I know this isn't a popular opinion, but I hope we wouldn't pay Gruden 6 mil. What were we paying Bobby, 3.5? If Tenner wants him for that - let them have him.

I may be crazy - but I would rather try to land Gundy for less $$$. At the end of the day, this is a business.

Actually I would hope for this, Arky will keep declining, he has nothing to offer as a college HC.

I agree. I really hope we aren't dumb enough to blow $6 million on Jon Gruden. That would just be a waste of money in my opinion.

According to the latest rumor making the rounds, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram is ready to break the story that ESPN analyst Jon Gruden will be the next head coach


You would think that ESPN (who Gruden works for) or an outlet in Arkansas(who is hiring him) would break the story before one in Dallas.

Only rumor I've heard from a somewhat reliable source is that Long does have his coach and that they are waiting to find out if Arkansas will get bowl eligible or not for the announcement.

We have no reliable news outlets. To give you an idea of how great our news teams in arkansas are check out hogville, a news outlet pretty much runs that place now.

Tulsa World broke the Mike Anderson hiring and I think the Memphis Commercial-Appeal broke the Petrino rumors.

Yeah when we find out who our coach is it will probably come from something like the Tulsa world again.

Hogville tards claiming 6.1 million. They are saying 5.3 million from the U of A, and Jerry Jones is paying the rest.

Hogville is run by Bo and KNWA/KARK correct?

I swear Bo gets his show material though from here.

That would be a steep price, even though I think he's going to be a good college coach. That superbowl ring is big and shiny tho, so you never know.

That's even worse, Irwin left that place a laughing stock. Irwin thought he was the "Cossell" of Arkansas. Well he was right, he was a bitter old man just like Howard became.

KFSM fired Irwin and everybody else in the sports department, and now they have Bobby fricking Swofford.

Randy Rainwater who broke the Petrino hiring just had Biddy on his show and he is saying that people around Gruden and BOTs are saying it is a DONE,,, deal....

Now I have a real hard time putting my head around it but if we get Jon Freaking Gruden then it is the single greatest day in all of college football especially for the Arkansas Razorbacks. The SEC West would all at once chit their pants and Miles and Saban would be looking for a way out. It would be monumental.
