I have a fraternity brother from ETSU, who is the brother in law of Jon Gruden. I was a Lambda Chi at ETSU back in the mid to late 80's, anyway I asked my frat brother if his brother in law, Jon Gruden, would actually take the UT position, and he said to me tonight that it is "looking good" and "close to a 75% chance he would take it". That doesn't mean he will take it but it is more of a reality than a hoax, like some may think. He also told me that Coach Gruden would want "complete control" of the program, just like Saban at Bama. It will be interesting to see how how it all turns out.

So you know Kenny Chesney I presume?

I didn't know Gruden had a sister.
Interesting.

Ok, here's Gruden, in orange, and with a trophy. Alas, the crowd has not showed up. Yet.

Nice!

 

[peyton4heisman]

I hope when CJG wins the NC here he takes the trophy on an Alabama Walmart tour just to rub it in the Bammers' faces!

You're a heart-attack waiting to happen dude. Calm.

...Can't help it, this is THE CHANCE for Tennessee to DOMINATE the SEC. I get freaked out whenever i hear something bad because of Tennessee's past reputation of screwing things like this up.

What Sparty is saying doesn't sound "bad" to me, it just seems like it's complicating things and that it could end up being a big hurdle. Maybe too big, idk.

 

[volinbham]

I have no idea if Gruden will result in us dominating the SEC. I do know that while he's here it will be hella-entertaining.

Johnny-ball didn't dominate the SEC and there were some crappy years but the good ones were good. 1985 in particular was spectacular.

I knew there was another way. My mind is not functioning at optimal capacity.

Everything is out of our control. Relax and enjoy the ride. I am confident an effort is being made to make this come together but if it doesn't we will survive.

two part process. If only part one occurs I'm good so long as the second part comes together with a good option. My strong preference is Gruden is the second part.

 

[Doyle Hargraves]

He also said he doesn't think it's over for Dooley right now.

Give it up. If Hubbs says Hart has "concerns" with Doolittle, then Doolittle's ass is about to be fired.

In terms of time and location, the story checks out as best it can with a quick web search. I can't verify him, but I can't bust him either.
Lol, I am almost disappointed. I wanted to bust a troll.

Well, then great. I guess it's looking good.

EDIT: Either that poster is legit, or he really did his homework.

It would make for an exciting time for sure. I am not going to lie, I want this badly.

Have you checked the Greek membership at ETSU?

Right on cue. I just did. See above. I searched his name and the frat name, and an ETSU link came up.

This is how the vetting process gets done on VN. Nice work!!!k:

This took me to Lil Wayne "A milli"

Fail.

You've ignored your roots, young one. Not a fail by zone standards.

I rate this thread five stars

If this thread is five stars, then you know it is anti-Dooley.

HA!....and we know Dooley isn't reading it. He is on the three star thread of Charlie Strong or whoever.

 

[Wilson27]

Just read on another thread where Gruden is in Little Rock. They have the plane number and everything. Coincidentally it is the same plane Lovie flew here...
