Official Jon Gruden Thread XV

[Donger]

Strong is a rock star waiting to happen!!!
There is a reason he's on every Ads list of top 3. We'd be damn lucky to have him.

Every? Sure wasn't on the Gators...

Doesnt strong wear a visor.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Having said that..... my school will find a way to screw it up.

Agreed, I understand in some people's eyes he is not Gruden but he is no chump.

I've been off work for 2 week's, got hooked on this, now have to go back tonight. Not sure if i'll be able to do my job???

Still ain't as bad as CoastyPop. CoastyPop, I laughed for five minutes. Post of the year.

Strong is my second. So was Obama. I hope it is just a Grumer.

I laughed out loud...hard!!!

Is that why he lost to U Conn?

 

[MrVol]

Why do we care about Rick Hart?

I think he is leaving but not sure if he's coming here. What do you think Slice?

 

[Donger]

This keeps showing up that I orginally posted this ...I simply quoted another poster and asked the question??????????????

Yeah it's saying I did it too for some reason... I just answered that his son WAS the AD at UT-C, he's not anymore, but I still think he could have been one of the sources

 

[InVOLuntary]

Strong will continue the current UT tradition of losing to bama uf uga and uscjr.

And leave the university a multi-millionaire in three years. I am no Charlie Strong hater but if this administration can't see this program needs a homerun hire it deserves what it gets. I had high hopes for Hart because he came from a program that struggled with up and comers for several years before realizing the formula for championship football. It looks like Hart never learned that formula.

I am not one of those that thinks Jon Gruden was our only answer but I did think they needed to spend some serious money on a coach to show the fans that they were serious about getting in the big time football business. If Hart introduces Strong as the next coach at the University of Tennessee, I'll be convinced they are not serious. I will still suport my beloved Vols but it will be from afar.

well looks like we are gonna be a basketball school!!! oh well we are snakebit!!

 

[Obsessed]

On Twitter all I keep finding is fans saying they believe/know he is leaving. They are upset because of something he said in a presser. Trying to locate the presser and get more details.

Thanks patti. I'd like to see it too

Gruden is a rock star.

I watched the presser. Believe me, he is leaving.

 

[bcartervol98]

Strong announcement Wednesday

Could be tomorrow or Thursday too. Hart will move quickly once he has his guy sewn up. Not sure how close it is but pretty sure he either has or will be offered first.

Well, so much for those misplaced bananas I saw on the drink aisle.:cray:

Link please

A 36-37 score does not equate to a powerhouse bball school lol.

 

[MrVol]

Strong will continue the current UT tradition of losing to bama uf uga and uscjr.

Maybe Gruden will want to relocate in 3 years when the next coach is gone.

 

[Stevorino]

This. Would have been a good hire post-Kiffin.

Well said. I sure hope Strong can come in and go gangbusters.

I will say this about Strong: One of the biggest challenges at UT is recruiting and then retaining those out-of-state recruits away from home. I think Strong will be very good in these areas.

I also think Tennessee will provide him with the funds to build a very solid staff.

 

[WesternKyVol]

Sucks if true.

Not sure?

Don't give up on those sticky bananas Smokey!

 

[Orangeslice13]

Is that why he lost to U Conn?

Saben lost to la Ma row
Manning lost to Memphis.

What's your point?
