Where would this program be (Gruden)

[Czarcasm]

If we actually hired Gruden. Apparently the grumors were true.

 

[General Jack]

Would have gone better than the clown car of coaches we got instead.

 

[General Jack]

I wouldn't take Gruden over Heupel though.

 

[FLVOL_79]

Ain't gonna like. I miss Grumor season which, ironically, is right about now..

 

[peaygolf]

I've told people this was true for freaking years................I feel validated

Agree, we are in good spot now.

Gruden hired after Kiffin left would’ve been the right time in my opinion.

Agree. I’m glad we have CJH, but it would’ve been interesting to see CJG roaming the sidelines instead of Dooley.

So many can rest easier knowing the hours searching message boards, tracking flights, and stalking were not a complete wild goose chase..

Love Gruden, but I'm happy with what we have.

"He truly considered it" is not the same as all the MOU is signed, he is coming, yada yada nonsense we wasted our team with more than once.

We are here today battling for a playoff spot. Beaten bubba two of the last three. Glad we didn't get him.

Well the flight tracking, stalking, "he's got a $9M/year offer on the table" stuff was still a wild goose chase. Super entertaining, but a wild goose chase.

There were no advanced-level discussions. He did talk with Dave Hart, apparently (Gruden mentions Tirico, who left after 2015, so this could have been during search to replace Dooley). It sounds like he toyed with the idea of it but ultimately didn't want to leave MNF.

Regardless, the Grumors weren't concocted 100% out of thin air. Which is something.

Gruden was on the grassy knoll.

There were very few that really believed it. There were some people in the know that were right about it, just boiled down to him not taking the job. There were a lot of people, however that trashed the entire idea completely and never believed we were talking to him, or whether he was interested in the job. It was definitely closer to happening than most thought.

 

[DaddyChad]

You can proceed to kiss every single square inch of my entire bloodline's ***.

Gruden sucks. Period. Sorry not sorry that your cranial-rectal inversion and hero worship precludes you from having an opinion that isn't completely idiotic, moronic, and delusional. 117-112, and he's some kind of genius?? Miss me with that each and every single time.

Next time just say "I don't know a single, solitary thing about football" and leave it at that.

Oh and respectfully, GFY.

How does one respectfully GF themselves? Top hat, lube and a monocle??

it's was a done deal..........

A Grumor thread wouldn't be complete without name calling, put downs, and keyboard warriors showing up for battle.......this one didn't disappoint. (Usually makes it past the first few pages though, so that's an upgrade).

 

[OrangeBeachVol]

Surely he would have been better that Dooley and probably Jones. Don't think he would have stayed long enough by the time Hype came along.
