Apparently he does. But the tone of Sterling's tweets just come off as very tongue in cheek.

 

Yeah I got that, just wasn't sure if he was making up the juice bar part. At least something is confirmed today I guess .

Surely Gruden would arrive in better shoes.

I'd think if Irsay wanted to sneak Gruden into town, he do so through Indy Executive Airport, not Indy International.

In random Gruden news: he apparently went to high school in Indiana #GrudenConfirmed.

I thought Gruden also went to middle school in Bloomington, at whatever Tri-North was called back then.

Dunno, what I read said he went to high school in South Bend. Clay High School.

All because Gruden was in an airport that no one can identify?

In November he was at that airport. As it turns out, that wasn't from today.

To be exact, that would have been right before Week 10. He worked the Bengals/Giants game on Monday night. So..could be New York. Could be anywhere else. Except Indy.

Gruden spotted in Indy today...expected to meet with Irsay.

The best analogy 

[KB]

Was Irsay on the plane that landed in Houston? Did he meet with Gruden for ten hours? Is Gruden in Indianapolis? Will he be the Colts new Head Coach? Is Pagano be the new defensive coordinator? Find out on the next episode of Dragon BALL Z!

[TDewar1987]

 

Even the late Robert Stack wants to find Irsay.

[AZColt11]

[richard pallo]

Maybe this is all a smokescreen and he's waiting on Bill O'Brien's status.  Or he might be waiting to outbid the 49er's for McDaniel and Riddick.

[Corndog]

Wow, this all got pretty ridiculous after I went to work yesterday.  Someone should photoshop Gruden in the Waldo outfit, then start a twitter account and claim to be a sports "news" reporter.

Gruden's dad was a coach at IU and then Notre Dame. Gruden was pretty lucky as a kid..was around the IU basketball team in the 70s and then his dad goes to Notre Dame when Joe Montana was (I think) a senior.

Translation: Gruden is not going to be the Colts coach.

[Shive]

I just don't get the hype with Gruden. He won a SB with Dungy's team, then it all fell apart. He hasn't coached in a decade. Being an analyst is nowhere near involved as coaching, so I don't see where that helps him other than familiarity with players and coaches. Also keep in mind how much coaching has changed since he was last a HC and how different the players are.

 

After the dumpster fire that TB became after that SB season, what makes people feel that Gruden should have power over personnel decisions?

 

I think that people remember a good coach in Oakland involved in a blockbuster trade to TB, and winning a SB that season. Over the years, his name is brought up in HC vacancies every offseason and I think the longer he has stayed in the broadcast booth, the more hype his name gets. A majority of Colts fans are desperate for a change and the hype of Gruden makes him look like the HC messiah.

While he did take Dungy's TB team to the Super Bowl, don't forget the team he played in the Super Bowl was literally the team he was the head coach of the previous year.

I always hate hearing that comment with Dungy`s team! The fact is Gruden won and Dungy didn`t. Dungy barely won a SB with the Colts!

Some people on here are ignorant to this fact, can't comprehend it, or are in denial about it...The fact he accomplished that shows his greatness as a coach...Gruden would turn Luck into a machine...

[Fisticuffs111]

Schefter reporting Irsay did go after Gruden but he's staying in TV.

Well, crap.

[PeterBowman]

At least there's finally an answer lol

[The Fish]

and someone just turned off the gas..

[adubb84]

Don't have a link but the speculation can end....he's staying in TV. Wonder how this makes pagano feel? I'd feel pretty unwelcome. Ugh....what a mess right?

[BProland85]

I'm so tired of all this speculation. I'm ready to take a year off from watching the Colts especially since it looks like nothing is changing. 

[Fisticuffs111]

This will make things weird.

If Irsay doesn't go after somebody else, we're going into next season with a coach who knows his boss tried to replace him. This is like the worst thing that could've happened to the team, not the fans, but the team IMO.

I get your point, and yes, some of us are getting desperate for a change, but we also want one that has the probability to be more than an average HC. Otherwise we might at well stick with Pagano until a truly great  alternative transpire.

 

I would personally prefer Harbaugh, but there is no denying that Gruden has the possibility to get the best out of Luck and will fuel a change of mentality. I have no idea whether we would take a risk on defense with him.

 

The chance of Gruden coming here is another question. Could happen, but probably won't for various reasons.   

 

Edit: This was posted before the Gruden deal was shot down.

[ManningGM]

And to think even after all this, Pagano still won't be fired. 

[jshipp23]

We can only hope this lights a fire in Pagano and the team rallies around him...This is a major let down though. ...Really not excited about next year,  but Ill hope for the best..
