[hohenfelsvol]

Hohenfels.........son.......you're like a quasi cheerleader for this thread, always keeping things lighthearted. Love it.

Thanks. Going nuts if I this too seriously.

So what's the chance this comes to fruition? 50%? 70%?

I've been asked this before.

With what several of us have known for nearly two weeks my answer is still 90%.

It will be an eff-up of monumental proportions if we fail to get it done.

Jerry Colquit said every time he talked with Gruden that he would light up when Tennessee would come up.

I love what he is saying!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Oldvol75]

Leap year?

Never

 

[tnvols72]

Babyavi does. He got it in his iPhone while moving between the Haslam's box and his spot in the cheap seats.

That's some funny stuff right there.

 

[RagingOrange]

Never

But it was one. And so is 2012.

Gruden 2012

Wow. This might actually happen.

Since we're discussing it, possible/likely Gruden assistant coaches...

Jim Zorn: A member of the Jon Gruden coaching tree. Zorn is likely to get the ax or move on with Gruden due to the play of Chiefs QB Matt Cassell.

Jay Gruden: Bengals are in a free fall and Jay's (Jon's brother) NFL stock might be falling.

Dick Jauron: Another member of Gruden's coaching tree. Ties to Haslam. DC of the Browns.

Brad Childress: Also a member of the Browns staff with ties to Haslam. A member of the Mike Holmgren coaching tree that Gruden is from.

Bill Callahan: Former Raiders head coach and offensive coordinator under Jon Gruden. Familiar with the college game from his time at Nebraska.

Others: Marty Mornhinweg, Rob Ryan (good friends), and Steve Spagnuolo.

 

[SaluteToTheHill]

Wow. This might actually happen.

My grandad used to say, mites grow on a chicken's ass. Book it!!

 

[tnvols72]

If anyone wants to see Dooley coach his last game as a Vol I have 4 tickets together under face value posted in ticket forum.

You sir are not a VFL ... You just might want to give them away. That's what I did

[JayVols]

Me too. I walked down the aisle at my wedding to Sweet Child of Mine.

You're married????????:cray:

 

[Wilson27]

HAHAHA! Someone just called in to talk to Colquit and acted like they were Barbara and said he was dumb as hell that precious would be coaching at UT for 25 years and THAT might not be long enough

IMHO, not a single one of these guys will be a part of the new staff. Bates and Morris are the probable names..........IMHO

 

[knucklehead_vol]

Looking good people.

 

[xXRockyTopXx]

Leap year?

Never

Actually, it was a leap year according to wiki as well as the year the Great Red Spot of Jupiter was discovered.

They weren't acting, that was really her.
