I agree talked with my contact last night about the short list of coaches(none of those guys make sense)and it could be a smoke screen to buy time for the Gruden situation to work its self out. Guess we will wait and see, anyway they are tight lipped at UT.

I still don't understand why UT fans want Gruden. He won a Super Bowl with another coach's players, and with each following year--with more and more of the players being his draft picks--the team got worse. He was NOT a good pro coach, so why would he be a good college coach?
Who did the Bucs play in that superbowl? Who was the Raiders head coach the year before? Was that superbowl not also called "the Gruden bowl"? Those were Tony Dungy's player Gruden was playing with and Al Davis' players he was playing against. Gruden might be a decent coach (although I question that), but he has a lousy eye for talent. he proved that at Tampa. The more the Bucs were made of his player choices, the worse the team did.
I completely agree with his eye for talent—his successes were on the back of other people's talent searches and going up against the likes of Saban, Muschamp and the rest of the SEC I think will prove another disaster for Tennessee. Tennessee would be much better served going with a proven college coach that has a decent resume of recruiting—something Gruden does not have. Not to mention, Gruden is a West-Coast offense guru—a style of offense that has never worked at the college level consistently—especially in the SEC.

I couldn't agree more.

Ok here goes.... The bro-in-law works inside the UT athletics dept......
He says they dont have a clue yet........ Most of the people inside UT hope for anybody but Gruden....... The big question is "What has Gruden done?"......
My feeling is that Gruden would end up another Lane Kiffin fiasco.....

NOT GOING TO BE GRUDEN, FORGET ABOUT IT. NO DECISION WILL BE MADE UNTIL AFTER DECEMBER 4TH HOF CEREMONY IN NY. Smart move because you don't have flight records to track down interviews. You can talk to everyone you want in one hotel.
