I have heard posts to the effect about Coach Rich Rodriguez, "Rich did not come to Alabama because the money didn't matter. He loves WVU more than money. He is a man of the fans and we are glad to have him." All of those WVU fans need to understand one thing: It was all about Money! He just pulled off one of the biggest stunts in the history of the NCAA against his own alma matter and they love him more today because of it. After the big sigh of relief and jubiliation of keeping their coach from the WVU fans, what really happened to make Coach Rod stay. Say a cool ~$600,000 raise. Whether or not he was truly sincere in his "flirtation rather engagement (his words)" with the University of Alabama, he got what he really wanted - MONEY. And I bet you that if Bama really wanted him and offered more money than WVU could ante up to, he would have packed his bags and move to Tuscaloosa county. NOTE: Coach Rod with his thumb up here - his agent taught him how to do this!!!
"It's all 'bout the Money boys!!!" quote from Big Dan Teague in the motion picture O Brother Where Art Thou.
