The fact that you are as sure he was not fired as Boro is that he was fired, may be as outlandish and harmful to your own credibilty as you claim it to be to Boro's.

As for most of us on this board, we could care less when he was told, as long as he IS GONE

I don't seek any "credibility," because I'm not claiming to have "inside information." I'm only taking info from others and using common sense.

And I can tell you that from what I've heard from others that I trust a lot more than the people in this thread, Dooley absolutely wasn't fired after the MSU game, because the decision still hadn't even been fully reached as recently as this past week. There are a lot of people around here that are sorely lacking in common sense.

Also, it's couldn't care less. Good lord, that's the number one misused phrase in the English language.

They aren't my sources. Me saying I have sources would be like you claiming to have sources, because you heard all this crap from DTO, boro, etc.

Nothing I said in that post was contradictory. You're just used to people saying any information they hear is from an "insider."

I thought the same thing when I read that.

Thrasher, I understand your skepticism because I share some of it, but you do sound very contradictory here.

I can see this is difficult, so I'll highlight it for you guys.

If you don't mind, who are these people you trust?

This is what I don't understand:

For this whole notion to be so devoid of common sense, he has been here for a long time. He hasn't been the normal hit and run troll type. That puzzles me a bit, but contrarians like to be contrary, I guess.

Of the people on these boards, slice and sparty are the only ones I put any stock in. If I knew where these other guys got their info, or who they are, I might trust them.

I think you can put some trust in oldvol, too, but I don't really know the extent of his relationships inside the program.

I am not disputing or doubting what anyone says. Also, I have not given up. Just let me play devil's advocate before some FF troll comes over here and does it first.

Jay Graham could also be 100% sure he will be back next season because he is 100% sure Dooley will be back.

Discuss...

IMO, the only way Jay Graham could know he is back is if he has been assured Dooley is coming back as well.

I admit I have been around here almost since the beginning and were hearing the same thing these guys are still hearing. Now all I hear is that Gruden is not even a possibility at this point and that Dooleys termination is not 100%. This from people in the AD, boosters, former and current players, and co workers with family that are involved in the decision making process. Take it for what its worth, I still am 100% on board with Gruden coming, but am more concerned Dooley could be retained than ever.

I just think the assertion that Graham has already talked to a replacement for the coach that was told he is fired 3 or 4 weeks ago he is not going to be retained. I heard the same thing, not faulting anyone, but the reason in my mind cannot allow me to believe this. It would have leaked to a major source or to the players and if the players know it would be everywhere.

I'm sorry but ill listen to OV, SBV, Jay, and others before skeeter on this issue. Skeeter works in the AD, but the AD has had nothing to do with the Gruden talks so I don't see him knowing what Gruden wants and doesn't want. How would he know that Gruden doesn't want to be here "in our current state" when it's a heck of alot better than last time? Sorry I'm just not buying it until one of the more reliable people say otherwise. Heck, he was the one who started the 48 hours stuff only to be completely wrong.

Like I said, my previous post does not reflect my belief. I just wanted to put that out there before someone came in here and went about it like this.

"Dooleys are coach! Rabblerabblerabble! Jay Graham knows! Rabblerabblerabble! Source? Source? Source? Rabblerabblerabble! You guys been trolled!

So, you can't understand why what you said sounds like you're citing your own sources? All you said was "from what I've heard from others." That's pretty vague, and we are in a rumors and speculation thread.

I get the common sense part. On the face of it, Gruden to UT is a long shot.

What? I never once said Gruden was a pipe dream and that there was 0% chance he was coming. I'm here for legitimate info, I just choose to take everything for what it's worth in here, unlike the majority, who cling to the "insiders" every word like it is gospel.

I can see why every reasonable poster gets run out of this thread so quickly. It's like a loony bin in here on some days. Especially if no good "news" has come out within 24 hours.

That Thrash is really "on" today....LOL. There's an old saying that says "Since light travels faster than sound, some people appear bright until you hear them speak". We hear 'ya Thrash.
