Official Jon Gruden Thread XLIII

Petition * Joe DiPietro: Fire John Currie * Change.org

I'd like to see this happen Volnation.

 

[UTVolinExile]

What have you heard about Gruden?

I've heard he's 10 feet tall and shoots fireballs from his eyes and great bolts of lightning from his arse.

 

[Grand Vol]

Sober. Friend. You know that point when you need to re-evaluate what’s real and what is not? Foolish.

Well, I was trying to be polite and attribute your comments to intoxication. But now I see they are nothing more than immaturity.

Glad we got that cleared up.

I’d like to apologize as well. When I reported info, I named the names of the mid level boosters, the one man within the AD and even a BOT member. I’ve read texts with my own eyes and spoke to second hand informed people in person. I’m a die hard Vol fan who grew up with season tickets. I fully believed we were getting gruden. I’m sorry that hasn’t happened and until we get a new AD it will not happen.

Can you ask those you know what else we can do please? Is there a list of people we should call and express our feelings to?
Can the Haslam's really ever be overthrown?

 

[UTVolinExile]

Perhaps repeat step 2?

Nope, independent analysis confirms initial results.

Me too. Lol.

Jimmy call me buster Hyams reporting Tennessee has reached out to Cindy Gruden to gauge her interest in coaching the vols.

She only has 2 less wins against ranked opponents than Florida's new coach.

 

[OrangeSwarm22]

Who cares?

Was it rude of me to ask? Is it possible your source doesn't exist or is just isn't really all that connected?

 

[JFreak]

Go read some of Knucklevols posts. He's personally attacked different posters tonight.

I don't agree with what Bray2miton said, but Knuckle got a taste of his own medicine.

knuckle has been making personal attacks against multiple people for weeks now. "Connected" people don't act like that.

 

[LittleDTO]

I don’t believe Currie survives this. He lied to many boosters and also former players. He is a lame duck AD now. I’m willing to bet that we hear of an effort to fire Currie very soon.

 

[VolArmy74]

The haslams haven’t got a clue how to bring back football glory!!! See Cleveland Browns if you want proof

The man who played for General Neyland and has given a couple of hundred million dollars to UT doesn't own the Browns. His son does. Big Jim is the man who is constantly accused of being an old power monger who loves throwing 10s of millions of dollars at UT to make sure it's mediocre.

Jimmy is the owner of the Browns. He only gives UT 5-10 million dollars a year most years. He's the one who can't get the Browns winning. It's a real shame because they were winning at the highest level before he bought them.

Bill, the Gov of Tennessee, is the head of the BoT and gives the University around 2 million per year last I saw. He's Big Jim's younger son.

 

[wildorange]

Lyle is probably laughing his @ss off at us right now.

He has nothing to laugh about except collecting money. He better spend wisely, it would take another moron AD to him. I don't know if Currie has a twin or not.:rock:

 

[volsarelife1]

Yep and then he acts all holier than thou and whines when somebody attacks him.

Your source was right.

Currie had his man.

 

[knoxswim890]

Firing someone is always complicated.

All I can say is, what I've been saying, we need continue to express ourselves. We're being heard more now than ever before.

Completely agree with the bolded portion. Today made that all the more evident.

 

[Jake]

Jake. I need a beer, buddy.

Come on, brother!!! I’ve saved you a seat!!

 

[TitanicVolz]

Ask a source.

That sh*t was funny,I don't care how old u are😂😂😂😂

 

[LittleDTO]

Has Gruden Told Tennessee NO or is there any chance he will be next Coach ?

I think there is little chance it happens now unless Currie is fired or is castrated of power.

 

[JFreak]

Nope, independent analysis confirms initial results.

I don't always agree with the information you bring here, but at least you do it with a level of professionalism and maturity that is to be expected. A few more could probably learn from you.

 

[VolsFreak18]

I've never quite got the hatred for them. They are a big part of the reason we have what we have at UT, beyond athletics. They are not to blame for Gruden not taking the job either. My gosh, he's paying the entire Jones buyout and lent his resources to court Gruden. People are basically like "give us your xxx millions of dollars and stay away Haslam family."

So just because they donate lots of money they should control everything? That sounds like dirty scratch my back and I'll scratch yours politics to me. They absolutely should stay away from all athletic involvement. Let people that were hired to do their job do it. The issue here is that we seem to have wasted two weeks to hire this bozo when we could have actually been performing a legit coaching search.

This is going to get good. Booster war. Surely we suspend the coaching search till the war is over.

This^ Idk how you can go around lying about something like this. Especially to boosters and VFLs

Hopefully in the next day or two...or sooner.

No. No "unless". Just no.
