He saw the private equity thing and noped out quick. Good decision

Good coach, have to wonder what he could have done if he had pursued jobs at more prominent programs. There was certainly interest.

His 2008 team deserves to be considered the national champions.

Honestly, I think he found his happy place and now he's going to take his money and go sip margaritas on a beach. I don't fricking blame him.

Yeah, I think that's pretty much what it was. Utah was consistent as hell under him, too. Physical, fun to watch.

Damn good ball coach. Congrats to him and his family. Think I read somewhere he has a bunch of grandkids. Probably wants to be around them more

One of the 10 best coaches of the 21st century imo.

I honestly couldn't tell you what conference Utah plays in now if my life depended on it. CFB has gotten too fricked up.

Legend, one that has quietly made serious bank while being a Ute. One of the good guys.

Well, considering he's a Mormon, probably not.

And yet another good coaching spot opens for some coordinator.
