No offense to UT, but it is a lot easier to recruit kids to play in LA than it is to play in Knoxville. I doubt PC had to bust his arse to pull in top ranked classes. I have no doubt Gruden would coach up the players he has. I just have my doubts that he wants to travel the country kissing the asses of 18 year old kids. He doesn't strike me as the type to enjoy that.

Was Dungy holding up that Lombardi Trophy while Bon Jovi was rockin' out in San Diego that night?

Since when does Gruden have interest in coaching college football?

Did I miss something?

When we went to the Outback bowl in 2008, Gruden showed up to practice and talked to Spurrier and the team.

Only thing I've got.

Hey, your talking to one of the biggest Bucs fan there is in myself. The truth is go back to the year after they won the Super Bowl, specifically the Indy game. TB shite the bed so bad the 2nd half of that game and that began a monumental collapse that would go on for a few more seasons before Gruden was finally told by TB to go F himself.

But by all means let him come coach at UT. Saban, Miles, Spurrier, and maybe even Coach Boom will eat Gruden's lunch in the college game.

I really don't think you want to get into how Carroll was so good at USC do you?


Heath Shuler is a realtor, so I'm sure they could take care of finding plenty of Smoky Mountain chalets for players' families.

Can we get a TD ban linking anything to his site? The guy is such a blowhard and his schtick is very, very old.

I would love for them to get Gruden.. to see his face every year after Saban dusts his sorry azz team will be priceless... Gruden is a hack and he can't coach either... pretty cool guy tho.

I'm not entirely familiar with UTs financial situation. What's going on?

Do you have any arguement to say that he is a good coach other than posting smileys?

I do, watch this. He won the Super Bowl with a team built by Dungy, he implemented a few new fancy offensive plays and relied on the defense to bail him out and win games. The Super Bowl is a prime example.

The next season after the super bowl he and the Bucs lost their edge and pretty much became a dumpster fire again.

While you say this... In that superbowl didnt he play against te team he helped build
