Official Jon Gruden Thread XLIII

[Vol-in-Bham]

Hyams is reporting that UTAD didn't contact or offer Schiano a contract

"I am told Tennessee was going to have a press conference tonight to announce the hiring of Schiano but canceled it due to protests. Unsure if it will be rescheduled tomorrow or if the deal has fallen through. One prominent booster wasn't happy with Schiano hire."

Twitter

Plenty of action on Haynesworth's Twitter lol..

Why does anyone believe Gruden at this point. 4 years ago and now, you have the same "insiders" saying it is done, and we are left sucking hind tit?
Why believe anyone?

How the F he expect to explain that bs when it is reported an MOU has been signed and we now owe GS buyout money??

Sexton trying to seek compensation out of UT now for backing out. Haha. Haslams are done and so is Currie.

God I hope so. That would be the blessing in disguise.

BS. Anyone with common sense knows Currie tried to do this Schiano deal. He thought we’d deal with it and he thought we’d go quietly.

I have no idea if this is true or not however I gotta believe it might be........this whole crap show doesn't make sense.

I know that Gruden is not an option, but I hope Freak will allow these threads until the next coach is hired, at least.

These will be an interesting few weeks coming up and I shudder to think about the FF.

Here come the vultures

You have to expect that if you cause such a big stink.

Why gruden will not give us he's no or he's interested? I just got to know something so I can get behind another coach in waiting. I really really want him here but almost hiring dumb*** has never worried.

He isn't reporting this on his Twitter account. Where you hearing this?

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

FYI, don’t believe ANYTHING from the Washington Post, their reputation and accuracy is worse than the National Enquirer, been sued many times. Retracted dozens of stories. Sad, but that is the ‘media’ of today.

Not saying he is innocent or not. If he is, shame on the laziness of the media for not doing enough checking. If he is guilty, he deserves any and all hatred and vitriol coming his way.

All that to say, Grude on. Is the threads going to continue??? Hope so

You don’t believe unsealed court documents that are available for public viewing just because the Washington Post reported on it????

 

[CoachClick]

Still shocked there has been no announcement or statement from the UTAD.

That should be grounds for firing alone.

 

[NAILS]

At best, Currie was acting as a Haslam tool under duress. At worst, he was actively trying to make this travesty happen.

So, it was Bammers fault last time and Currie/Haslam fault this time?

 

[AvgJoeVolfan]

I would rather have no coach as opposed to Schiavno (or whatever his covering up criminal charges name is).

 

[knucklehead_vol]

you need some?

Sure do!

No secret I wanted David as AD But I wanted to give John the benefit of the doubt. I thought John's personality might be able to effect what we needed. After today he and Davenport must be fired or resign. I am begging you all to turn the passion brought to bare against this hire to removing them. I have been talking for the last few hours to other boosters, former players, and friends in the AD and the outrage is universal. what has transpired today is inexcusable and we can't let up. They are unfit for the jobs they have and unfit for Tennessee. What happened today no matter how bad it looks or hurts it is a win for the good guys. I have never been more proud to be a Volunteer.

 

[10ecVol]

Is there any connection or history between David Blackburn and Gruden? Think this has been asked before.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

Perfect!

 

[IM4TN]

Here come the vultures

Funny how these pretentious ***** feel the need to ride in here on their high horses, roll back on their fat a**** and criticize us for something that's none of their freakin business.

 

[aredfox28]

Ok, when we wanted Blackburn and got Currie, was that Haslam's pick too?

Yeppers... haslam needs to go... he single handedly has ruined UT football

 

[vavolfan6]

BS. Anyone with common sense knows Currie tried to do this Schiano deal. He thought we’d deal with it and he thought we’d go quietly.

Wasn't it said Currie was known to be a "My way or the highway" type of guy??

That sh*** ain't gonna work here in Knoxville. The fan base will come after your a** if you start that..
