For the better of the program

I loved those years we were winning the belt and going to NO Bowls

Whether or not it was a function of the players or the coaches I can't say

However I do want to look back fondly on that time and hope that it is the stepping stone to bigger and better things at NT.

That's why DD should resign for health reasons and move on. Its a win win for all of us

No messy firing and bad blood. Just a mutual split.

Then we can invite him back 25 years from now and reflect on the accomplishments here and not talk about his awkward firing

I am sure that is how DD's departure will happen at least publicly anyways, any top level staff will be given the opportunity to resign as part of the termination process.

Or retire.

The big problem with Dickey leaving is health insurance. He has some serious health issues but/and a contract that protects him for a few more years unless the university wants to come up with some cash and buy him out. Of course, it would be politically incorrect to fire him considering the "difficult circumstances" he faces.
