Official Jon Gruden Thread IX

[GmanTN]

If someone thought the Chizik presser was funny when a shoe was tossed at Chiziks head, moonshine jars are much harder, the Beav better wear a helmet if it happens.














Zero chance of Golden being hired, just throwing that out there.

 

[FalcoVol]

If what was posted earlier was true, that stuff would have come out long ago when other teams or schools have shown interest in Jon.

I do not believe anything in that novel.

Agreed. I think the CDD dismissal and the final Tampa Bay payment have caused the current timeline. Jmo.

There are three things in a southern mans life that will cause him to make the worst decisions of his life:

Money
Women
And college football

 

[Int'lVOLofMystery]

[VolMaster14]

Why is that a problem. If you take him at his word than multiple sources are saying the same thing. If not than you discount it.

I for one am all in until its all out

Tic F'n Toc bishez!

 

[theFallGuy]

Token interview IMO.

sure hope so

 

[onevol74]

To answer the questions sent: I read the forum daily. I've been a member for about 11 months. I've had nothing useful to contribute til today. I cut and pasted a note from a friend who worked for Lamonte. He is full of himself as most sports agents are. He's also never given me bad info. He also thinks Gruden is a genius, but better suited for the pros. He is not a Vol, or Vol fan, but also has no axe to grind. I just asked him if he could see if there was a deal. He says there is not. Take it or leave it. I am not pro or anti Gruden. I hope we get a great coach. If it's Gruden, I hope he fares well too of course.

The only problem with this avenue of thinking is that Peyton Manning did not pick up the phone to call Bob Lamonte. He called Jon Gruden.

I have screwed up all three at once at times too! :birgits_giggle:

Don't see it....hell if we are gonna do stupid crap like this..at least take a swing at Stoops

 

[northknoxvol]

Just sitting here watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade thinking it would be epic for Jon Gruden to announce on a UT float!

 

[volatil]

We have amendments to the constitution being posted in here now.

 

[UTBasketball2]

That would be my vote but you can't say that with 100per certainty

Look, I know someone in Grudens family. I know how Gruden is, and it's not the stuck up prick the poster was trying to make him out to be. I'm not going to ask the family member anything about the Gruden to UT stuff because it none of my business. Just rest easy.

 

[Orangeslice13]

You must be bored to waste your time making this up. Bob may keep the teams he knows gruden has zero interest in at bay so gruden doesn't waste his time but you better believe gruden has giving him a list of teams that he has serious interest in and that those better make it to his desk to make final call. To say zero coaching jobs have made it to him is a lie. Especially this one. He has talked to tn folks on multiple occasions. Bob can't keep Peyton and haslam from gruden. I still have to believe it when I see it and don't trust some of these wild rumors on her but there is a lot of money and power moving around to make a splash. Maybe it won't be gruden but someone big will come with tht type of money in the table

I've seen pics of my guy talking to Gru recently. Tifwiw

Yes sir. Tickery tock. The mother f'ing mouse went up the clock

The only problem with this avenue of thinking is that Peyton Manning did not pick up the phone to call Bob Lamonte. He called Jon Gruden.

The problem with your thinking is that it is not fact that Peyton has even been involved.

getting close to the next thread

Now I can agree with that 100%...:good!:

 

[BruinVol]

What? I honestly think it does.... A lot of info flying around and a lot of folks are trying to follow along and determine what part is true and what part is not true...


The thread is a thread to discuss the possibility that we may be lucky enough to get JG and that includes the possibility that we may not (hopefully we will though).....


I would tend to think there be an official Jon Gruden hired thread when/if it takes place...


I can honestly say that I have received different info in the past that didn't match what was said on here and it actually came true...


Most of us want to believe as much as anyone else, but everyone is not getting the same info..

Again let me say I am in no way saying anybody's info is wrong or in accurate, but folks should be aloud to question it and attempt to make their on decisions...:hi:


My info may very well be wrong and I hope it is, but I am still hearing that he hasn't crossed the final "T" or dotted last "I", but he is strongly considering it and most likely will..


I have also heard there are other candidates in play too.... That could be inaccurate also

Cut

How does Ainge knowing or not knowing make any difference in the final outcome ??

I have asked the same questions as you but it only matters to the posters willingness to admit they were wrong on a small piece of the puzzle that is irrelevant when considering the final outcome here best I can tell

 

[northknoxvol]

Go Gruden Go Gruden Go!

 

[BP4Prez]

The problem with your thinking is that it is not fact that Peyton has even been involved.

Brent Hubbs said Manning and Gruden had been in contact. Hubbs wouldn't have said that if he didn't know it.

 

[cutnitclose]

Alright all...Keep the hope alive... hopefully we will get JG soon.... Time to go give food out to folks less fortunate than most.....

Happy Turkey day all......

Good chance that was a bammer. Injecting stuff like Jon's agent may think "Saban would beat him early and often".

 

[SDV]

What time is the Arky presser announcing Gruden on Saturday?

 

[northknoxvol]

Peyton Manning continuing to score for his Vols!
