Disagree.
Jim Donnan was fired. Never took another head coaching position to get a chance to quit or be fired.

Same for Ray Goff.

One coach who wasn't fired nor quit... Erk Russell. There will never be another like him on this Earth. Walked into the sunset after a 15-0 season. God bless the man.

Then he quit. I mean, he coached at Georgia for better or worse. He could have gotten another job somewhere.

Very few die on the job, either.


I guess my stance as an ex-player is this.
I would rather a coach leave if he has lost the fire than to stay and go though the motions. When a coach reaches that point the players can tell. If there is a player that does not want to be there I prefer they walk away instead of infecting everybody else with a lack of drive.
