In a related breaking story, Jon Gruden is NOT taking the UT football coaching job.

Film at eleven.

much stock in that story. It wouldnt' have been nearly as bad if he'd gone to another conference.  :patriot:

Yeah, but on other boards there were people that "knew the top boosters" and "had it on good authority" that Gruden was coming.  And many just lapped that stuff up.  Once I learned that Gruden was already making more than we were likely to pay him, I knew he wasn't going anywhere, let alone to a beat down former power with high expectations and a limited recruiting base.

Some of the people spreading the rumors kept posting more BS after the bubble popped.  It was fun to read the responses to that.   :naughty:
