[tastycar]

Been gone since this morning....I assume it is business as usual....disaster, good news, downhill mood, back uphill...have I missed anything good?

Our doom = soon if true.

Guess someone better call Jon and Cindy Gruden and tell them some guy on Vol Nation said they werent coming. You let them know and I will call Hart, Haslem, Peyton and Ergen and make sure they get their money back. Thanks bro.

Reverse psychology? Hmmm...I like it!

 

[SandoVOL]

ESPN must give lessons on how to respond to these questions!

*Urban Meyer's First Denial, November 19th

After the initial Eleven Warriors report, the question had to be put directly to Urban Meyer with regards to him becoming the next coach at Ohio State. At least ESPN had him address it publicly (not so on the next Saturday as you'll see later). Broadcast partner Dave Pasch asked Meyer about the OSU reports during the Michigan/Nebraska game. Here's what Urban had to say via SBNation:

"Well there's no truth to that," Meyer said of the rumors. "I know it's that time of year, but I have not been offered any job and I have certainly not accepted any job."

If a press conference or announcement is to happen tomorrow would it be announced in advance or be impromptu? Would the media be notified much in advance to be there where it would leak and we would know it is happening? Just curious...I don't know how these things go....
Thanks..

They can have a PC with as little as an hour notice. Most of the media has people on standby just in case.

It is unusual for the national media to not be given a heads up though.

Usually there is a press release the day before a big PC, but not always.

Dooley 2.1

Would do better but not good enough. Don't need a coach who did well with Temple is a weaker conference. I'm done settling.

 

[RagingOrange]

Honestly, the "soon" comments became comical after 2 or 3 days, as did the posters who continue saying it.

Soon.

I honestly believe Hart has succeeded with controlling media. Today is proof positive.

His plan is back in place. Ultimately, we will get what we want. He has masterfully handled the Knoxville radio idiots so it will be easier to transition Gruden when time appropriate.

We wouldn't need much recruiting time. Graham is working on it. Gruden would simply close it.

Hart knows how the saban/Alabama denial worked out.

Usually a couple of hours as I understand it.

Press conference rumors that have since been debunked (for the most part), and the usual emotional roller coaster that is VN.

That's about it.
