Five or so years ago we were told firmly that Coach Nick Saban, head coach of the Miami Dolphins, was not interested in being the coach of the Alabama Crimson Tide. Jus sayin.
There's some differences here.
Click here for linkMemphis television station WREG reported Gruden was weighing a Tennessee offer that would give him a piece of the Browns, who are owned by Jimmy Haslam - brother of Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam. Their father, Jim Haslam, played on Tennessee's 1951 national championship team and has donated millions of dollars to the university.
Gruden, a former NFL coach and current ESPN analyst, said Wednesday on ESPN's "Mike & Mike In The Morning" show that there is "no truth" to the report.
"I like what I'm doing," said Gruden, who was a graduate assistant with the Volunteers and whose wife Cindy is a former Tennessee cheerleader. "I'm just trying to hang on to the job I have, to be honest with you."
Browns spokesman Neal Gulkis said the report was inaccurate.
"Jimmy Haslam has no involvement in the University of Tennessee head coaching search, and the report that Jon Gruden would potentially have an ownership stake in the Browns is completely erroneous," Gulkis said.
But you're right, you never know.......
