Gruden dismisses Tennessee rumors

Coach Jon Gruden made it clear he has no interest in the head coaching job at the University of Tennessee.

"I've said it from the beginning, this is the only job I've really ever wanted,'' Gruden said. "As long as the Glazers will have me, I'll be here. I've got a lot of respect for Tennessee. I grew up down there a little bit. My wife is from there. But this is where I want to be and I can only make myself that clear.''

Gruden would not entertain questions about whether he would ever have an interest in coaching college football.

"I don't even want to start that,'' Gruden said. "I've wanted to be in the NFL my whole life and this is something I'm really excited to do. This is where I want to be and I'll leave it at that.''
