I feel like we need one since we've been using "We're real close" the last few days. I'll get the ball rolling with a meh tweet a few hours ago.


Clint Gannon ?@clintgannon
After all the hype of Chris Peterson to Arkansas. I maintain Mike Gundy to #Arkansas but Gundy will also speak with #Tennessee.

Derrick Jonkins ?@Djonkinssports
Is Mike Gundy leaving Ok State ? He met with Arkansas and Tennessee about there HC vacancies over the weekend. $$$$$ Makes the world turn

James Poling ?@James_Poling
RT @alexmarvez: #NFL source tells me Univ. of Arkansas met Sunday with Oklahoma State HC Mike Gundy about Razorbacks vacancy

Word on the Hill is that Greg Roman could be named HC Monday after the 49ers play the Rams. STL is only 6 hours from Fayetteville. #WPS


Just as legit

I do find it funny that we're all on here stroking our massive meatsticks last night to Chris Petersen rumors on Twitter while the UofA is actually interviewing Gundy.

We good.

I have a feeling we're gonna have another night like last night, but with more legit info and less trolling.

Anyone else think we hear something start to leak tonight that's legit?

Only thing I actually expect to hear that is legit some time soon is the time of a presser. After that is announced I'll bounce on any rumor thats around.

eta: Jeff Long keeps shite hush hushed to the extreme. Would make a damn good crime lord imo.

We know Gundy has interviewed with both Ark and UT.

So it sounds as if it's down to them and us.

But then that doesn't make any sense with the concrete sources saying Long got his guy/has had him for a few days.

Found this interesting...

I'm indifferent. “@Sparkz1:RT @wesrucker247 : Seems like a clear majority of Vols fans would prefer Charlie Strong over Mike Gundy, FWIW.”

Do you think we know that more than all the other stuff about talking to Petersen, Patterson, Miles, Franklin etc.? What is making you put more stock in the Gundy stuff? I wanna believe.

It is coming only from UT's side that Gundy interviewed with them.

According to UT Franklin turned down a 5.5 mil/year offer from us.

According to UT they had Gruden locked up.

FWIW. UT's reporters seem to be trying to make Arkansas' coaching search look as bad as possible for some reason...

I remember a report last month of them reaching out to Gundy and being shot down...

Gundy will be the name of the night tonight. Soon very soon Jeff Long roundhouse kicks the SEC with Gary Patterson fo real.

Let me state, i have no sources, its just the only thing that makes sense to me.

Just seems like there's more smoke around Gundy the last few days, from actual mediocre sources.

Only thing I've seen regarding Miles or Franklin was overwith the next day, and Petersen was nothing but a fake account twitter trolljob.

Gundy's name continues to not go away, with actual shitty sources sticking by him.

I'm not that high on Gundy, to me he is a Petrino clone with probably even worse defenses and slightly weaker offenses.

From UT's article on Gundy:

Gundy hasn't exactly had many teams that have played tremendous defense. This season, his team allowed 426 yards a game, which would have ranked behind every team in the SEC besides Tennessee. Other units under Gundy have allowed over 450 and 440 total yards a game on average.

I guess we will see. I have been floored this whole time with all the rumors and sources.

If he comes here he'll have an unlimited amount to go hire a great defensive staff.

He's a much better recruiter than Petrino, tbh.

Believe-

Contact threw Miles about Patterson
Miles agent used us contacting Miles to get both of his clients a raise.
Contact with Patterson(Was #1 and turned down.)

Gundy has had contact with Arkansas and Tenn.

Don't Believe-
Petersen. Any of it. Reason?- He has no recruiting ties to any of the area's we recruit heavily.

Franklin. Reason? While a good coach would not impress many of the people that sign Longs check.

Tubs. He is by all counts a good coach but just doesn't feel right.

Want to believe.

Mora Jr- Great coach IMO. I don't know his recruiting grounds but figure it isn't in our area.
