Gruden talking to Tennessee again

The University of Tennessee is again interested in hiring former Super Bowl-winning coach Jon Gruden as its next head coach, sources said, reaching out to the current broadcaster to explore his interest in the job. Sources said school officials have discussed the matter with him, with Gruden a top target for the Volunteers. Part of securing Gruden for the position would include luring former Volunteers quarterback Tee Martin back to Tennessee to serve as a chief recruiter for Gruden, according to sources, and the deal, if reached, would be worth upwards of $10M per season for Gruden, with another $8M per season reserved for the salaries of his staff. Gruden has resisted the urge to coach in college in the past and some close to him believe he would prefer to land an NFL job if he is to return to coaching, but the Tennessee job has a particular allure to him, according to some close to Gruden, and his wife was a former cheerleader at the school.

$10M and $8M for his staff?
If you believe that, you’re insane. That’s more than Saban, Meyer, or Harbaugh to a guy who hasn’t coached in over a decade.

Sources aren’t a real thing, no one knows what’s going on as it’s been proved that no one has had a clue thus far.
I think we rehire Butch Jones at this point, do the SJW new is old type thing

Jason la canfora is pretty legit

Seems a lot more plausible with how unstable ESPN is. This next round of layoffs is targeting $80mil in salary, stands to reason that Gruden isn't too safe

I hope it does happen. Some of the poor Tennessee fans have been waiting a decade already - throw them a bone

Yes clay Travis has been theorizing this. Espn might lose mnf and gruden will need a job.

Vols are back baby!

This is going to hurt so bad. Gruden + Tee as ace recruiter is internet user David Ricky's wet dream
Posted on 11/26/17 at 9:35 am to 1999
That’s a frick load of money
Posted on 11/26/17 at 9:38 am to 1999
Again, throwing money at a guy who has never proven to be a super successful coach on any level based on name alone is the act of a desperate school.
Going to be great.

My god, hiring Matt Campbell is going to break me after getting this Gruden/Tamaurice carrot dangled right in my face

Tennessee’s like “Yeah! Let’s throw a dickload of money at a guy who hasn’t coached at the college level in 28 years and hasn’t coached at all in 9! That’ll fix everything!”
