Breaking News: Rich Rodriguez Hail to the Victor

[Matt McGuire]

Rodriguez to UM....I personally don't like the fit of the spread option at Michigan...will they go to a 3-3-5 defense?

[Walter]

Yet another whore coach leaving a good program.

[bills_red]

Like the LSU coach was "Breaking News"

[Matt McGuire]

How is Rodriguez a whore????????

Would you rather live in Ann Arbor or West Virginia?

Are you kidding me? You'd leave for that kind of money too Walter and for the UM tradition. Big Ten is a more prestigous conference than the Big Wannabe East.

[Walter]

He's been looking at other jobs for years. Anyone who leaves his kids like that is not to be trusted.

[Matt McGuire]

Well he is at UM there is no where to go but down...no NFL team would hire him unless as a position coach (which will never happen).

I'd want to get out of West Virginia too. Ugly uniforms. Redneck fans. etc...what was his salary at WVU?

[Matt McGuire]

I feel sorry for Ryan Mallett...he is a horrendous fit in that offense I hope he transfers.

[animal52]

He'll have his work cut out for him. Most of the talent on that team is graduating without a lot behind it. UM has been losing recruiting wars in this state quite a bit lately.

[Joey_Potter]

I would stay in the hills of WV. I'm a country boy.

[Matt McGuire]

I would stay in the hills of WV. I'm a country boy.

Lol you arent staying at WVU if UM shows you a multi million dollar deal I don't care how country you are.

[Joey_Potter]

Depends on if I'm content with the salary I'm getting from WV.

[Matt McGuire]

Okay...lets say WVU is paying you $850k a year then Michigan offers you a 5 year deal worth $11.3M...which one?

[Joey_Potter]

how long's my deal at WV, need to know the added up amount.

[Matt McGuire]

okay they gave you a 6 year deal for $4.4M 4 years ago so you have 2 years left on your deal for a total of 1.95M left.

[Joey_Potter]

I would be content, more than I make at a common job and if I keep my team in the top ten I will be in for a raise after this contract is up. I'm a simple gut, don't need a mansion and a bunch of cars. just to be content in my surroundings.
