Can Bill and Janet Jones confirm this? 'Cuz if they don't, I ain't believing it, but if a credible source like them confirms it, well . . .

Omg no of jeebus who is this unknown we're about to hire. Has this Gru-dan person done anything? I haven't even heard his name in connection to this opening. I'm so confused! Why didn't we just hire Jeff Fisher! Fire the AD!!! Blah blah blah whatever

Lol I'm so done speculating at this point. Everything I've thought was gonna happen hasn't. It wouldn't surprise me now if we end up with someone who's not even on that list that Wes first put out. Man I really do wish they'd give Roman a call and see if he can wow them. I'd love to know what kind of ideas he's got for a staff.

If we had Gruden from the start I dont see how Hart could make offers to other coaches ,but the way this search has went nothing would surprise me at this point

The quickest way to get these threads to stop is to just not comment on them. Lol says the guy(me) who has two comments on here.

I look at it this way. If Strong does what Gundy did and makes Hart look stupid, why not give in to whatever Gruden wanted in the first place, on his knees. Otherwise we are getting back down to the bottom of the barrel which is where we got CDD. IMO.
