Official Jon Gruden Thread VII

[pattiycake]

I've been eating diet pills and yogurt like mad since he posted that pic! :yikes:

Out of likes again (Help Freak!) but too funny! :rofl:

 

[AllVolinGA]

Top, while you may be depressed, that pic you posted makes me nauseous.

 

[VolMaster14]

I am sure you would never look like that Ms. Pattiycake!

She's the hottest girl I've never seen

Heck of a reason to go to Colorado now!

Lots of reasons to go. Their tourism industry is about to see a spike. Wonder if Peyton voted Yea.

It's the test the NCAA give new coaches to ensure they know the rules. Also, if I'm not mistaken, Billy Gillespie at UK coached under a MOU, before they fired him.

I believe that is correct- almost 2 years under an MOU. Again, just a simplified contract. Coach gets paid just the same.

Dude is a savvy businessman. He probably invested in a grow operation out there and is gearing up to do some commercial shoots.

Haha cheer up . . . I think your 'stros got a hell of an up and coming manager in Bo Porter.

I hope so.

They gave him a hell of a roster to work with. They're looking to break records. Most consecutive seasons finishing last. They've already accomplished back to back seasons!

Pattiy can only dream of looking like that.

His interest is more than just business. Wonder why he chose Denver.

Decent ownership and a strong GM can bring the worst roster imaginable back from the pits of hell in a few years time. Seen it first hand.

Its that alluring eye! :yes:

Careful. The self righteous will flame. Then they will go grab another coors light.

This is what is ridiculous about these anecdotes:

I am saying, sometimes these things don't lead to finalized contracts.

People keep saying things like "well this one time a guy worked under one."

and

"This one time it worked and there was a contract."

I never said it couldn't be worked under.

I never said it never works out.

 

[BruinVol]

Is this MOU we are discussing a legally biding agreement???


Before I turn into Doubting Thomas, I will say I have been very encouraged the past few days with the mortenson statements and the other smoke from the NFL side BUT


A MOU is not and cannot be a legally binding document for a job that is not legally an open job.

I am not saying he is getting paid because I am not the one reporting that anyone has signed an MOU. All I can tell you is that an MOU is a legally binding contract. In fact, it is MORE than a verbal agreement, which can be enforceable in certain situations. So, there are legal ramifications if you back out of an MOU. Those ramifications may also be outlined in the MOU. There is not telling how long a formal contract is between a coach and a school- tons of clauses and issues. That takes time to draft, and parties don't have that time to agree and start work. Thus, an MOU is signed and again, it is LEGALLY binding.

Not exactly. A MOU can be legally binding, but not necessarily so. A lot depends on how its drafted and the wording. Things can and do fall apart even with a MOU often with no damages.

 

[AllVolinGA]

Haha...I'm don't participate any more, but I voted YES!!

You gonna have to add a stoner smoking section to your bar before long?

I don't have a dog in this fight.

You do not know the legal status of that job. People resign from jobs at the state level all the and continue to work for weeks and even months after. They do not have to inform the public right away.
