Mr Ham..I would like a romp in the hay with Elle Mcpherson or Cindy Crawford, but then again I can dream. Gruden has it made and has turned down better and bigger jobs then arky and is making around 7 mil per year I think..Yes I an convinced he will drop what he is doing to come coach your team.

I've said this before and I'll say it again.
Jon Gruden ain't leaving MNF for Arkansas, and there is nothing that can prove that he is even interested in the job.

Gruden
I've never understood the infatuation that college football fanbases have with him.
He's an offensive minded coach that took over a great defensive team that was built by Tony Dungy and Monte Kiffen. Sure, he won a Super Bowl in his first year at Tampa, but it was with a team that was great on defense. His offenses sucked at Tampa.
He is exactly what you guys despised in Nutt: Irratic and not consistent. Up one year and down the next two. Gruden was 57-55 at Tampa after inheriting a team built to win the Super Bowl. His next two seasons after winning the SB, he went 7-9 and 5-11. Then, like Nutt did at Arkansas, he won his division with a 11-5 record, and then went 4-12 the next year. He finished his career at Tampa going 9-7 his last two years.
Does this guy have the burning desire and energy to go out there and recruit after having a nice, cushy job for several years? He's been out of college football for over 20 years and never served as a head coach.
Sure, he's a guy that gets some splashy headlines when you hire him and he will probably do well with the team you have for one year. But...what about years 2-6? Sorry, I don't see him being a consistent, successful college football coach after year one.
