1 good hire changed Moores Fortunes!!
quote:
Yes, he tried desperately to hire Rich Rodriguez
The way I have heard it, Saban was Moore's first choice but he couldn't wait on the guy forever. Out of necessity he went with Rodriguez and fortunately (for Alabama) Rodriguez backed out.
Moore offered Rodriguez a salary which WVA could easily match or exceed...which they did. If Mal Moore had wanted Rodriguez badly enough he could have offered him $4M a year like he did Saban. Hell, he could have even offered him only $3M and RichRod would have taken it. $2M wasn't enough.
