OK guys and gals. Just got an update from my dad. Here's the deal. IF we see DD resign/fired by Monday, that's our signal that the deal has been made with Gruden. If DD is still here after Monday, we still haven't made the deal. Dooley WILL NOT step down/be fired this week unless the agreement has been made between JG and UT. Dooley will remain the coach until we have our guy. There will be no interim while a search is going on. If we have an interim named, then it's 100% done with JG. We will be making a "strong push" this weekend. The powers that be want this deal done by this weekend.

The strong push could be anything. I don't know what was meant by that. (More $, blowing up JG's agent's phone, etc.)

If the deal is not in place this week, it doesn't mean there will not be one. It does mean that it is much less likely though because we are going all in between now and then. We are throwing the bank at him.

If there is no "big fish" available in time, we are stuck with DD until one is available, even next year if it comes down to it.

Let's hope this "big push" works...

I stand behind this information 100%. My dad is hearing it DIRECTLY from those with their hands in the middle of it all...

This answers my next question.
If Dooley is let go in the next few days does that= Gruden is our next head coach?
OV, Jay, Boro what is your take?

I'm still sticking to my story. I will be very surprised if Dooley coaches next week.
Even if he does, it doesn't change the fact that he is fired.

All indications are is that Gruden will be the coach next year.

On another note. I would be surprised if Jimmy Cheek survives. Haslam doesn't like him and his son is now Governor. Cheek hired Dave Hart so that dynamic could get interesting.

Im sorry but I have trouble believing Gruden wont agree to the deal unless the spot is open. If what people are saying is true, and Dooley is gonma be gone but just waiting fpr replacement. I believe any coach would go for a job that says, "hey our Coach is as good as gone we just need you to agree to a deal before we fire him". Just my opinion, but that is what I feel. If Dooley is really just waiting to be fired Gruden wouldnt wait.

No matter what has or will be done the team gave their all today and if you are Hart this shows Dooley has not lost the team. If a deal is finished then we will see a change this weekend, if there is not a deal we will not see a change this weekend.

Maybe they know a new coach is one the way and are excited, trying to impress him?

Dooley on if he was surprised SoCar passed so well vs. Vols: "Well, every team that we've played has."

Talk about a loser mentality.

Just my personal opinion. That is permitted, correct?

Of that is fine, but disappointing. Why the change of opinion? I thought, correct me if I'm wrong, that you thought Dooley was gone next week originally.

DTO, I'm pretty sure what we are hearing is lining up for the most part, no?
