Rumor has it they are going to pursue Gruden for the job. I dont blame him if he takes it! Tampa fans thank him for your one ring! He$$ will freeze over before you ever get a 2nd one!!

can't go back. The bucs still have a core of winners, we have gotten killed by injuries two years in a row and yet
have still stayed with teams all the way. Gruden has done things on offense that I have never seen, things
that Dungy couldn't of even dreamed of.
Sorry Kuhlmann, the buc nightmare isn't over yet! We will always be better than the cgirls! Philly fan is STILL
shaking.

You are so right I remember the bucs having a QB that had 41 td's by week 11!!!!!
Kevin look at the picture!! you have one and done they call it! cowboys have 5 and climbing! boys always come back on top!
shoot outs in the playoffs. Of course the bucs never had Edgerrin either!
Cowgirls are out, go find a nice place on the couch.

PS..I did pick up Julius this week!
Notre Dame will be a much better team with Gruden as coach.
Two questions though about Gruden.....
1- Can he recruit ?
2- Can he get away with his Steve Spurrier like coaching style at Notre Dame.
Oh, speaking of Spurrier and South Carolina. Does anyone have any clue
as to why he didn't go back to Florida ?
no doubt in my mind that the ACC would KILL the Pac 10 this year if they played each other.
As far as Spurrier and Florida, when Foley called Steve he said we are interested...send us your resume..Steve
reportedly said "my resume is in your trophy case" and hung up the phone. Steve didn't like to be on a list.

They sure as hell wouldn't want the ACC either!
They would only win like 3 games!
ND is a current loser, but a traditional powerhouse.
You're talking about one of the greatest college football teams ever.
They have lots of rich alumni and a solid backing.
The truth is that there is less "high quality" STUDENT ATHLETES
available who can not only read and write, but do calculus and
trig. Some of these other universities will take players who can't.
Notre Dame has tightened its standards and has suffered for it.
If they keep tightening it, they may end up playing Princeton pretty soon.
If Gruden comes in, he will ask for control of the academic standards and recruiting.
The question is will he get it.
In other words, you'd never see a Barry Switzer at Notre Dame.
BTW, do not try to educate Skippy on things - he doesn't understand.
<< <i>zsz - good points.

It would take too many lifetimes to try and I doubt if he would get it, anyway.
No ND
And from the just-because-it?s-out-there department, Gruden?s rather unequivocal response to the rumor that he is a candidate for the suddenly vacant Notre Dame head coaching job:
?I love Notre Dame. I went to high school there. My dad coached Joe Montana and Vagas Ferguson there. I?m not a candidate for that job. I?ve got the best job in football and I?ve got to work hard to keep it. I wish Notre Dame well, I?ll always be a big fan, but I guarantee I?m no candidate for that job.?
<< <i>speaking of Spurrier and South Carolina.

cause they insulted him by not just
offering him the job...
he was the ONLY good thing they Ever had there
and he was NOT going to just be "one of the candidates"
they screwed up.
That's too bad for Florida.
Steve Spurrier is a GREAT college football coach and recruiter.
The SEC just got tougher.
I would love for Chris Leak to transfer to SC.
I think that kid has great potential.
37-0...Guess they should lower the standard a little huh? lol
