stoops (possibly others) were offered a good bit more than 2 million, and they turned it down flat. The reality of the situation at that time was no proven coach wanted anything to do with UT period. 3/4 of our roster at that time were not even D1 prospects, that's fact.

 

[Vol4ever]

SEC Football on CSS just talked about Dooley and the supposed offer to resign after the KY game last year. He said there was a close source that Dooley would get another year LOL.

I would be shocked at this point if he got another year.....

 

[RagingOrange]

Lets burn this baby down!!!!!!!! Get on with it!!!

 

[GERALD JONES 4 HEISMAN]

Maybe Pacific, not sure though

 

['Boro-vol]

Tru-Grudes are not surprised by the new thread.

 

[Drivebye]

Tennessee will have to pony up this time. If we don't this proud program may be down for another decade. This will be an hire that can't be f**ked up. They need to take their time and get it right. Gruden would be great, but will he be here for the long haul. I hope so.

 

[CSpindizzy]

Jon Gruden hates UT.

 

[bcartervol98]

This is getting exciting!
