The other thing, regrettably, might be something improper (either personal behavior or NCAA).
Death penalty for GT football, inbound.
Strange to do at this point in season. You can look for a job while you have one.Perhaps he just decided the uncertainty going forward warranted a job search and found a good enough landing spot. Every coach is an interim coach at this point.
The RBs really haven't looked good, but I'd still be surprised by this.Sounds more like a firing than a resignation.
We may never know the full story here but it sounds to me like something happened where there was no choice but to fire him/for him to resign. I doubt Key wanted to upset the staff in the middle of the season anymore than it already has been, and if he was resigning on his own, he wouldn't have been out on the road recruiting yesterday.The RBs really haven't looked good, but I'd still be surprised by this.
Tanks are rolling down TechwoodKey is consolidating his power. Now that he has his man as AD he is taking out the opposition.
Couldn't handle the winning.
The “we wish him well” verbiage in the GT press release does make me wonder about that. Reads like a company wide email after an employee is terminated.Sounds more like a firing than a resignation.
Not even next door to their headquarters?
Bouncing like that midseason is bizarre, man. This isn't like end of season and staff re-shullfing during bowl season type stuff. Doing that Week 5 or whatever of the season is weird.I think a lot of people here are making this more dramatic than it is.
If he has another job offer at a school with a coach that's in no danger of being fired at the end of the season, it'd be weird not to take it. If I'm worried that my job might not exist at the end of the year, I'd be looking for something new. It'd be stupid not to.
What other schools currently have openings for a RB coach?I think a lot of people here are making this more dramatic than it is.
