Excellent post. I am an attorney, and I have drafted MOUs. This is a good summary. As other posters have mentioned, MOUs are technically enforceable, depending on the language in the document. However, they are very rarely litigated, and as 1world mentioned, parties typically abide by their provisions. They really are foundational to the hiring process.

With respect to Gruden's MOU, there is no way for us to know at this point just how enforceable it would be, because we don't know what kind of language it contains in that regard. I CAN say that Dooley would not have to be publicly terminated in order for the MOU to be effective as between UT and JG.

IMO, the fact that our OGs are convinced a MOU has been executed is significant. Once these things are signed, it is rare that the hire does not go through. Thanks to all you guys who have been bringing the behind-the-scenes info and who haven't backed down! :hi:

I was trying to preach this last night, to no avail. Coaches won't sign an MOU unless they intend to take the job.
 
This is insane...I go to bed last night and it is HIGH TIMES CENTRAL...GOOD NEWS...wake up this morning and it is wavering. Now what in the bloody hell is all of this Al Golden talk. NOOOOOOOO...this is too much to take...let it be January already!

I don't post very often (obviously) but have been lurking in these Gruden threads like a madman. My productivity has been severely limited. I'd like to express my sincere gratitude to all of those that have taken the time to share their information. It is truly appreciated.

Like many in the forum, I was initially skeptical about the possibility of Gruden coaching our beloved Vols but as time has passed have now bought in.

Love the camaraderie in these threads. Keep the info coming. Cannot wait to see CJG in that orange tie at the presser!

GBO!!!!
 
The amount of money being thrown around is just plain stupid. If they fail the football team will close down like Hostes just did.
