发帖数: 764 | 1 JON GRUDEN AND OHIO STATE: There's one name already bouncing around the NFL
as a possible long-term Tressel replacement: Jon Gruden.
That name isn't a shock, of course. Gruden will be linked to many big-time
coaching openings, in college and the pros. But over the past few months,
and before Tressel was kicked out on his ass, Gruden told more than a few
people he was antsy and desired a return to coaching. One assistant told me
Gruden hasn't been shy about it, either. Indeed, Gruden and Ohio State would
be a perfect fit (though Urban Meyer might even be more perfect). Expect
the usual Gruden denial to the Ohio State speculation but don't believe it
for a second. Repeat: don't believe it. He'd listen and take it if offered.
And Gruden coaching at Ohio State in 2012 would be perfect timing.
As for Tressel, the NFL has always been fascinated with him. Infatuated
might be a better word. You're always interested in something you can't have
. "I always wondered why he never tried to be a head coach in the pros," one
NFL assistant told me Monday morning in light of Tressel's resignation from
Ohio State. That was the infatuation. He was one of a handful of great
college coaches who was able to turn his back on the NFL. Even historical
greats like Bobby Bowden at least flirted with the NFL.
Meyer might be the front-runner for the position but if you listen to NFL
types, with their own sources and agendas, granted, Gruden is in the mix as
well. We'll see.
Thank you to all of our soldiers stationed around the world.
See you Tuesday. | b**j
