I think TO's timing is good for him.  The new arena, the new basketball
practice facility, the new volleyball arena at Devaney, a good chance
to be coming off the first conference football title in more than a
decade --- there has been great progress and current stability.

When Bo went to the hospital and it appeared that it could be a cardiac
issue, I wondered if there was a chance TO would step in as interim head
football coach.

He is truly a legend.

Speaking of legends, is Snyder some expert coach or what?  Wow.
