| The UT coaching search disaster ... (Posted on 12/5/12 at 4:01 pm)
...is looking eerily similar to the Alabama coaching search. I remember it starting to look like we were not going to get anybody and then we half assed announce that RR was going to be the coach and then he bailed and we ended up with Saban. This UT search is starting to look like they have their man but he needs to finish his monday night football contract and then he can be announced. I still think Gruden is going to UT and I have been saying it for months, long before Dooley was fired. Its Gruden!!

Even if this was true, Gruden wouldn't be a Nick Saban type hire.

I'm not expecting three national championships in six seasons, but this hire would get an unbelievable amount of attention.

It would be an awesome hire and it would absolutely be a NIck Saban type of hire. Dude won the fricking super bowl, can you imagine having that in your recruiting arsenal. Hey kids Nick can tell you about the Super Bowl and I can tell you about winning it. It would be a Home run.

Dude..... Shutup. We heard you this morning. You are nuts with this line of thinking. I will be here for my crow serving if by the small chance you are correct. That is very very unlikely though.

Counting the rejections from when LK left till now, and how many coaches have turned down this job? Seems incredible when you consider UT is not a lower level SEC team, has $$$, good facilities...and gets to play bama every yr because they are rivals.
