Official Jon Gruden Thread VIII

Not open for further replies.
I'm so confident that Gruden won't be at Arkansas that I'm willing to pull a Mitt Romney and wager $10k with any razorback fan that wants that action.

I'm not one to make any kind of bet but you probably have a pretty safe bet there.:thumbsup:
 
Spending other people's money is easy. 90% of VN could be congressmen. We have a good cause, so ante up! I'm all in!
 
The Arkansas threads are more confident than ours. They are 155% sure they have him. I am so confused.

they've been pushing the announcement back since the spring. On Monday, they said the announcement would be Tues or Wed, when it didn't happen Tues, they said Wed or Thurs... Now its Friday, smh...
 
Why would Gruden go to Arkansas? What motives would he have?

I don't know. That's what I am saying. Why are they so confident? And don't say they're delusional. (While that may be the case) I just want to know if they have "sources" like ours. :hi:
 
I just think anyone saying they are 100% sure is a bit silly. I mean unless you are Gruden or Hart you don't really know, do you?

To say it OBVIOUSLY isn't going to happen is overconfident, IMO.

I'm not saying I'm 100% that Gruden will be at UT by any means, because you're right none of us know for sure. But these Arkansas rumors are so ridiculous and unfounded to me. I am very confident that Jon isn't going to Arkansas. It doesn't make any logical sense IMO.

My opinion is Larry, DP and others with connections to the UTAD are sharing the information they are being given.

IMO very smart of Dave Hart to only share the information that he wants to get out.

By doing this he is controlling the story, instead of having to constantly answer questions and do damage control about the situation.

Right now there is no situation to discuss - because the UTAD has not "officially" made a decision.

I agree with what you said, but I would add that (if he is being clever) Hart is not likely to leak the name of any serious candidate. Therefore, if your usual AD sources are naming name, those names are not serious candidates.
 
Didn't Mort or someone on the radio say that Arky fans were basically kookoo for CoaCoa Puffs for thinking that Gruden was considering Arkansas?
 
Gameday-eve interlude: I think Wayne Brady could coach the Vols tomorrow and we'd have a better chance of winning than with Dooley at the helm.
 
Hi smokey. Haven't been on the past cple days, but did check the cliff notes, prior to coming here. Latest posts are split between pro / con Gruden. Mind summarizing what the main guys are saying, assuming you have heard anything recent? Thanks :)

Good post, and you're probably right. Boro has said multiple times that this isn't the same AD and that Hart has plugged up the leaks in the AD. Many people have said that they would expect misdirection from the AD. LWS, DP, and Skeet all are connected with the AD, which adds up with what people with connections with boosters and other camps are saying. The AD won't make or pay for this decision, even Ainge said that. We'll find out.

I recommend reading post #118 in the cliff notes thread.:salute:

I haven't been able to find anything reasonable at all to back up Gruden to Arkansas rumors. Meanwhile you have guys from ESPN like Chris Mortenson saying Gruden either goes to UT or the NFL. And on top of it all, Gruden to Arkansas just doesn't make any logical sense if you ask me.
