I.T.S. faithful and unfaithful, our new D.C. is heading to that bastion of football greatness, Indiana. I find that a little disheartening. Yet, the old head ball coach, Kevin Wilson, has a drawer full of, metaphorically speaking, coaches‘ résumé’s. A savvy head football coach has his IPhone contacts handy for “just” this situation.
If this was the one and only time for a ball coach to grab the “bigger better deal” then I’d be just a bit concerned, but remember America’s mantra has and always will be the “bigger better deal”. I could do a stand up Seinfeld monologue on the “bigger better deal”.
Why did OU and Texas leave for the SEC? Bigger better deal.
Why did USC and UCLA move to the Big Ten? Bigger better deal.
Why did Lincoln Riley leave for USC? Bigger better deal.
Why did the colonies break away from Britain? Bigger better deal.
Why did everyone switch to flat screens? Bigger better deal.
Why have so many college football players hit the portal? A bigger better deal. So they think.
Lance Guidry, Tulane’s one month old coordinator? Leaves for Florida. Why? A bigger better deal.

Phones, houses, cars(Oklahoma it’s pickup trucks), schools, TV’s, marriage partners. Loyalty, value, commitment, integrity, honesty, trust, are still things that a lot of solid core value people cherish. When I look at résumé’s for a prospective hire I look at their work history. Are they “constantly“ moving every 1-2 years over a 10 year period, and we all know that the college coaching profession is not for the faint of heart.
There’s an up and coming smaller school defensive coach just chomping at the bit wanting to get to the next level. What do they want? A bigger better deal.

Tulane loses its defensive coordinator to an ACC program after less than a month on the job
Guidry, a Welsh, Louisiana native who coached at Marshall the past two seasons, was hired in January after Chris Hampton left for Oregon.
