Official Jon Gruden Thread VIII

[EZE]

Rough outline of most likely coaching staff and projected salaries:

HC – Gruden – $5M
OC/QB – Shoop – $500K
RB – Graham – $225K
WR – Martin – $300K
OL – Pittman – $275K
TE/ST – Bisaccia – $400K
DC/DB – Morris – $1M
DL – Hobby – $400K
LB – Barry – $400K

Head Coach Salary - $5,000,000
Assistants Salaries - $3,500,000

This leaves us with one additional assistant coach position at roughly $500K/year.

If this comes to fruition, I love the former Vol players on the staff.

My cousin attends CAK. Her dad, my uncle, is one of those who I mentioned before is part of that group that pays well over 40k for their box seats/season tickets. He is connected because of his work to some big names including the Haslems and I had mentioned back in Gruden thread 4 I believe that he was told they were going after Gruden with everything but he hadn't heard of anything being final yet. Well they have text me today that Cindy Gruden is apparently at CAK today. Again, I have no way of confirming this and who knows...could be kids just messing around but just thought I would share. Gruden in 2013!!

I was told the same thing by a friend that teaches there. No idea if true, though.

I am not sure how Gruden could influence the timing of an NCAA investigation wrapping up.

Easy. The UT admin can call up the people handling our case, and start negotiating a punishment.

Colleges will drag their feet for years on these things. Or they can cooperate and get it over with. It is not that complicated.

I am not saying that is what happened, just a theory. You don't find the timing odd at all?

Interesting, because I thought I saw him on the grassy knoll while driving to lunch in Dallas today....

So now he's going to Dallas...can't take anymore lol!

 

[jordan4vols]

They are talking about it on Knoxville radio.

Not at a place where I can listen. What is being said?

Not saying it isn't true but Gruden sightings are all over Twitter and message boards right now. If true then SURELY someone can take a picture!

Our DC would make 500K more than our OC?

See above. I was not aware we had an active appeal process going. Hell for that matter I thought we were through with our LK era punishments.

I think you underestimate the importance of an MOU in coaching.

He did not sign an MOU with Notre Dame, and if he has signed one with us, there is little chance he will breach it.

I'm listening. Could you expound a little more please

 

[cd12]

I think so...

[theutvolunteers]

Just curious - that one of your pics or an internet find?

Looks like that pic was taken on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier.

Not mine. It does look like that though. Just googled throwing gas on a fire.

 

[Cmpugg]

God I hope they keep him.."he just needs more time." :rofl:

John L. Smith keeping hope alive that he

This guy has some classic moments from Michigan St. The one where slapped himself and the one where "the coaches are SCREWIN UP" will never get old. Either of these should have warned Arky that this wouldn't work.

This has turned into a Where's Waldo sequel.

Pretty much what was in that post. My parents are there for the Alcoa game, they are the ones who told me that was being talked about on the radio.

 

[blu_tick]

At this point:
It's time to s__t or get off the pot. Don't
dont piss down my neck and tell me it's
raining.

TN has dropped our pants around our shorts. Let's finish this thing and move forward.

So you want us to piss down your neck and tell you its raining? I'm confused. :loco:

Multiple National Championships.....PRICELESS!!!!!

[triad280]

sweet! you wont say EZE went I meet you over the middle

Didn't know Eric Berry had a Volnaion account...

 

[Hickmc]

Us...paying a million per year for the zooker? never thought I might live to see THAT day.


Apparently, he is good on the D, but not so much as the head coach. Da gators would snickle hard at that one

But no question the man can recruit!!! Left Urban with a loaded Florida Team. Unfortuantely he didn't know what to do with the talent himself....:hi:

 

[jfite9]

Have you seen our defense? Makes it a tougher job...lol

That is exactly my point. Not one journalist reported that we would hear from the NCAA this week, or even that it was possible. Despite all of their "sources".

I know the news folks in KVille are bad, but that is news that they should know and report, because somebody in the AD knew it was going to happen. The NCAA doesn't just call you up and say "we have your results".

 

[EZE]

sweet! you wont say EZE went I meet you over the middle

I wouldn't duck you, bro.

 

[steve328]

I am not sure how Gruden could influence the timing of an NCAA investigation wrapping up.

Seriously doubt that he could. I'd think that UTAD could influence them to wrap it up, though.

 

[VolFan32]

The timing of the NCAA annoucement is odd. Usually you'll hear at least a day in advance that they've made a decision, but most of us didn't know a thing about it until it already hit the press. I'm with one love on this.

check it.
