Me neither.
But I guarantee you he at least gets a phone call from Ann Arbor.
Would be cool if he took a lot of staff and players with him."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

Nothing in any of the official statements has used the word "retire". They all says something like "stepping down".Originally posted by MartyFunkhouser View Post
Yeah, I don't believe that at all."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

Did they spend the $500mm already?Originally posted by wally View Post
Me neither. Utah can't afford the buyout in order to fire him. I think he probably wants to entertain other offers as you suggest."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

That is a good point. If he stays on in an advisory position with some sort of continued compensation, he is not really retired. Also, you make a good point about the possibility of not wanting to run afoul of "double-dipping" laws for public employees. Not sure his employment contract necessarily applies to those laws, but it could be.Originally posted by chrisrenrut View PostHe had written in his contract that when he stepped down, he would retain a advisor or consulting title in the athletic department. Retiring as a state employee has a very specific meaning. You can't retire and stay on as a state employee in another capacity.
