Huge news today with this. Doesn't sound like a guy with a foot out the door

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

What are Gruden percentages today?

For me,it's 101%.

btw, I apologize for missing your point about the Grudiver..That's an awesome name.:rock:

 

[volfan411]

LOL I can see Basilio saying "yeah, I like that Jim Mora guy ... when he had that meltdown where he yelled 'Playoffs?!' He'd be great at UT!"

That was his Dad wasn't it?

 

[turnuptheVOLtage]

Him and CJG.

Hey man, what possessed you to make the disastrous JSF your avi?

 

[WriterVol]

Well hope is very important and eventually will lead to your faith increasing..Give it more time(couldn't resist,sorry).

No, you're right. Every time I allow myself some faith, one of these pesky outsiders comes up with a logical rebuttal. Darn the logic.

I wavered at one point when my best contact told me it was over, but has since shown me "the light".

I am never 100% until it happens but we can call it >99 and Harts presser confirmed a LOT of what I have been saying.

Find anyone that said "Smart is Harts guy, if he has his way Smart will be the next HC" and think about the merits of things they have said. I think his presser spoke volumes about who here knows somewhat what is going on and who has the best sources. Just saying.

Yes.

 

[BruinVol]

Have you ever known me to sugar coat anything? LOL.

Your my kind of guy. Matter of fact take or leave it kind of person.

SIAP but timeline for Gruden announcement is November 30 (earliest) to December 18 (latest).

I've heard that Gruden may finish out the MNF schedule before an announcement

Why are you posting two completely contradictory things within minutes of each other?

 

[jasonvol18]

I've been told it's probably not going to happen until after the last MNF broadcast.

Just dont see how we can afford to wait that long. Unless the days its announced he has his full staff on standby and ready to recruit.

 

[vol4eva]

I imagine the timeline has moved up. I can't see this lasting until the final MNF.

Jon Gruden's potential 'MNF' replacement; Irish-Tide extravaganza - Richard Deitsch - SI.com

 

[jasonvol18]

[WesternKyVol]

December 18 is BEFORE Gruden's last broadcast.

It's good to see kids going to bat for their coaches. And telling when they don't.

 

[bcartervol98]

I will go out on a limb and say it will be announced before the last MNF, ans as I and many have said for a couple days now will surround the immediate time-frame of the SECCG. Just my opinion, not based on specific info, but I bet its right

 

[BruinVol]

The 18th is after

It very well may happen that way....and it won't matter. The recruiting floodgates will open no matter when it happens.

I believe we'll get an announcement before then, but he may not start until after MNF.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

No, you're right. Every time I allow myself some faith, one of these pesky outsiders comes up with a logical rebuttal. Darn the logic.

I understand what you're saying and why you have a hard time having faith.

LOL I can see Basilio saying "yeah, I like that Jim Mora guy ... when he had that meltdown where he yelled 'Playoffs?!' He'd be great at UT!"

That was Jim Mora Jr's dad.

It will not go until the end of MNF.

An announcement at least.

 

[OCIVol]

The last MNF broadcast is December 17. Hence the December 18 date.

Tony talking about how verbally abusive Dooley was to females in the AD office

 

[BruinVol]

December 18 is BEFORE Gruden's last broadcast.

[OCIVol]

December 18 is BEFORE Gruden's last broadcast.
