Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 1626721, member: 628"] I disagree. $4 million is wonderful, but again, Marrone's good on money for the rest of his life. What was a major part of the decision, in fact I believe the vast majority of the decision, was the belief that he had another gig lined up. That being HC of the NYJ. But it fell through. Certainly not the first time someone had a "sure thing" fall through. Let's say there was no $4 million dollar exit clause. But let's say the NYJ wanted to hire Marrone, and were willing to give up a 2nd round pick to the Bills to get him. You think Marrone says "no". Maybe we just disagree but I think the $4 million was a bonus, but that wasn't the driving reason why he bailed. He wanted out, the money was a well negotiated cherry on top. [/QUOTE]
