Wow: I'd like to see somebody deconstruct that 96-hour bullsh*t frenzy that we just went through with Gruden. A case study in the mob mentality. A couple of guys talk to boosters, or people who know boosters, get encouraging information, and somehow make the leap to "deal done," which then creates a firestorm of anticipation that in end was embarrassing. I nearly got carpal tunnel from reading so many breathless posts. People wanted it to be Gruden so bad that it became a self-fulfilling prophecy. And then when serious doubts began to surface, a few even doubled down on Gruden, telling everyone to "relax," it's definitely done! So the rumor/board "insider"channel of bad information would be interesting to plumb, now that it's all over.http://www.volnation.com/forum/images/smilies/default/loco.gif
And, of course, who doesn't want to get some truthful information about what really went down--there are too many questions to even list. But it would be hard to get the truth even if you talked to Gruden and Hart themselves as each side will have its own spin.
