I'm just giving you a hard time. You can ride as often or as infrequently as you prefer.

I am sure I will lose all rational thought and ride the Gruden rumor train as a true believer again. I have several times over the last month. Right now I am in recovery until the next big juicy rumor comes.

All throughout this process I have stated that high dollar boosters don't always have any clue what is going on and in fact I have been burned already a few weeks ago in this ordeal. With that being said this is what I was just told from a very high booster.

Yesterday he told me he was confident just as most on here are but this morning he is getting word that golden will be the guy. Surprisingly he was pretty excited about golden as he always felt gruden was a tough get.


Do I think he is plugged into to exactly where this process is ??? I don't but I did think its worth noting that huge boosters don't think it's happening now after being confident yesterday.

Yeah let's hire another coach with a losing record in weaker conferences. That'd be a horrible hire and I put strong, Patterson and Mullen above him anyday.

What a _____ letdown that would be (there is no adjective that could possibly describe it).

I'm not a recruiting guru, so anything I say will be speculation. Ron Zook is a lights out recruiter, as are Tee and Jay Graham. I would have to believe he knows recruiting is the lifeblood of this program, and will plan his staff accordingly.

Also I don't believe you can overstate how much cache Grudens name will carry, especially this year in recruiting. The publicity surrounding this will unfathomable.

You think Tee is coming?? I missed it if tat was mentioned before. This thread is hard to keep up with.

I heard that from him this morning here in Nashville, then when Mark Howard said if it isn't Gruden what does the list look like and Hyams started stammering around before finally saying, well I'd hate to get into a list with Dooley still sitting as coach. HAHAHAHA!! You aren't getting into a list because THERE IS NO LIST and you know it. Good try HiYams.

What is the etiquette for using someone elses posted image for my new Avi?

I haven't changed it in 6 years and "I'm ready for a change"

Speaking of staff members, now that appears to be known that he has been contacting staff, who all do we think could that involve. Any new faces that we haven't heard yet?

Ooo Zook is the front runner for the DC, my bad I thought Morris was the leader from all the reports.. That makes sense from a recruting standpoint, and I 100% agree about the Gruden's name.

I tell you what the Al Golden rumors are just as crazy as the Todd Graham rumors. Why in the hell would Tennessee consider another coach with a losing record (38-45)? If they do they all should be fired on the hill.

Quote Effed up... In relation to Gruden liking TN tax system as opposed to SD...

Idk about that. I he likes the taxes on TN and that entices him to want to come here, then why on earth would SD appeal to him? Seems like a direct contradiction
