Official Jon Gruden Thread VII

[VolsNUT]

Are you aware that Cuonzo Martin coaches at UT for several months with only a MOU? I believe someone else said Dooley did also. It was the basis for them to get paid until the contract was signed. I would say they had a significant legal effect.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Dooley didn't sign his actual contract until well into summer.

Also, just wanted to say thanks to the insiders. That's the only light at the end of the tunnel that's been this horrible season. I've defended Dooley up until halfway thru this season, but some of the things I've seen him do on the field is mind boggling. I really want to believe Gruden comes back to Rocky Top, but I'm still a bit reserved.

Keeping my fingers crossed! GBO!

The guy that tweeted Clay Tavis just now posted, he said it was a false rumor.

Got it. Tough to keep up in this thread - movin' quick!

that was nicely done!

Wow. A place like that might cause me to start drinking...in a good way.

Come on out!!!

 

[BP4Prez]

No one Gruden visited Webb. Period. 100% confirmed.

He did visit? The no one is throwing me off. Not trying to be a smart a. Thanks.

 

[bcartervol98]

No ONE Gruden??? So...several Grudens did?

Lol. The fact that they have not visited Webb is the fact I am the most sure of.

Carter.... you hear anything today?

Just the way I put it. It's ridiculous to think this is true. High schoolers started a rumor that got legs due to repetition.

Long time lurker here. Great news today! And thanks to all who brought us the info. I’ve enjoyed the comic banter in between as well.

Y’all have me darn near 100% convinced that King Gruden will be here.

That being said, does anyone else find the above twitter exchange odd? Dooley’s oldest son attends Webb (IIRC), and from what I’ve gathered Gruden would certainly have enough respect to avoid that really awkward moment between the outgoing family and the incoming family.

I believe I have seen you on TD.

 

[FalcoVol]

He certainly looks like one.

Who cares about him, I'm hungry now.

 

[Wilson27]

Not trying to throw water on anything, but Todd Kelly, Jr..................yes that Kelly's son (football player at Webb) says Gruden's kids did NOT visit so who knows.

I honestly never thought they did

 

[UTodd01]

If his kids were going to attend a private school I'm sure it would be Catholic - not Webb.

They are Roman Catholics after all.

I proposed a party at my bar earlier today...

...ill provide one free keg of Town Pump Pail Ale and I'll hit Ol Smokey Moonshine up for TN orange tshirts with their logo and my logo on it...for everyone that shows up.

I'm a man of my word!!!!

All I ask is that y'all take care of my bartender...Candace!!

 

[fishing Vol]

Sounds like Pueblo, then. Appreciate it a lot!

I sold the steel for the McKenzie Lawson facility (there's not a lot of steel since it was primarily a concrete structure). But I plan on taking a tour soon before the building is fully finished and turned over. Maybe I'll get lucky and catch Gruden roaming the halls.

It was Pueblo. I don't remember the mill, but I will keep looking if you would like me to. As far as I know there are still TN people out there.

Evraz steel mill. They are still looking for people.

I believe I have seen you on TD.

I'm not sure what TD is?

 

[Tennessee_JED]

I believe I have seen you on TD.

Is Jake your actual name? Next time I'm up in Ft. Collins I may have to stop by. I'll wear something orange

 

[gordonr24]

You had to make a username to tell me that? :good!: :hi:

 

[VolsFanJC]

Six days before my birthday. What a F'n gift. And I'm not even being funny or exaggerating. I couldn't think of a better birthday present than to have Jon Gruden as our new HC!!!

Three days before mine. I agree, best present I could have hoped for!

 

[TN Jed]

That would be me on TD:lol:

Nice screen name! Another deadhead?

Nope. I signed up here last weekend when the Fire CDD movement took full storm.

 

[BP4Prez]

I've got to stop reading this thread before going to bed. I end up just sitting here and refreshing instead.

Three days before mine. I agree, best present I could have hoped for!

My birthday was earlier in the month and when my wife asked me what I wanted I said "if Gruden becomes our head coach, it'll be my birthday present and Christmas present. It's really the only thing I want." She bought me some nice beer and I drank it while scrolling through these threads.
