Official Jon Gruden Thread X

[babyavi]

Must have been... did he die or just never was :good!:

Why are you calling me out? I'm no OG!

 

[voltnh]

If we hire Dykes I'm driving to San Fran and jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge.

There is bound to be a bridge of sufficient height closer than San Fran...

 

[babyavi]

So you believe Hubbs over your friend?

I dont know what to believe. I HATE HUBBS.

 

[ajvol01]

Petrino 2.25 million 5 years(clause in contract that he owes UT 7.5 million if he leaves before 5 years).

Chavis DC 1.25 million for 4 years.

Tony Franklin OC 1 million for 4 years.

Tee Martin WR

Kevin Steele LB

Jay Graham RB

Sam Pittman OL

Dale Jones DB

Dan Brooks DL

epper:

same Tony Franklin that got Tuberville fired at Auburn? lol:

 

[babyavi]

This is the greatest smokescreen in UT history. Why can't it be like it was when Fulmer was here?

 

[LebanonVolunteer]

If it doesnt happen because of Hart then he needs to be fired ASAP!

Or maybe Dave Hart is doing the smart thing and protecting UT from a total disaster. Just because you throw more money at a guy does not make him the best choice.

 

[volatil]

I sure did. Alot of good options out there. I am considering all of them.

Contract terms are not just options. I thought you had a source or something.

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

Side point but does anybody remember what quarter that Smokey ran out on the field today. I wanted to show my little girl on dvr but her patience ran thin. She wanted to watch Max & Ruby.

You were in here talking about being in the booth with Haslam, Manning, ect. You catch heck in here because you don't own up to anything.

 

[Volfan615]

Season is over, so FF trolls coming in like rats! :banghead2:


.

I've never seen it like this in here...

 

[Weezer]

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but what I'm getting is people with sources in the AD say Gruden's a no go while people with sources from the booster side are still saying done deal? Of course, these are all alleged sources. Some believe Hart is opposed to giving in to the boosters because he wants to show he's in control. In this scenario, could someone please explain to me the purpose of pissing off people who can get you fired by putting their checkbooks away? All this back and forth is confusing so could someone please clarify if I'm reading the situation correctly?

Would you mind considering them in their threads?

Hubbs latest...

The more Hubbs shoots down the likelihood Gruden is the next coach, the more confidence I have in the OGs. Hubbs has been inconsistent with his story which is not good for his credibility.

 

[Coastypop]

Insider?, NO WAY. I get hated on left and right. I dont know anything. I just like discussion with fellow Vol Fans. I want Gruden, but Hubbs is usually on about these things.

That was not your claim earlier especially with the "Dave" text thing

 

[Chilmonty]

Describe this forum in one picture. ^Ding Ding Ding Winner!

[crparker21]

If it's Monday it has to be Gruden.

Or somebody out of coaching.

 

[1725gatorhater]

Waiting for Hubbs to confirm it.

Seems like I heard this before only to get my hopes up. Is TOS volquest? What the heck is this TOS thing?

 

[vol494]

I dont know what to believe. I HATE HUBBS.

If you have some doubt. I believe I'd get ol Dave on the text and see what's up? I mean that in no way offensive, just an observation.

 

[VFL1]

Think about some of the new names that the Knoxville "sports media" is throwing out. Many just don't make any sense at all.

Mike Gundy? He's coaching at his alma mater. T. Boone Pickens likes him and will beat anybody's offer.

David Shaw? He's also coaching at his alma mater. He's a west coast guy having great success in an area he loves and is comfortable. Sure, money talks but Shaw isn't your typical mercenary coach. Not happening.

Golden? You think the administration made a public announcement this week about an extra $6 million a year so they could hire Al Golden?

And we are the crazy ones for saying that Gruden is the guy?

Nice try Hubbs & Hyams. Your playbook is easier to read than Sal Sunseri's. Downplaying a candidate who both of you know has at least spoken to us and adopting a "throw a random name out there" approach is just plain stupid.

The local media scene is an absolute joke and I am sick of these puppets hurting fan morale. Looking forward to their articles about the Gruden hire.

 

[voltnh]

Watching this aTm game....Sumlin just needs to take a knee and go home.

On the other hand, Mizzou has some ball girls that don't look half bad...

 

[Mike4Vols]

I'm ignoring my first person. Wanna guess who it is? Dude is driving me nuts...

Its BS. Hart can have his dog and pony show, but he will not make a move without the heads nodding in unison.

Well hart better get his stuff together quick if he wants to save this recruiting class. So he better stop pissing off the big booster and get that contract signed asap.

Agreed. Why can't we all agree that no one has a clue what is really going on and what may be the true reasons driving the decisions made by Dave Hart. You know, it is just possible that he may doing his job well, unlike the last guy.
