ODU Fans are pissed https://csnbbs.com/thread-872308.html
Think about it. You know you messed up and stepped out of the college coaching ranks. Took a humbling position on the high school level and moved your family to DFW. You are then approached by an FBS School that is mere hours from your last stop where your transgressions took place. So you take that position like "why not... I can get back in the ranks of college football and rebuild my brand now that I have squared things with my family". Then, a mere 2 months later, a team in your own new backyard offers you a position. Higher pay, don't have to move AND surely reduces the number of encounters with Va Tech fans coming up and talking to either him or his wife about the situation at hand. Not only that but historically this new program is vastly superior in football history and has recently committed mucho dinero to reestablishing a football culture in the program. You take the deal.
