So let me get this straight. One mention of Eric Berry as a former Vol and the fact that he had an orange pen has the entire Volnation on Gruden watch. I remember there were lots of Vol fans saying they had reliable sources that said Peyton was going to the Titans too. In the end, it was just a bunch of people trying to break a story without facts.

Yeah... Jason La Canfora got those NFL.com, NFL Network and CBS Sports gigs by making stuff up and hoping to be the first to break the news. :thumbsup:

I remember alot of Vol/titans fans wanting this to happen, but not alot of people saying it was a lock.

basically everyone here was joking about the EB stuff.

I have no idea if it will happen, but I hope it happens.

Ok. So was not on grudens Tampa staff. That name was thrown out there by someone that obviously didn't know what they were talking about

Yes bad info. I read an article about Morris and Gus Malzahn. The story is that Morris took over the high school program that Art Briles left. They didn't win much his first year and people weren't happy. He sought offensive advice from Malzahn in Arkansas and they became friends. Obviously both became successful and I think Malzahn may have recommended him when he left Tulsa.

You were on the wrong side of things then too. My sources always told me that Peyton was going to Denver. :p

Eric Berry comment means nothing, but the pen; the pen is sacred info. Gruden is definately coming. :twocents:

"No deals are done"

"Just answering a question as best I could based on my sniffing around."

"my suspicion is the UT job might prove more attractive in some ways."

Says he doesn't have anything firm---yet.

$1.3 million seems like a lot for a coordinator with that resume. I wonder if even that is true.

Yes, true. His rise was VERY quick like Malzahn. Swinney hired him from Tulsa and after his first year, he was getting offers from other schools. Clemson had to pay to keep him.
