We all know that it is a FACT that before a potential coach makes a commitment to a multi-million dollar contract which means uprooting his family and moving them hundreds or thousands of miles, the first thing he does before signing this life-changing document, is check the school's message boards and considers all the brilliant messages he reads so that he can truly make an informed decision whether to sign or not.
No one has said any such thing. But let me ask you something. If you were about to take a big job, uprooting your family to go to a totally unfamiliar place and people told you that 25-150 public statements were made attacking your wife (who was already hesitant about moving), how would you feel?
If the choice was already 50.001 to 49.999, what would you think?
I'm not saying this was a defining moment, what I'm saying is doing so was moronic, childish, self-indulgent and could never be considered anything but ignorant.
