Jon Gruden Griz Gear

He isn't paid for it, I don't believe. Part of the reason he knows a lot of it is that he and Tim Hauck have had a relationship since the early 1990's. When Gruden got his first coaching job, Tim was a young DB on the team while Gruden was coaching the WRs against him. That's part of why he gave Tim such a full throated shout out there, they have a 24 year friendship. They remained familiar, and a lot of coaches from that era are pretty tight. You hear Bobby say things like "when you talk to the NFL coaches, they talk all the time about the importance of not getting behind schedule on down and distance." There are a ton of relationships through the Haucks with NFL coaches because of Tim's playing and coaching, and Bobby being a long time fixture of college sports.

I get that there is plenty of BH hate here at times, but he is pretty highly regarded as a person in coaching circles from his era. I'd imagine that when Jon Gruden wants to come to Montana and go fishing, it is the Hauck brothers taking him out.

He and Marty would obviously know each other really well, too. I wouldn't be surprised if he has followed Montana football to some degree.
