Signed a multi year deal. I could be wrong but it doesn't say how many years.
This surprises me. I thought he would be coaching next year. Oh well. I do enjoy him in the booth.

I can't stand him in the booth, if you noticed he loves everything and everyone because he doesn't want to p!ss anybody off. He still wants a coaching job.
As far as the ESPN contract, that means nothing about his coaching intentions. Matter of fact it just gives him more leverage on his ultimate goal, landing a head coaching job.
He does provide better insight and comments than Kornheiser did last year. I'm with you Yerckson. He's a ball washer and everyone and everything is the greatest ever. I really think that's been the problem with Mon. night for the last 10 years or so. Constant ball washing sessions.
Oh yeah, I really wish they would put on a guy who was honest and inteligent

It does three things. One, ESPN was afraid some other network might hire him, especially as he gains more broadcasting experience. Two, it gives him the security he needs in case he doesn't get a coaching position he likes. And thirdly, it keeps him in the spotlight, and on the minds of owners and GMs, as well as in weekly contact with them. A no lose situation for Gruden.
