It has nothing to do with any hardscrabble b.s.
and everything to do with the fact that he asked for the heat when he left. Quite openly. The guy had a killer job working for an AD and fanbase that didn't demand a championship with a bunch of kids who were easy to coach and unlikely to cause headaches. He could have rode the train at ND for another 3 years, maybe longer. But his eyes were bigger than his T-level, and he took what he had for granted. He knew what the demands of the LSU job would be and embraced them in every one of the 73 interviews he did on his little honeymoon tour. "Fairness" was never going to be part of the equation in Baton Rouge.
As tr said, fuck that guy.
