Official Jon Gruden Thread XV

[cutnitclose]

I'll pitch in a 100.00 to help the birds keep Strong if that tell me what to send it...:hi:

That is what it would cost me to go to the O&W game anyway.... Might as well use it to try to help save us from 5 more years of SEC bottom feeding..:hi:

 

[OddBallVol]

Ya, I've go at least 272 friends in the AD, none of which you know. So that would add up to 734 just between you and me.

Most go to your bar, don't they Jake?

GUYS

REEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLaaaaaaaaaaaxxxxxx

Refer to my earlier post if you'd like. It's just coming a lot sooner than I thought/was told. Things are still 'right'. Don't panic. The result is worth the wait

!

 

[Blackmarket803]

You got a link or any proof to validate this DA statement ? Prove to the volnation he was never coming Or STFU ....just my thoughts from the farm...trolls are like coyotes ..good for nothing serve no purpose.....move along now junior jump over in the cooking thread

He's got an uncle that's a booster or some bull***t like that so he thinks he has airtight info. Just put him on ignore, he's like that kid in 3rd grade that you want to knock the hell out of because he's such a pompous @$$hole.

 

[fhod_dj_x]

Okay, I'm sorry but pretending that Strong would generate the same excitement as Gruden if not for Gruden reports earlier is A TOTAL JOKE. Superbowl winner or 1-time Big East Champ (only 8 teams now btw). Widely respected NFL coach or 3 year coach out of Louisville. DO NOT make this comparison again, you sound plain stupid

It looks like Internet service was restored in the Appalachians.

Can you tell us maybe how long we're looking at?

 

[perico]

No gloating just excited. You heading to the corner??

Why are you in this thread?

 

[docbarnes]

One thing you can say about Dave Hart he believes in lots of foreplay.

Has too. Look at his dye job!

 

[MtnVol]

First Obama, Now Strong...Starting to think those Mayans were on to something...

 

[voldawgforever]

So I guess this is the 'real close' news that's going to make us puke or cry.

Next up, Strong gets a pay raise and stays put or it's a false rumor and Gruden gets hired later this week.

Don't you just love it when a well thought out plan comes together!

~All Gruden!!~

I'll faint like a little girl.

Great recruiter, has SEC and head coaching experience. Defender guy, which is what we have been lacking, and he automatically gets the attention of big time recruits. The only people not excited are the ones who actually believed the Gruden mess.

His recruiting classes at louisville, how were they ranked? Serious, I haven't looked it up. I don't give him tons of credit for UF because 1. It's florida, tons of talent 2. at the time UF was up and Miami and FSU down.

If we can't out recruit Bama, Georgia, Florida and South Carolina...we won't be making up any ground. jmo.

I'll support him like I did Dooley, which means, I'll believe it when I see it. It's not very exciting and I'd feel that way regardless of Gruden.

We basically have an idea of who's been talked to, I'm just not impressed.

 

[BearCat204]

I like this.

Why? Hart wasn't there

 

[golf]

I like this.

Hart was at FSU when Bama hired Saban.

 

[bdavis72@comcast.]

Just checked Charlie Strong's Facebook Fanpage... Looks like they're saying their goodbyes to him. Do not like what I'm seeing. But will still believe it's Gruden until they announce someone else!

what about those Louisville rival rankings the last 3 years screams great recruiter??

 

[MilesMcEver]

Maybe Strong will come in on his horse and take hart back to Louisville with him.

 

[cutnitclose]

You need to go back and check his recruiting rankings as a head coach.

I am not sure where the great recruiter info is from either..

 

[jbeard82]

Nope. I'm going to be more passive aggressive than that.

If this happens to take place, which I don't believe it will, I'm a Texas A&M fan until serious changes are made in the AD.

Good! Can I open the door for you so we can all watch you leave?

 

[247VOL365]

I disagree, he wasnt a homerun hire then either. Given the situation then I would have been okay with it though.

Bad choice of words on my part. I should say that if Charlie Strong was in 2009 what he is today we would be pretty much unanimously on board with it

 

[Dylecho]

Guys if we wanted Strong he would've been here by now....

Wouldn't shock me if he was giving Arkansas serious consideration given that that's where he's from. I think the reason we're seeing this avalanche of "Strong is the frontrunner" speculation now is because the Arky job is off the table now. Strong is now ready to tell us yes after weighing his options and having his other preferred landing place removed. Looks to me like he had serious offers from both and couldn't choose between them. Jerry Jones and the Walton boys chose for him, so here we are.

 

[vmivol00]

You need to go back and check his recruiting rankings as a head coach.

You can also go back and read how he blamed racism for why he wasn't offered a HC position.

You might also be to read about how Foley at UF passed over him multiple times for a HC position.

Not good enough for UF, but good enough for UT

Committed to mediocrity because its just easier (and cheaper)

 

[voldawgforever]

There are more. I'VE SEEN THEM

 

[ThatGringo]

Well go to the realist thread then.

Exactly. This here is Fantasyland, by god! Now, take you and your hippie reality friends and get off our land!

And cut your damn hair

Most go to your bar, don't they Jake?

Ya, they drive down here every afternoon.
