Nah, I only argued a few points. I haven't really said anything about Dooleys job status since around Florida game. I may be a supporter, but I'm not an idiot.

I may be mistaken, but I think my initial stance was 7-5 gave him a 50 pct chance. Which is not exactly going out on a limb.

One day Jay, you will learn to take me the right way. A sarcastic SOB who is not really serious.

If I have taken your comments the wrong way, I sincerely apologize. It happens.
 
I run a business that has regular dealings with a lot of the members of the athletic department and have since CPF was winning football games. Some of those business relationships have become friendships over the years. That's about all I will say except I lost a lot of my best contacts when Hart cleaned house in the department, but several remain.

So something along sales then? Sport equip? Etc. I'm not asking about contacts or the name of business. Just curious is all. Thank you either way.
 
In spite of the Browns horrible mismanagement and horrible record, they have one of the most valuable franchises in the NFL (or all of sports for that matter. They did just get bought for a billion dollars.

Their fan base is ravenous.

Don't get too caught up on the exact numbers. The fact that the exact numbers are being tinkered with is what is important. Enjoy the ride.

I hope we don't get into a bidding war with the Browns!

Wouldn't that be like getting in a bidding war with yourself? It's clear the Haslams are a MAJOR factor behind this...can't see them doing something like that. My (completely useless) feeling is that if they want Gruden, they want him for UT...not the Browns.

Cant' remember where I heard/read it, but someone said Gruden would be even bigger at UT than in the NFL...and I think that's accurate. Very few names would be "bigger" than him in CFB.
 
It really shouldn't be an ecred debate. We bring info to you and you decide if you want to believe it or not. It's not a pissing match and I can take some ribbing for things that don't go accordingly but at the end of he day I'm just passing along information that I can decipher as believable based on where it came from. Just passing along info; don't get hung up on who was right/who was wrong. I think it's plenty evident who on VN brings usable information and who is just trolling for laughs.

Well said. I don't think there's any question that the base will be in excess of $5M and incentives likely exceed up to $6M.

Time will tell and right now I'm just soaking it all up. Hope all come true and we'll hash out the details of the battlefield afterwards.
