Would there be potential issues with Tressel and how he lost his job @ OSU since we are under a pretty tight probation?

Would go against what hart said up front hiring no one with baggage which also includes Davis..They would have to get permission from NCAA..never happen in my opinion but a guy a few pages back said he was listening to ESPN radio on xm radio ch 84 that said Tennessee was going to drop a bomb in an hour..I just said that the only bombs would be Tressel or Gruden
 
Guys I want Gruden more than anyone.But why would he allow his agent come out and say he wasn't intrested?Wouldn't it be better for him to not just say anything?

His Agent said it was a fantasy (that a deal had been made if I am not mistaken). Could of been contracts problems etc. If he accepted a contract from UT or even showed legitimate interest Tampa might have grounds to cancel his final payments.

Just a theory.
 
Fortunately, I'm on the record (see my post history) as sticking with the Gruden through this whole mess. Our football savior cometh soon!

All part of negotiating the fine details IMO. Look at it as publically pushing for what you want.
 
Just wanted to post that I'm still here and have never given up hope. Not a bandwagon Grude thread follower.

If we end up being the last one without a coach and no Gruden we are effffffed.

Yes, and it will be the second time in three years where we were shopping a Top-10 coaching job and drew flies. Somebody better take notice if that happens.
 
I dont know if anyone can confirm what that guy posted about ESPN. The XM channel 84 feed is the NATIONAL ESPN programming, not local Chattanooga talk.

I would think this ESPN rumor of a "bomb" would have been corroborated by a few others by now.

I agree...I'm just asking if anyone else heard it. I'm definitely not trying to drop a bomb cause I gots nothing.
 
Im still in for Gruden but reading others post and working this puzzle , if not Gruden I feel It will be better and a big deal and (none of these names we are hearing) JMO.
 
All this bomb talk... these are 'bombs':

GRUDEN
DUNGY
COWHER
TOMLIN
P. MANNING
BELICHICK
SABAN

Suddenly Gruden doesn't seem like such a long shot.
 
Ok thanx.Thought I read somewhere he received his final payment in 11.Man it's hard to get concrete info.Think I will hire a PI!I hope we get Gruden!Would be epic to hear Hyams,Hubbs&Rucker explain their idiotic journalism!
