Official Jon Gruden Thread VI

[EZE]

Appears today is shot. Unless Dooley finds a way to lose to Vandy before Saturday which I think he might be capable of doing.

I am sure he and Sal have already started on the defensive game plan, so I think your citeria has been met.

Most true vets would feel awkward about taking the free meal that a lot of places are offering (though I only saw a TV commercial from Golden Corral)?
Perhaps I misunderstood, or perhaps I'd have to be a vet to understand.

"true vets"?

Per Erik Ainge: Dooley won't be officially fired until Hart has his replacement signed to contract. That is still being processed. When that happens Dooley will be fired and the new coach will be announced. Ainge says Hart doesn't want what happened on the last two hires where the coach left before we had the new coach signed. As a result the first replacement choices backed out and we were left with not so desirable choices (Kiffen and Dooley).

Found this in the FF. The bolded part makes me wonder if we are in the process of getting a deal done soon.

Yep, that is what I heard him say that this morning.

He fell on the floor and hurt his hip again which led to tears

Tyler Bray stole one of his crutches and threw it off the balcony onto a car.

I'm a veteran and saw the add for Applebee's offer. Even though I have my VA medical card (with Picture ID) to show proof, it would feel awkward to come in and freeload, even though they offer it. I'd say most vets would feel this way, too.

I thought you had to show Military ID for that?

Little Debbie snack cakes now has Cocoa Cremes, which are a King Don or Ding Dong on steroids of tastyness. Puts the old Hostess snack to shame.

En route to Kroger now!

you might be right but it just seems that the Gruden to (insert NFL or NCAA team here) rumors are so rampant that no smoke screen is needed and could actually backfire.

Ya, like sitting and smelling your own fart.

While the rest of the crowd sits around and smells it too...in a locked unvented room.

Did danomite ever post this morning?

I think he said he was meeting with someone later and will inform us with what he finds out.

It was something your wife said while we were in bed together. She said we had the same build. From the waist up I imagine.

 

[ajvol01]

I see you remodeled the garage.

Must've cost you hundreds

Hop-along Cassidy. Bow and arrow. Very Weird.

There is no way that we would have a guy in place when Kiffin left because he left on his own. He made the decision in less than a day and was gone. Couldn't do anything about it.

I remember listening to Jimmy Sexton do his weekly interview here in Memphis about a day before (or maybe even same day), and he said that Kiffin had not been contacted nor was a candidate for USC. Now, I know he wouldn't confirm it as true, but I don't think he would lie either. My guess is the Kiffin deal went rather quickly. Kiffin knew his answer when they offered.

Now that's how you walk into a meeting!!!

 

[Spartacavolus]

you don't mean communists, do you Sammy?

 

[knucklehead_vol]

Proper Entrance!

Thank you. So whats goin on? I saw a Cowher reference. Brother Boro is back in tha saddle. Jake is opening a licker sto. Smokey is smokey...

 

[VolGee4]

you might be right but it just seems that the Gruden to (insert NFL or NCAA team here) rumors are so rampant that no smoke screen is needed and could actually backfire.

Well, from what some have suggested is that Gruden is the one creating the NFL rumors to deflect the attention at UT. Those rumors are coming from somewhere.

 

[ajvol01]

Provo, Spain?

Oh for god-dahh-dahh! Who is it, Mister Sinilindin?!

 

[knucklehead_vol]

Now that's how you walk into a meeting!!!

Whats up Jake?

 

[VOLorNuttin]

i told him I wouldn't. Somebody already through out the name and I hinted at it's correctness.
That allows me to keep my word.

And I'm not trolling or looking for cred. You don't see me doing much more than opining in these threads.

Surprised you haven't heard the travel destination today. Like I said, its ridiculous, but we'll talk to any big name that will give us an ear for an hour right now.

Jim McElwain is not a ridiculous name...not even one the fanbase would want.

 

[cjbongoinstructor]

I want to believe I really do (just like I did for Peyton as a Titan) but can someone explain why Ainge would say Gruden is a definite no go? Are you telling me message board sources are better than our former QB?
