Everywhere...You never there.
The whole SEC arms race to try and take down Saban over the years has gotten ridiculous.

Thing is SEC is throwing big money at retreads who underachieved previously or been out the game for a bit.

That's how the ACC stepped up by hiring a1 coaches.

Fortunately Muschamp has SC ahead of schedule so far, but I was lukewarm at that hire initially.

If Florida gets Kelly, on paper, it will be the best SEC head coaching hire in years.

Tony Dungy name should be the one mention for any job and 10 million plus should be thrown in his direction

The job in Tampa and the one in indy on his resume alone says enough

That wouldn’t go much better than Lovie Smith currently

Probably a rumor, but it's a bad move on his part if it ends up being true. Give up an easy high paying TV gig to deal with the pressures of the SEC brehs.

He will burn out for sure. Too much shaking hands and kissing babies.

I understand Gruden doing it for the bread, but I don't get it from UT's perspective. Recruits were in diapers the last time Gruden was a relevant coach, and Jon has never coached at the college level before.

Yeah, makes no sense. He was a position coach for Pitt damn near 30 years ago. He's never recruited. He hasn't been a head coach in any capacity in 10 years. Completely ridiculous hire if true.

If not true.....

If you’re gonna drop 10 million, you might as well give it to Chip Kelly. Not Jon Gruden.

Not that I’m a fan of either but I’m just sayin.

If this is true, this is desperation at its highest....10 mill for a guy who has never coached at the college level and whose greatest success came at the hands of a team he didn’t put together...

And damn just listen to this muhfukka’s analysis on talent every Monday night...is this who you want building a roster for you? Because other than a name that these kids who he will be recruiting only know as a commentator, Tennessee played the fukk outta itself....if true
