Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 437841, member: 628"] Yep. Not to get too philosophical, but people who have this ever-present ambition to be in a "better" place seem to be destined to always be unhappy. Coaches are the worst when it comes to this. Every coach should have a framed picture of Rich Rodriguez on his office wall. Talk about a cautionary tale. Guy could have spent the next two decades in Morgantown being revered, and living an extravagant lifestyle relative to the cost of living in the area. But he had to chase the mythos of Michigan football, while ultimately trying for the same goal (being revered). Unchecked ego is pretty destructive. Think Jim Boeheim would have preferred coaching 5 years for the Bullets before they inevitably canned him, then spending the next 20 years bouncing around either as a pro assistant or mid-tier college head coach?
