the longer this goes on ,the more revealing it is with who has been hired if you look at the list of coaches that was being named as the top picks or the people we have supposedly talked to,they are eliminating themselves over time and at some point there will only be one standing, I seriously think it's John gruden he's the only one on the list that hasn't denied the tennessee job

I think you're wrong, man. At the very least, I think you're making an Uneducated Guess. Heh.

The NCAA Bylaws are the "rules" we're talking about, particularly Article 11, "Conduct and Employment of Athletics Personnel."

I just read it through in its entirety. There seems to be no prohibition to Gruden's ESPN employment and his UT employment overlapping, as long as it is properly reported and documented.

Here's one applicable section of Article 11:

So not only can Jon Gruden be employed by ESPN (TV or radio program), he can also continue to endorse Hooters, Corona, and other business enterprises, as long as he notifies the University of those obligations and they are consistent with UT's policies concerning outside employment. Note that the University reportedly does not approve of the Hooters or Corona links, because they don't want scantily clad (orange and white clad, no less) women and alcohol to be directly connected to UT's image. But that's between UT and Gruden; the NCAA by-law does not prohibit it.

This element of Article 11 specifically allows Gruden to be paid for work outside of UT:

Here's the one element of the By-Laws that may require coordination between UT and the NCAA. It does not explicitly address TV reporting, is geared toward print media, but the spirit of the rule may require coordination:

Other than that, I see nothing that would in any way apply to Gruden working for ESPN for a few more weeks.

So, UneducatedGuess, what rule book were you talking about?

Too long, didn't read, but I trust you.

Boom!

This was one of the two items that I passed on last night - someone at UT in charge of maintenance and equipment - had indicated that they were getting the field ready for an announcement.

Don't be surprised if that getting ready doesn't include some sort of set that looks like a tv set FNM ( bw ) Just saying.

My grudeon just moved a lil

If it falls that far, and it won't...I'm done. I won't support another mid major hire.

I'm not going to give my tacit approval for the status quo.

Me either. I can’t take another 5-10 years of this uninspired, lackluster football. The husband wants to buy richmond spiders tickets and if it’s anyone other than Gruden or Patterson, I’ll be there on Saturdays.

“If true” and noooo word today at all.. no leaks controlled or otherwise This screams it was Mullen and blew up

So my prayer that it couldn't get any worse was not only not answered, but was rebuffed with a resounding oh yes it can
 
Like Boro said, enjoy the ride. I really thought the leaks would have started by now. I mainly based that on an announcement today. I was wrong about the leaks, but I'm still all Gruden. Nothing has changed.

The leaks have started a la knox media reporting no hires/announcments today.

Its the way they work.
