He's earned the right to do what he wants, but why not just announce you're retiring at the end of the season and finish up these last 6 games. It just seems out of character for him to not finish the season.

It's also out of character for a program he is in charge of to slip back like we are currently experiencing.

Spurrier is just out of energy. He would have to make serious changes to get us back on track. For the overall good of the program, he had to retire.

So its out of character for him to want a university he obviously cares a lot about to go ahead and start finding a replacement in an off season that will have several large programs with head coaching jobs open? Or that he can give those on his staff a chance to show what they can do with more responsibility in a season thats already lost anyway, while also potentially putting a spark into his team that is clearly pretty divided right now?

Plus, Spurrier doesn't want a farewell tour. Despite him saying hilarious things in press conferences hes never been the type to seek the spotlight.
