Official Jon Gruden Thread II (merged)

[JAllen18]

Could this be the counter offer

I think Gruden wanted a deal more long term.

 

[wilrob75]

Reliable.

Same source as Shannon?

 

[DocVol]

No problem. It's much bigger than what has been kicked around on here before.

 

[bray8]

can u imagine gruden leading us through the T and pumping our guys up to spank bama and florida. If we get gruden saban is screwed, no more 31 point wins, whats sad is kiffin about outcoached him, i know gruden can outcoach him

 

[VolMaster14]

Those guys being on hand to see that pitiful performance Saturday night made them give the AD a blank check!

 

[hohenfelsvol]

same for me although instead of week(s) I'd say decade(s)

Football season and World Cup

 

[tnvols72]

There have been a couple of UT players from the big town of Spring City

Yes , they I have only been out of the area for 6 years and hopefully this is my last year. Hit me up tnvols1967@aol.com

Love the long term part!!

 

[HausVol]

I think Gruden wanted a deal more long term.

I'm good with it

 

[RagingOrange]

I'm good with it

Ditto.

So should we be thanking Dooley right now?

 

[BearCat204]

Let the recruiting gates open.......

 

[General Jack]

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.

Well, since neither Hamilton or Dooley are involved in the negotiations... I like our odds.

 

[tnvols72]

If this happens and can get Tyler to stay, the QB guru will have him winning the Heisman next year!

Where us he going ? CFL , Arena ? He's not going to the NFL this year

 

[SaluteToTheHill]

I'm not going to get too excited till its official. If that happens I may pee myself.

 

[CaVOLfn]

Doc, since you chose to post that you have to be pretty confident in your source.

 

[VolMaster14]

So should we be thanking Dooley right now?

Already admitted many times I was wrong about CDD and this thread has hypnotized me into wanting Gruden at all.cost.

 

[orange parmejohn]

thats a lot of money but the Vols fanbase will start shelling out immediately if this happens. ill even buy an extra Hint of Orange Tea, myself, at every game i go to.

 

[pattiycake]

Oh lawd!

I don't think may is a possibility. I WILL pee myself! Better put my depends on now.

 

[Doyle Hargraves]

I will get excited when a couple of other insiders back up the latest.

 

[VolMaster14]

Where us he going ? CFL , Arena ? He's not going to the NFL this year

Not in an early round but he would still get drafted and as pissed off as he's been with the fans who knows if he would leave but I think a Gruden hire would make him stay

 

[VolsDeep]

Hart's direct contact with Lamonte has been limited to a handful of discrete conversations, but people associated with UT are doing a lot of the negotiations.

Not trying to insult you, but I just find it hard to believe that if they did happen and were "discrete" that you would know about it and/or post it on volnation for sake of wanting to keep your job.... I hope you're telling the truth though

 

[zach0105]

If true I would be extremely excited to have gruden here.

My concern is why would haslam post up the money for a new coach at ut when he is more than likely going to be hiring a new coach at Cleveland? Would he prefer to pay for gruden to coach for the team he actually own and just dropped $1 bil on?
