Rodriguez was the last really big fish left who made sense at the job.
Spurrier stayed at SoCar, now Rodriguez is staying at WVU.
Larry Coker??
They could probably hire Mike Price again if they want him :)
Don Shula. :)
Alabama Officials told Paul Finebaum on the radio that they were blind-sided by Rods about face. They said they had the verbal agreement and that they were waiting for Rod to have his team meeting, and then they were told WVU had matched the offer.
An analyst was on and said that Alabama made the same exact mistake they made in the last coaching search -- they lowballed Rodriguez and left WVU room to match. If they had offered even $2.3-2.5 Mil WVU would not have been able to match -- but the boosters poneyed up enough to match the $2 mil.
