No. You are the second or third guy to get that from my post. Sorry if I was unclear.

I'm solid on what I have been told and who told me. Nothing has changed my mind.

But info has become scarce as this all comes together, and I'm not sure I'd believe anything I was told right now without multiple verifications. There is a lot of disinformation, or simply bad information floating around right now.

Cool...that's the way I have felt with the most recent information as well. All of my friends have been throwing the recent articles at me "proving" Gruden isn't coming. I told them to be patient and wait until we announce emphatically that Gruden is not our coach (not going to happen IMO) or until we announce our new HC. My friends and co-workers are beginning to exhaust me.

People hate on Hart but I bet after he makes the hire, people will be loving him and thinking he's awesome for creating such a smokescreen. We'll see!

To see if Zook would join him if Gruden accepted our job or any job?

He was confident that Gruden will still be in the booth for next year?

Zook isn't going to announce him to the University of Tennessee, even if it were true.

Apparently the Grude was worried about recruiting/rules of NCAA Football. Zook would be a fantastic guy to come in and help that transition for Gruden.

No doubt Zook can recruit. He'd be a better DC than Morris, IMO (although i'd piss my pants to get either).

Ainge said UT was interviewing Golden today..........Sigh!!! I mean really....

Hopefully he's just going through the motions and interviewing guys that arent legit candidates. If this was 3 yrs ago, before the Dooley hire I would be all for a Golden, Fedora or Jones type if we couldnt get Chucky, but after the Dooley disaster we cant take any more chances. Golden or Fedora could be the next big time coach but we arent in position to wait and figure it out. V, B!

Whenever I began to get enough info to get on the Gruden train there was one point that was repeated to me over and over:

Gruden wanted it all done his way. Period. That included the fact that he didn't want it to appear that he was pushing Dooley out. TIFWIW

Thus the appearance that must be given to the "public" that he does not has a lot of interest in the position and distance created from the firing

------------------------------------------

Here's what I'll tell ya-
1) Don't believe anything local media tells ya ( they either haven't had a clue from the start or they are part of a massive cover up.....for many reasons I believe it's the cover up)
2) I've had just as much info both ways so I can't say for certain which way this will go.
3) Based on what I know and decifering all the info it's either:
Gruden was the man and something happened at last minute or
Gruden is still the guy and nothing has changed.

Based on a plethora of information.... like I said before
I'm thinking Gruden til its not.

Everyone is on pins and needles because of the way Hart is operating, but this is how a real AD operates. Hambone was not a real AD, We do not have a whole lot to go on as to how Hart will make his hires. All we can do is trust that Hart knows what is best for our program, because he is paid to do what is best for our program, and there are many people there to hold him accountable.

I was hating him yesterday after Hyams said JG was mad because of lack of pursuit on UTs part. I blasted him a couple of times on here. After thinking about it, what is he suppose to do if he is negotiations with JG?? He can't come out and squash this rumor. He can't come out and acknowledge it either. He is in a pickle.

@Lex

You mentioned that JG wanted it done his way. IYO, has it been?

I'm not on the rollercoaster...if that helps you any. When I heard about the list the AD started to leak about two weeks ago, I knew that the BS was coming in full force.
