I think if they offer enough money he will do it. Make him the highest paid college coach and I think he'd be in. Stoops makes like $4.3 million at Oklahoma.

It appears Jon Gruden isn't as interested in the University of Miami as the school's fans and boosters are in him.
UM athletic director Kirby Hocutt met with Gruden in Tampa early Wednesday morning. But according to several UM sources, a job offer was not made. It was purely an exploratory conversation.
According to a UM Board of Trustee member, ``Gruden was cordial, he listened to everything UM had to say but no offer was made. He said he didn't want to go further because he is keeping all his options open, including the NFL.
``He didn't say yes. He didn't say no. But in effect, it's probably a no because it will take months before the NFL jobs come open and UM can't wait that long.''
The search continues. Sources told The Miami Herald other candidates will be interviewed, some possibly as late as next week.
