Jon Gruden: Gruden spoke at the Tennessee coaches' clinic on campus last spring. He is aware of the resources at UT. When Chris Mortensen says that he believes Tennessee would be the only college job Gruden would entertain, I think that's saying something. Mort usually knows something. I once heard Peyton Manning describe Mort as 'the guy that knows you're traded before you know you're traded.' As noted a couple of weeks ago during the Chargers-Broncos' Monday Night Football game, I think Gruden is dying to coach, right now. The question is... does he think he will have an opportunity this off-season at the NFL level? If not, the man loves coaching. I watched him coach 8th grade tight ends at the Manning Passing Academy two years ago. He just loves coaching, so I wouldn't completely rule him out. I have no doubt he misses watching film with a group of offensive coaches. You can only enjoy talking about "Gruden's Grinders" for so long.

Jon Gruden wants to be coaching so badly tonight. He'll think about getting back in after this game tonight. He's dying to compete!
