Official Jon Gruden Thread II (merged)

[hohenfelsvol]

Great minds, ho. Great minds.

Bloody well right mate

Is this "word" the rumored 8-win requirement, as that would explain why CDD is still in office, since 8-4 is technically still in play? Or is this "word" the rumored offer of letting CDD decide how he goes out? Or neither of the two?

Thanks.

You had me at 8.

I hope so...I don't care if Dooley wins evey game left on this years schedule now....I want this over and Gruden at the helm

No future with Dooley. None. I'll be rooting for the PLAYERS this weekend.

I'm realistic but I'll let myself indulge in the Gruden magic for now.

Sunseri.....has been a huge disappointment.

Don't know why he would be stirring it up. His defense is the worst in Tenn history.

 

[ericberry4heisman]

It should be obvious to all of our current staff that they don't deserve another year.

better do some pushaways, or he'll be at 1664.

 

[JayVols]

But that was end of season. I'm assuming he was talking about a midseason firing. Would be a PR stink to fire him coming off an upset. Would just make it bad timing

He fecally soiled his place of slumber during and after the press conference yesterday.

Is/Will this thread be more epic than the Bryce Brown one?

I wasn't around here for that one b/c i didn't join VN until Aug.2010..What was the post count on that one?

The amount of points we're on pace to give up this year?

 

[phowell23]

Every offensive coordinator in the SEC calling the AD office now asking for Sunseri to stay at his current position.

 

[BeecherVol]

Sunseri.....has been a huge disappointment.

Not to be that guy. But I was worry about how that would turn out in the short term when it happened. It was worst than I expected, but I didn't see the sunshine some did.

This one is worse. There was no Bryce Brown II that I can remember. He probably had around 15,000 though

He is a beaten man, coaching a beaten team. I have defended him in the past, even against Lex, but NO MORE.....

This program needs a boost that only someone like Gruden can give it

This is what everyone credible has said all along. And Sparty is credible.

Teague on Fla receiver late
Teague on bumpis
Brewer on bumpis
AJ on bama wr

All big 3rd downs. All easy conversions and easy for a jv qb to see from under center. More errors of course, but those sum up the year for me.

A couple of things, if this business about Hart giving his word to assistants for 2013:

1. We have witnessed the worst defense, statistically up to this point, in 120 years. Even at this point, at least the coaches on the defensive side have to understand Hart saying "I'm sorry I gave you my word, but WTF am I supposed to do now? This is ridiculous".

2. It really shouldn't matter who said what promise to who, anyway. All that matters is what is in ink on the contract. If the boosters are willing to pay buyouts, whatever assistants the new coach doesn't want should be given a check and their walking papers.

Wow!

What about the one when Kiffy bolted for USC? I know the one on TOS when that happened was crazy.:crazy:

 

[BJWeeks]

I wonder if Gruden has already said yes but he wants to bring in his own staff and that's why the big hold up in the process.

 

[Spartacavolus]

He basically give them this season?

Assuming 8 wins in the HC 3rd year and a more talented roster.

Do you think it still happens or is dooley and company being retained?

I couldn't even access the site until the next morning. It was in overload.

Whaaaat? I live less than 5 minutes from Blackman. Small world.

I'm on Fortress Blvd.

Written contracts matter...not oral statements/promises made prior to entering contracts.

Safe to assume reg season wins?
