Spurrier wanted to retire after the Miami bowl win ... Tanner talked him out of it. Tanner was caught off guard as a new AD and wasn't ready, didn't have a contingency plan in place and had made no contacts within either the search community or the actual coaching community.
This. He wanted to retire in 2014 after we got crushed by Clemson and you could see the way the program was going. The bowl win against Miami was a perfect chance for him to go but his wife and Ray talked him out of it.
He then tried to convince himself and the fans that the team was going to be better than we all knew it was, and tried to force himself to get re energized. It didn't work and after the season started he realized he should have stuck with his guns and retired the previous year.
