All men dream: but not equally.
Those who Dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds
Wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the
Dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they
May act their dream with open eyes, to make it Possible.
This I did.

I like Gruden, and he's been a Great friend to UT, but I'm not sure he's a guaranteed big winner. There are a couple of guys I think are mote proven. Now, back to plane tracking.

Those who are going in that direction need to get a grip on reality.  Jon Gruden was NEVER interested in becoming UT's coach.  It's just not going to happen.

It's a joke.  I started the thread to troll as I'm sure the rumours for a job not yet open would start soon ...

I think even the most naive fans learned their lesson lat time. But you never know

Fact!! There are actual fans that says the Gruden deal was DONE.....it was ready to be signed and delivered and Hart axed it....They really believe that on other sites.

Herb can attest to what I just posted.

Oh I know.  They are idjuts.

There was an epic troll on VN that was getting tons of hits and likes, claiming to know top alumni and have absolute knowledge it was a done deal. 

Turns out he was 100% FOS.  Which I already knew.

No way in HELL does Gruden give up a soft cushy $6-8 million job to take a FREAKING PAY CUT to coach college football, which he has never done, and have to deal with recruiting, rebuilding the mess Dooley left, and ... oh yeah, a highly irrational fan base. 

The funny thing is, as soon as it became apparent Gruden wasn't coming the same troll started some other rumor, but not surprisingly no one believed him.  Or, considering that it was VN, maybe it is surprising.
