Chucky’s sideline screams drowning out Rocky Top in Knoxville????

Bill the Chin spraying spit from sideline all the way to Memphis???

Wow, two scenarios just too weird to imagine.

Oh, by the way, the city of Pittsburg Sanitation Department just verified that Cowher takes dumps bigger than Saban. Pretty sure there’s no one in the SEC that would intimidate Bill unless he was facing Fulmer in a donut eating contest.

Vol @ 11:
Gruden started his coaching career as a grad assistant at Tennessee. Not sure if his wife’s from there, though it wouldn’t surprise me.

RE: Bill Cowher’s reaction to Saban…would be like every other coach’s reaction: reverence, awe, and bitch attitude that only Saban’s magnanimity can invoke..

/not joking too much.

I’m not sure what to think of the Gruden thing. Someone told me he loves Knoxville and his wife was a UT cheerleader or something, but i have no evidence to substantiate that. I don’t know if he would be a good fit anyway, but the “youth and intensity” thing is attractive. Another totally wild and unsubstantiated rumor I have heard is Bill Cowher, which of course would completely fucking awesome. I’d love to see Cowher’s reaction to Saban’s napoleonic rants and delusions of grandeur.

re: homecoming… that would surely be one more sack than they registered against the Gophers.

You know, Gundy earns points if he’s handing the phone to Jenni Carlson there, the columnist who inspired the original rant in the first place. We can’t tell if that’s her or not.

I think Michigan should receive Fulmer Cup points since their season is effectively over. Leave it to them to try and skirt the rules by starting their off-season mischief early. I stand by my prediction that UM will be a strong player in Fulmer Cup with DickRod at the helm.

Best wishes for the injured, not so much for the perp.

“Gruden, Tennesee, up to Saban-level money… As a Florida fan, this simply must happen.”

As a Bucs fan, it certainly must not. It won’t, anyway — Gruden’s finally got a working offense, and while there’s pressure on him to win in January, the 4-2 start seems to have dismissed “hot seat” talk in Tampa.

Also, Gruden has modified the West Coast — there’s plenty of nasty running with Graham and Dunn, and the passing gave was rather vertical last week in our drubbing of Carolina.

Gruden adapts his offense to what the defense gives him, and would be a dangerous coach that could restore the team in Knoxville to the upper flight of the SEC. That is, if he’s able to master the art of recruiting, which is probable, given his youth and intensity.
