I was at a doctor's office a while back and read an article on him in some Christian magazine, sounded like a very nice man.
My parents were fans of him, always said he was fired for not beating Alabama.But he went 6-5 his last season and his record got worse every year he was there, so losing to us may have been the final straw, but there were signs of decline. Given his business success, he seems to have made the right career choice.
Like everyone else, when I heard he got the job, I thought of him as a bridge AD until a full search can be made. Given the quick turnaround from Moore's retirement and Battle's hire, I wonder if Moore was planning to step down soon at the end of the year anyway.
Yes, he has.I believe he's sold it...
