Here are the facts.
He is an alumnus of WV.
His wife went there.
His wife would have never made it here.-- and you guys know it.
His family is there.
WV sweetened the pot to keep him there.
I actually have some respect for him staying and taking less money, though, I do think that he shouldn't have left us at the altar... that was wrong. He made the right decision for himself, and his family, and I say Kudo's.
If you want to be upset, we need to look in the mirror.
Alabama did not make the offer sweet enough to lure him to Tuscaloosa.
It doesn't matter if we didn't offer him enough money, or sell the program well enough. No excuses needed.
If the roles were reversed, and Bama was VW and Notre Dame was us, then we would be happy. I'm actually a bit jealous of WV for having a coach who loves their university so much. So, let's be happy for Coach Rod.
It doesn't look like it now, but Bama will be back...
