I know but a name being put out there and enough smoke that we were making change still pissed him off. When an introvert gets pissed, it’s ugly.Quote:

No doubt there was a war going on.Quote:

Now if I'm Cohen though I absolutely want people to believe the leaks are what the problem was. 1) it takes heat off of him and onto the leakers, and 2) it helps to shut down future leaks when they might actually be detrimental
This. It's really not that hard to understandQuote:

yeah I don't believe the name leaking changed anything. It was winning that game and demanding more millions to leave that did itQuote:

Just like Rich Rod’s name not only got out but confirmed he was interviewing with USCe while still the Arizona coach. When it happens in season while you still have a coach in place, it can undermine that coach. Which I do understand. Especially since the win or loss in his last game was told to him would be the deciding factor. It pissed him off...hence the PCQuote:

So a name didn't get out publicy but we are just talking about Joe finding out about a name. The ONLY way this could have been an issue was if Moorhead thought he would only be bought out if he lost the Egg Bowl. That had to have been his understanding for this to have blown up.Quote:

A coordinator is a much much riskier proposition rather then a successful G5 coach that has southern ties.Quote:
