that article said nothing that wasn't already pure speculation on this and other boards for the past month. Was nothing new there.

Yes. Absolutely. Pure speculation is always the same as an actual news paper write-up. Smdh at some of you. Bash, bash, bash and when someone is actually somewhat right just blow it off however you can.

Edit: This is just to note where I stand on this. I'll believe Gruden will be the next HFCAUTK when I see it.

If we did figure something out, we most definitely would NOT go public with it.

And thats how the real world works.

Im not sure if it's wishful thinking but I believe the OP. Too much randomness to be a troll. There is a sense of narcissism in the posts. None of us care about Canadian football yet we heard step by step details about the whole ordeal just so we could get any morsel of potential info. We heard about the build up of the day before the big game, how big of a deal it is, how many people were there, etc. As in, it's important to them for some reason and they want us to think it's important too. All we care about is info on our next coach yet we had to sift through all the canadian experience. Has the OP said if they are male or
Female? I'd guess it's a relatively wealthy female unless already posted.

Bottom line:
Gruden is ready to bite. Sell the farm and let's get Gruden and his staff in Orange. Freakin sick of loosing.

You use some big words to be so gullible. Can't tell if you are too smart or too dumb for your own good

 

[rnouredd]

No. He predicted that a Chattanooga journalist would be given information. This is the first reliable outlet to report thismuch detail

You're right, I think VR has hit on some big things. VR isn't trolling imo, and if he/she is then bravo. Best troll job in VN history. Regardless, I think he/she has handled themself pretty well in the face of everyone being so negative.

 

[Tnrebel]

I'm addicted to thevolreporter! I like being trolled with the real stuff.

 

[yrock777]

VR isn't a troll

 

[VolinArizona]

I am looking at every IP address this user has ever connected from. I'm eager to see what conclusions you're drawing from it.

Go on, share.

Either Tampa or Reno?

 

[pualsline]

I thought VR said nothing was happening last night

 

[VolsFanRJ]

VR missing in action? Rucker must have hurt his feelings.

BOOM! there we have it....

According to Jimmy Hyams of WNML radio in Knoxville, Gruden, while he appreciated the opportunity, “is OUT as a candidate” for the Vols’ coaching job. Gruden reportedly informed UT officials of his decision after phone conversations — but apparently no face-to-face meetings — took place over the past week.

The part that JG and UT spoke is the only part that is really true. My source has confirmed that JG told UT that he can't make a decision right now....

Our earlier thoughts on NFL peers is surely in play. My report that the Chargers are very much in play and there staff has even contacted Gruden about possibly coaching there and being hired late December.


I can also confirm that as I reported this earlier that UT admin were having conversations with majority of UT staffers regarding a back-up plan. That plan is Butch Jones. So I strongly expect you to hear UT working on communicating with BJ about UT open coaching position.


As i've been able to give you this information remember that all those others who are now reporting these reports are now suggesting JG and UT spoke? Where did you hear this first.

I am unable to discuss what is happening right now or what the UT plan is with regards to JG. I will hopefully find out later in the day.

After hearing conversations I strongly believe UT will make another run at JG. UT as I reported knew JG had cold feet. He got the contract he wanted and still this happens? Something is happening with this issue.

 

[Volinnooga]

VR isn't a troll

You sure?

 

[tallshortvol]

How are you not banned yet?

 

[VolReporter]

Hyams can confirm that Gruden said 'No Thanks!'' ... Doubt that. Now he all of a sudden has access to the conversations? He is a week late on the conversations and negotiations too.

Why don't you get bent?

Hyams reports again:

Gruden not leaving Tampa

UT hires previous Oakland Raider coach. He thinks his name is kiffy or something similar.

You're officially my first 'ignore'. You're obnoxious and write like a bragging eighth grader.

You reported that they met last week during the Grey cup.

People need to research your info before believing. At this point you're batting 0

Sources confirmed that while details are still being negotiated, the university's offer is very lucrative and there is no firm deadline on a decision.

Gruden's decision likely will hinge on the money the school is willing to pay for his potential staff, the sources say.

"Right now, the money is there for him [Gruden], but they aren't as close as he would like for his assistants," one source said. "It could happen as soon as this weekend or go into next week, but he's pretty firm where he is and has already spoken with the guys he wants to be on the staff with him."

According to a different source, "He's told them they aren't close enough on money for the staff. He's very interested, but if they don't come up with what they need for the assistants, he's told them he's out."

 

[VolReporter]

All of this is what's being reported that is different than Hyams!

Get ready folks because JG is still in play

Why no mention of the in air transfer of Lovie Smith to Hart's plane over Oklahoma last night. Not sure if there were fueling issues with Smith's flight or not. I think you might want to go back to your sources.
