Arkansas will be announcing their new head coach, Jim Zorn, tomorrow at 4pm. TIFWIW, confirmed by sources close to the program (and by close, I mean a Wal-Mart greeter in Fayetteville)

I'd be wary of trusting someone who just signed up this month and claims to have info.

It's more likely a pig that got out of his pen and is trolling just to see people react.

Never know. Some may have been around as a guest. Never know some may be connected and you wouldn't know. Never know some may have family or friends within the AD for more than 20 years.

Spoke with La Canfora

"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.

Meaning Gruden has not agreed to a deal?

Found some big fish feeding in the back of Sams, just wouldn't bite artificials. Threw the boat at em, it was fun to watch though.

My family has a place on McGuire...I've wasted plenty of hours tossing anything I could find in the boat.

Always a good time. Always.

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.

My gosh man think about it. He had an orange pen. Do you see now?

Gruden would bring instant recruits to UT Football. Money wise I see it being more like a Petrino hire. 1. He has proven he can win 2. He can be paid much less (especially right now) 3. This will save money from Dooley's buyout 4. Can have ethics clause in his contract 5. Can have incentives built in for premier bowl wins 6. If we want ethics keep Dooley 7. If we want to win with low cost hire Petrino 8. He would rather be at UT than UK 9. Fans want a coach who can win 10. AD wants fans in the seats that = $$$ 11. After UT has success they will forget about ethics because lets face it, we would rather win than worry about some fling the coach had somewhere else 12. Winning at UT = forgiveness and if he behaves we can have the last laugh.

There were some on here saying it but there were lots more that called in on the radio saying they had inside info on Peyton, and they are saying the same thing about Gruden.

Just pathetic how many people out there are willing to make up stories. I thought this stuff ended in grade school!

So a few people calling into a radio station = alot?

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:

Dude, please don't tell me that his quotes are anything but first hand knowledge. Nothing he said implied that he talked to Jon or anyone close to him. In fact, he spoke as if he knew nothing of Gruden's plans at all. He only stated that he thought the Tennessee job would be the most appealing to him. That's not facts guys. That's just speculation.
