104.5 the zone had "several" people call in that said they had inside people at UT that told them Peyton was coming to Tennessee.

Several!

And because those people were wrong, you automatically assume the people here are wrong? That is messed up thinking. Just because a+b didn't equal c does not mean d+e=f is wrong also. I don't know you but it seems you are just one of those people who get off on trying to tell everyone else they are wrong and you are right.

Well, why should I listen to your speculation over his? That's what he's paid to do and he actually does have sources and knows people. You're just someone who doesn't believe it. In which case, not sure what you're trying to prove by being on a rumors and speculation forum when you're just trying to tell people it's not going to happen. Seems pretty pointless.

Believe what? What did he say to get you and everyone else all fired up and believing that Gruden is coming? I'm not saying it's not going to happen. BTW- let me hand you back those words you put in my mouth. I actually think it's fairly plausible. At the same time, it's absurdity to take what you guys are using as fuel for your Gruden to Tennessee fire, when there are no facts and absolutely nothing of substance at all.
 
I don't know how you all did it before this thread/speculation forum came along . . . the football forum is an absolute cesspool

Yep...you're starting to bend.

You don't sit back and coach an offense with a QB who has a howitzer, and two thoroughbreds on the outside and hand the ball off 35 times a game. He is playing to his strengths, and just got matched up with the worst defensive coordinator this university has ever seen. Jim Chaney on offense and John Chavis on defense would be playing in Atlanta in December...and it also makes all the sense in the world for the next coach to keep that side of the ball intact-especially if Bray leaves. You have 2 QBs that have been in the system, and understand it, by all accounts. But, that's just my opinion.

I would like to see our QB go under center a little more and use the play action passing game.

And some of the FFF'ers would like to come here and tear down this thread. Could it be that they are so unhappy with anyone else having a good time on VN?
 
I have that feeling that you get when we go up by 21 on some team. There's a confidence, but at the same time there is a fear that we won't pull it off.

I listen to what he says for the same reason I listen to Mel Kiper. Mel Kiper doesn't have facts on who is going where but it's his job to figure out who is most likely to go where. It's La Canfora's job to figure out what coach is going where. I never said it was definitely happening but it's not like he just made it up and made a random guess publicly. Given his job and talking to other people, I'm sure he made his comment based on talking to other people about Gruden. It wouldn't make sense for him to make it up for no reason. If I was a sports writer and believed Chris Petersen would probably prefer moving up to a bigger school like Tennessee, I wouldn't make that comment public without actually hearing something. Otherwise you're just making random stuff up. What's the point of paying a sports writer to make stuff up and throw out random ideas? That's what free forums are for.
 
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.

Thanks for the update!

:lolabove: Diet Coke all over the laptop. Thanks Jake! LOL

I just think it's funny when people jump in late, without having followed this and make all these anti-thread posts.

But it's also funny to watch them progress and eventually fall into the pit.

I'm sick and I need help! And so are all the rest of you!!!!
