I don't care how the University tries to sugarcoat his termination, they made the wrong decision, imho. Eli said himself he wanted to have a full final season (2024) and retire but they wouldn't hear it. This certainly doesn't look favorably on the University.

Eli said himself he wanted to work another 10 years.

To me it looks like the University wanted to work with him, but he refused their terms, so they didn't renew his contract. He's coming across as entitled and spoiled, in my opinion.

When was the last time you actually listened to a game on the radio? Truthfully?

Because, I was in the dove field early last year and tried to follow a game, and I, literally, couldn't follow what was happening.

There's a reason his contract wasn't renewed. It's because JoePa was dragging us down.
