Official Jon Gruden Thread IX

[VolMaster14]

How about we give the Arky rumors the respect they deserve and stop talking about them?
What say you?

I agree let's stop talking about Arky but the only thing I'll give them is a big :finger3: those ass hats deserve zero respect!

 

[BigOrangeD]

I think he will just let it ride out until his anouncement to come to UT. He has not dispelled any other rumors I would not expect this one to be either IMO.

That's what I would do just to not have to answer questions about TN.

 

[Fightmaker]

We probably wont hear a public refusal from Gruden to Ark. Wait for smoke to roll under a new candidate and you will know, because I think they make a hire before we do.

 

[RagingOrange]

Said this last night Coasty. Why formally offer AFTER UT fires DD?????? They have had an opening since April.

They mad.

 

[smittysmitt3434]

I like the new one Coasty.

 

[Coastypop]

Morning. Ready to invest another day with you fine folks and the Gruden stakes.

Morning Rockytop how are you today?

 

[govols1864]

I think people need to take the ARKY offer serious. What happens if Gruden demanded more than we are willing to give? ARKY contacted him and gave him what he wanted. ARKY would not just throw out an offer unless Gruden has discussed the position with them.

 

[RockyTopSC]

Offers mean next to nothing. He does have address anything. Hold firm

 

[patrick]

Good morning Gruden-like-type people!!!

Anyone care for a Grudriver???

 

[HausVol]

That's what I would do just to not have to answer questions about TN.

Yes exactly

 

[volatil]

can he address Arkansas without having to address UT? me thinks you won't hear from him until lets say 30 November....

Didn't think about it that way. Good point.

 

[247VOL365]

It is Nuts that Arky waits till this late to offer Gruden... they have had an opening for a year... I think it is a last ditch effort becaus they are fearing what we are going to do

Is this ava better?

I liked Alfred E. Newman, personally

 

[BearCat204]

I just find it odd that "he has already signed a contract with Arky" and they currently still have a head coach.

 

[thebjd]

IF a formal offer was made from Arkansas yesterday as reports say, then IMO he is at the least listening. More importantly it tells me he hasn't accepted a deal here. If he was a done deal here his agent wouldn't currently have any conversations with Arkansas or anybody else IMO.

People are offered deals while under contract all of the time. This makes no sense.

 

[hohenfelsvol]

Still all in until its all out

Just dont see momma meshing with the Hog social scene.

Hope you enjoy the company of trolls as well. Plenty here.

 

[cbbowlingmd]

Sounds like Gruden is going to Arkansas....sucks!

Here's another troll folks.....enjoy him. He'll be gone ..... SOON.

 

[Coastypop]

Exactly Gman! Good morning!

Morning oldvol.. you feeling better?

Unfortunately, there could be a lot of truth to this statement and if true it would put a dent in the credibility of others in here saying an MOU has been signed.

Jon Gruden listening to an Arky offer and an MOU being signed with TN would fit the definition of "mutually exclusive"

 

[1world1love]

For everyone reading this, if you start to think that Gruden may go to Arkansas, I want you to close your eyes and repeat these words to yourself:

"I am a dumbass"

This therapy will be more effective if you can actually find a way to kick your own ass.

You people are forcing me to quote myself. For shame.

Oh, and good morning Grudenfolk.

 

[Oldvol75]

Feeling better today than I have in a while. Good morning to all you Grudes!

 

[247VOL365]

excellent point

 

[VolMaster14]

Tennessee, working behind the scenes getting a deal together. Arkansas going full retard and going public with their "huge" offer. I believe Gruden wants to get paid but he's not coming back into coaching just for money, nor will he move his family somewhere they don't wanna be, just for money. Tennessee will pay him an amount that he likes so that he and his family can come home!

I agree but $$$ talks.
