I REALLY hope Byrne doesn’t go! I think he’s doing a pretty decent job at UA.

But - fans think if sports as a religion. Everyone else knows it’s a business.

And we have no idea IF aggsy really wants Byrne, or how Badly they want him.
BUT If they throw down the same sort of INSANE offer they made to Jimblo Fulmer a few years ago, AND the working conditions are acceptable (that is, he can tolerate the University President and the biggest boosters). Then he WILL go.

If a senior executive at Microsoft gets an insane offer from Google; or a senior executive at Fird gets an insane offer from GM - they go, and no one questions it. Because we realize it’s a Business.

Well so is “college” athletics.
