Official Jon Gruden Thread II (merged)

[TOP]

Is that Hasselbeck in your avi?

Glad he and the Titans pulled out that Pittsburgh game..Was not expecting it AT ALL.

Yes. Can't Hassel the beck. Got milk?

I wasn't expecting it either but it was awesome because I hate the Steelers. If only they could have beaten the damn Patriots.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Ready to dance?

Yes sir,I'm ready to do the Gruden Dance!:dance2:

 

[volsforever27]

Any thread with Def Leppard in it is ok by me.

However, if you're mocking them, I will be forced to cut you.

 

[Yay4Bray]

The only thing left we have to wait on is a loss or two and a signature from Gruden. The future is bright brothers.

 

[TOP]

Believe it brother.

You have Smokester's attention.

 

[bcartervol98]

Believe it brother.

When we have our celebration party how funny will it be if we know a lot of the same people lol. It's a small world, and I know you and a couple others are good. Some of the things you guys say are almost verbatim what I hear "around" haha

I don't like the Steelers either and their fans, there were too many of them in our stadium!

That Patriot game was UGLY! Brady is one of the most arrogant players I have ever seen.:banghead2:

 

[Zues1]

I struck up a conversation with guy last Sunday that quickly turned to UT Football. He’s say’s “you hear the rumor”
Which one I ask, Gruden says he. It was all I could do to keep a straight face and replied, that’s been rumored since Fulmer was shown the door. Yeah but it’s getting real serious he says.
This latest update came from a vendor at a flea market, bawahahah

Agreed. Steeler and Patriot fans suck. Brady too.

 

[vol4eva]

I can't believe this is actually this close to happening!

We talkin deal has been offered or verbal agreement only needs a signature. Any info is appreciated.

Lovin' me some Def Leppard.

At your request!

[chavisut]

[LittleDTO]

The latter.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

The latter.

Man, this is one helluva dream I'm having,DTO.

 

[YorkVol]

Blue waters and sunny skies..... just like St. Maarten last week.

Did the plane crash?

 

[SamRebel35]

Any band that sounds the same, even after the drummer's arm falls off, wasn't that good to start with. Sorry Def Leppardites.

 

[JayVols]

Gruden glieben glauchen globen! Alright!

You got somethin' to say?

 

[WesternKyVol]

Thought it was an Offspring reference.

 

[Sportsfan]

Reasons why Gruden would be a great hire

1.All time NFL record 95-81. Winning record, automatic upgrade

2.Has won a super bowl

3.Has been getting a lot of TV facetime, and is highly recognizable. Great for recruiting

4.Has probably made some friends at ESPN and I bet Tennessee would get a LOT of positive coverage from ESPN

5. 5-4 playoff record-Good with big game

6.Has been a pro coach and can sell that to recruits

7.He was an assistant coach at the University of Tennessee from 1986-1987

8. Been offered jobs at many other prestigious schools and we would be lucky to have him (Oregon, Miami, Louisville)

9.He is well connected

10.He has worked with several great coaches

11.Gruden host several highly popular quarterback camps. He would get his choice at quarterback.

12. The charisma he has is amazing

13. He is 1-0 against Saban (not including preseason)

discuss...

First time I have seen Grudens name mentioned on any vol board.......interesting.:birgits_giggle:

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

usual progression

1. fire Dooley
2. hire Chucky
3. general happiness
4. disillusionment at failures
5. scream for buyout
6. fire Chucky
7. lather, rinse, repeat

Oh no you didn't!!!

All I know is at this point a week ago I would have been surprised to state that I 100% believe Gruden will be on the sidelines at UT in 2013

After the last 72 hours I get the distinct impression something would have to go horribly wrong for this to not get done.

I do not have any inside info about a deal being offered, but knowing these people all my life I have never seen such unified positivity amongst my friends that know what's going on and a couple involved in the buyout group. Gruden is listening, the money is there, it's all a timing thing now.....at least that's the impression I get.

 

[pattiycake]

Haha..Nice..Thanks,glad you like..No matter what the view is,it's a good one.:naughty:

btw, i have come to the conclusion that you need to hit me up in an e-mail b/c somethings we can't say on an open forum.

Will do.

 

[Blackmarket803]

lol: at your hubris

Hubris? I'm not getting any of the info, i'm just saying not to push the ones that are, we all know that they can't just throw everything out there. Am I wrong Jay/OV/DTO?
