Because it, regardless, is still bama..
And because when it happened Curry acted like, to me and many others who stood by him after his major achievement was the A-A bowl in bham and 2 embarrassments to Furman, he was too good for GT. POMPOSITY PERSONIFIED. And it continued on display at uva while sipping wine with vinnie & babs dooley while Coach Bobby Ross was on the field leading GT to a national title.
Dodd also said we should get out of the SEC, so i dont give a damn what he told curry to do. I am thankful he left so we could get a much better coach in Ross.
Curry could have just taken the job like anybody else accepting that job. But he had to pontificate about all the crap he usually does and the unintended consequences were negative towards GT.
But it is done and i wish he would stfu about GT and let us overcome decades of idiotic hiring of "GT men" like him. And we could have and should have hired Spurrier instead.
