Official Jon Gruden Thread XLIV

[tastycar]

I'm ready to punch someone in the mouth!

Love your passion. PW was ON FIRE yesterday and I loved it! It's what we need, for sure!!

There are only a couple of things I can think of right now that are positive about getting Gundy (if we actually wind up getting him)

1. We would get a coach that Florida couldn’t pusuade to come to Gainesville.

2. It’s not Greg Schiano.

Living down here in the middle of gator country has been gut wrenching the past few days, and years!

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

Hey, suggestion. A thread titled “Grudenites” so we can keep up the party even without Gruden?

 

[LAVol1]

If that was true then Fulmer would have went and met Gundy not Currie

Haven't seen anything that said Currie met with Gundy, have you?

 

[IM4TN]

Where’s all y’all OG Grudenite T-Shirts 😂😂😂

On order you want one?

If nothing more than PR to calm the fans down and squash the Gruden to UT thing for good, would it not make sense to make him a reasonable offer. Prove to the fans it was made with full effort, and make him say no. That type of closure would help the next coach I would think. If we hire Gundy (once again not a bad hire), Currie gets the ax a week later, and then it comes out we could have landed Gruden with an offer that was reasonable, A LOT of fans are going to automatically dislike Gundy simply because he isn’t Gruden.

No, it would be sunday all over again since you may have 5 to 10,000 people protesting at the admin building.

I have been all Gruden from the start, but at some point we need to realize that just because we want him as our coach doesn't mean he wants to do it. Also does not lessen his love for UT. Just a life choice we all make every day, everyone has to do whats best for them and their family.

Blah blah blah.

I realized before this thread ever got going he might not want any part of college or NFL football. Are you telling me you just now realized that? Lulz.

He's said multiple times he wanted to coach again, and...you know what, you know all the rest.

You believe what you want.

I might be a minority of one but I would love get Herm Edwards. He gets up every day at 4 A.M. prays and starts his day. A very ethical man he would be a great role model and if need be father figure for our young men. Could see him going in a home and making quite an impression. With all this going for him I think he could kill it in recruiting. NFL player,coach and somewhat known sports broadcasting figure. I know he isn't even on the radar but with him interviewing at Az.St. just wanted to get it out. Herm to the Hill, could do worst and with our recent history probably will.

Yep

 

[Hawkpilot]

I like your post, but the absence of so many posters here tonight is concerning. I've emailed DiPietro 3 times today. Not finished. Woof. Woof.

Probably all hands on deck..every able body to fight the deciding battle

 

[LoudOrange]

They replaced that with Jake Fromm played in the little league World Series

Did you know that David Pollack and David Greene were teammates in Pop Warner football?

 

[midtnvol2]

Off subject but what's everyone doing this evening?

I'm babysitting this fire where I'm finishing cleaning up a building I recently finished deconstructing.

About to get hungry.

About another hour and I'll be able to leave it until morning.

Looks relaxing. Wished my youngest son could. Getting ready for his last HS football game this friday in the Tennessee 5A state championship.

You are dead to me.

Not. Even. Funny.

Gundy is an incredible coach.
This isn't even debatable and shouldn't be a question. In some respects he's more proven than Gruden.

I really don't think he's coming. I think this was a PR move to give Currie and Haslam more time to pull another coach in. But we'll see, I'd be very happy if wrong.

 

[tastycar]

Yep

That. Hair. In. That. Pic.

Gloriously unapologetic.

 

[revjayp]

Tennessee-you gotta coach somewhere.

 

[JFreak]

Yup

That's a guy I could get behind for the reasons you posted. He would have to have a really good OC. He's a former DB and no doubt would be great DB coach. He would give players tough love and they would respect him.

So you’ll be in my neck of the woods. Enjoy.

Imagine this is your head...

I know, I know...I am sorry...but I do like that gif🤣

 

[Vol_atile]

Guys. Sometimes a narrative gets written on here and it takes a life upon it's on.

Peyton knew and he helped. The guy was recommended.

I lost all respect for him if this is true. I hope he gets the gains he's sought.

 

[patrick]

I don't believe it.

Peyton all about Haslam
