Yea, I feel better about the profession too. It's nice to see someone stick by their principles and not jump away to the money. He is showing loyalty and gratitude to a community that supports him. That should be commended! With that being said, I hope Florida wins 100-0!! But hey, no hard feelings!
Trust me, I am all for character (we need some ourselves), but don't be too fooled.
Yes, he stayed with the kids he recruited, but he did talk to us, he did consider us, and at the end of the day he got paid more.
He used this job offer to get something. I know it has become protocol in coaching, but is it right to threaten your current employer to get a raise. If he was truly all in at UofL, then why didn't he just tell UT from the beginning, "I'm not interested, at all."?
