From a PR standpoint it better be Gruden or someone huge. Since they haven't denied it, it is building everything up for a huge hire. If someone like Golden is announced.there will be more than mattresses burning...

I agree, but I thought it was going to be somebody big and out trotted Derek Dooley.

100% confident on Gruden but not Friday. It may leak out this weekend. I think Gruden will be hired next week or after MNF.

I just thought is appropriate to point out to all of you that, according to Find People, Lookup Phone Numbers, Run Background Checks, Access Public Records | USSearch.com, there are actually four people named "Jon Gruden" in the the United States alone and another 26 people named "John Gruden."

So, just because our AD is rumored to have a tentative deal, we can't be fully assured he got the right one. Normally, I would be more optimistic, but after the last couple of hires, I have no choice but to be cautious.

How many of them are coaches or color analysts? Does it say?

Let me get this straight. Kentucky has hired a coach, Arkansas is set to announce Peterson it looks like. Auburn hiring Petrino rumors by the end of the week are gaining traction.

But Hart is in town all week, going to basketball games, not a care in the world. Oh wait, he is waiting until New York at the HOF conference lol. We either have our guy inked or we have the dumbest AD in all if D1 football! I know which I am betting on.

And people take the word of Hyams as gospel. It astounds me that the man still has a job.

If there are truth to the rumors about the TB payment, that would be one reason for a delay, albeit a brief one. And if the comments in the recent post about Gruden's bowl broadcasting schedule is accurate, they might be negotiating their way out of his ESPN contract. It is quite possible that contract contains complicated escape language, even if he was to leave for a college gig.

I don't know, but it's not unreasonable to assume their is something we simply aren't aware of.

True. He might not have any leverage with ESPN on the radio gigs.

Odds are, if Hart offered the job to Jon Gruden, then it's Jon Gruden we are thinking of. Am I missing something?

If Gruden were the choice and he had "agreed" to take the job the fact that it hasn't been announced and that we are in fact interviewing other coaches should let everyone know the truth on JG and UT.

Agreed if its a FACT that hart is going to interview others. As closed as his info has been I wouldn't bet that as fact for sure.
