That remains to be seen. I am sure he got money and if he can't make it in the NFL he can make as much as he can in college. I am sure his value is greater than some jacksonville State player.
I don't think he really has much choice. Im sure there are guys in this class he can work with but others he can't. They will probably leave anyway. Its not like the old days when you had to stick to your commitment.
Unc has promised to increase NIL to the football program three fold. That will probably have more effect on the results then the last name of the coach.
If there were money behind it I can understand. If it was life or death I could as well but for me its just fun. When we play a team like Alabama or any of the other Big boys and 99% say we will lose and 1% pick us you will know that person is me.
I don't think we will be that good next season. We will be transitioning to a new system. The transfer portal can help speed up the process but I don't think there is enough on this roster for Rod to have instant success.
I think he will be given at least 3 years. If a place like Wvu is going to be firing coachs after two seasons then no one is going to want to come here. I do think he will be on a much shorter leash than Holgorsen and Brown was.
