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.
From what people are telling me, Tennessee doesn't seem to be pursuing him as much as everyone has thought and implied the last couple of weeks.
I believe some third party people pursued or explored Gruden as early as late October. I don't think those third party people and Hart are pursuing him at this point.
I honestly don't know what happened to change the third party people's mind in their pursuit of Gruden.
