Message: [QUOTE="sufan59, post: 5203304, member: 8789"] Yeah sure it’s definitely a weak move in the moment and at this time. I’ll say this though that it’s very courageous of him to deal with any public criticism now instead of continuing what was probably turning into a toxic situation, leading a program without being able to give your 100%. Had he continued, think of the following: 1. University being pressured down the road to have to buy out his contract if the program isn’t performing well. 2. Indirectly damaging career opportunities for his assistant coaches. 3. Coaching the players preaching their 100% effort when you know that you can no longer do the same. Not an ideal situation and may seem selfish in the moment. But when you take a step back, it would’ve been more selfish had he continued. Maybe the public doesn’t find out the truth had he continued, but he can rest easy knowing that he stepped aside the moment he felt he wasn’t up for the job anymore. [/QUOTE]
