Thankfully, I am a computer science major, so I can share my internal dialog with you all via youtube:

Very nice. You record yourself saying that and put it over the grandma thing? lol

Indeed I did.. just doesn't sound like me on account of trying to "blend"/match the pitch of actor Erik Stolhanske.

HC at ASU is a far better job than HC at Pitt.

...gotta agree at the moment.

but all the crap that has gone down at Penn State, ...man Graham could have cleaned up in the state, then, going to the ACC opens more recruiting doors for a winning coach who can have some exciting offenses...

ASU...(although I think there is a HUGE opportunity at Pitt)...hell, just put yourself at 19, and walk around ASU's campus...how hard could it be for a good coach to recruit? Weather ain't too shabby either...I get it, to a certain degree.

ASU will be fun to watch in a couple years...

To be clear, I don't support those grumbling about his lack of loyalty, but the way Graham left Pitt was absolutely indefensible.

To inform his players by text message instead of in person...

This is really surprising to me that he left. Yes i know it shouldn't. There is going to be alot of fight for play making recruits with all the offensive minded coaches.

Tweet from Bob Lichtenfels @ Scout

Word is Todd Graham's wife unhappy in Pittsburgh, supposedly Todd's in-laws live in Arizona, so wife had the final say in the matter.

When the wife ain't happy, nobody is happy.

Pac 12 has really done work bringing in new coaches. I think Graham may be set up best to succeed.

If you are Graham, how do you walk into a living room and sell integrity, respect, and loyalty? Just a question.

I always hate getting into debates about coaches leaving programs for greener pastures. Kelly wasn't such a shining example himself.

Truth be told there is no good way to go about this. Feelings will be hurt etc etc. Kids have to realize that this is a business. If you aren't at a top football school expect your coach to leave, even though he might say otherwise.

So then why not let kids leave and change schools without having to sit out a year?!?!?

What are you asking me for. I think it should be law that if the coach that signed you leaves, then you get a free pass to go as well.

Another source said it was not legal or NCAA violations so what could it be?
