is such a great coach why hasn't anyone hired him the last few years?  Is he all hype and rock star image from his MNF stint?  :dunno:

(I am preparing for a less than stellar announcement)

I think his hiring would be a big spark for UT and, based on what some of the high school recruits are saying, it would probably help recruiting. At least in the short term.

However, I have not been able to see anything he's done that leads people to believe so vehemently that he will be successful in college.

This! Droner proves his unending wisdom once again

A lot of his success would depend on him getting the right assistants. JMO

He will be able to recruit, and he has the reputation as a motivator. Those factors are very important in college. Oh and he has won a superbowl, so he can coach!

The Tampa-by-the-Bay Bucs are/were paying him very well NOT to coach.  We are withing days of that payout to end

I have always believed the TB buyout has been the preventor to his coaching until now.  Could be wrong. 

When is the day, exactly?

I don't know, as you know my view of Gruden mania, I didn't care enough to do that research.  I would assume it is a first of the month type thing so next week?

That and the fact that he has a pretty sweet job at ESPN - but a coach usually gets the itch to coach again.

I don't get too caught up in what a guy does in the NFL. He did win a SB, but he had little control over what players he got. He will have that in college. IMO that is a big deal for him

I'm thinking you are a big Analas Morissette fan... :dielaughing:

You're not losing faith are ya Lyn? Hang in there, it won't be too long now. :smile:

Jon said it himself. When Peyton led the Colts back from 21 down with 4 minutes left, the Bucs began looking for a new coach. Serious.
