Arky is backed by Walton money and under the current circumstances, seeing as how they think they are in an NC run window, I'm quite sure money is not going to be an object for a big name.

The issue isn't how they would get the money. They issue is making a guy who has never been a college HC darn near the highest paid coach in college football.
Gruden hasn't coached in nearly 3 and 1/2 years. He's never been a college head coach and hasn't even been a college coach since 1991. No one knows how great a recruiter he would be. Arky doesn't recruit itself like USC, Bama and Ohio State. So I maintain my point...it would be incredibly stupid to make him nearly the highest paid college coach.
ETA: I do think Gruden is a good (not great) coach...in the NFL. At the college level, he's an unproven commodity. I don't see it as a wise decision to throw Nick Saban money at him.
