Anyone want to continue to doubt me on Gruden to Tennessee?

I told you. It’s a done deal.

UF is rumored to be negotiating MacElwain’s release this weekend and he could be out by Monday. I now hope they get Gruden just for you.

If I were to speculate, I’d say UF is targeting Scott Frost.

Based partially on this, maybe McElwain *wants* out:

As far as Gruden goes, he's been the target of coaching rumors for yeeeears. When the UND job came open after the Willingham debacle, Irish fans were convinced he would be the next HC because he went to school/played football in HS in South Bend and his father was an assistant for Dan Devine at ND.

It's that time of year in CFB where the coach rumors start flying, I usually take them with a grain of salt.

Frost to Florida is more of a done deal than Gruden to the Vols.

They would be smart too, but their elitist attitude will eventually be their downfall again. They went with a mid-major coach last time and so now they think they deserve the proven best. They’ll go after Chip Kelly and whatever else at first. Get turned down and probably settle on Charlie Strong.

 

[midswat]

I can’t be any more clear on this:

Jon Gruden will be the next football coach of the Tennessee Volunteers. Not speculating. Not hoping. Not wishful thinking. It is a done deal.

 

[Deuce]

I kind of want Gruden back in coaching. He’ll flame out like he did in Tampa once Dungey’s defense got old.

Hope so. I really like Frost.

You’ll get your wish shortly. Repeat after me: Go Vols!

So...not guessing?

So...not guessing?

I'm literally not though.

Listen, I know no one believes me and that's fine. I don't care about e-cred or whatever the fuck. Just think to yourself though... I've "known" and posted with most of you off and on for well over a decade. Of all the dumbass shit I've ever done on these forums, have I ever once tried to claim "insider" or anything of the like? Answer is no. Sure as hell wouldn't be doing so now on a Cowboys forum about a college team that maybe 1 other person on this forum even gives a fuck about.

But the truth is, this is a done deal. Gruden will be the Vols head coach in 2018. This will become more of a "story" nationally real soon. And when it is announced, you can dismiss all of my posts in this thread as a broke clock being right twice a day or whatever. I don't care.

I'm just a guy who is really excited for what lies ahead for the Vols. I love football. My two favorite teams have been virtual jokes the last twenty years or so. Even when the Cowboys turn out a miracle season, I can't ever get full homer mode anymore because I know Garrett or (then) Romo or something would happen to muck it up. As if Jerry sold his soul to win with Barry and now the team is forever cursed so long as Jerry lives. This is like the Cowboys hiring Parcells - I'm excited again.

I won't be surprised if Texas Tech beat OU today. We've upset them before.

If this comes to fruition, you will get props. I will only demand a still shot of the espn ticker with the breaking news and photoshop at the end saying (source: Midwest, ya dumbasses).

Tech will possibly have a good day with the weak secondary of OU.

I'm no good at photoshop, so I can't help with the last part.

Schmitty will take care of the Photoshop. I hear he is good.

Oh believe me I am hoping the games goes the Sooners way but Tech always plays them tough.
