Wow. Just Wow!

 

sounds like Tommy Thigpen assistant coach for UNC is getting twice his pay to go to Auburn.

 

Word starting to leak out that money may not have been the deciding factor. Somebody fill us in. And I for one am SO HAPPY to be on the other side of this stuff now HAHAHA. ....

And now another gone. That damned Butch must be hell to work for. Thats 3 so far. H I know, I know,....They are all better jobs. I've read it all on our boards not to long ago.......

 

Thigpen was money, he went from $200k a year to $400k a year doing the same thing at an SEC school.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. --- North Carolina tight ends coach Steve Hagen has decided to take a position with the Cleveland Browns, sources close to the situation confirmed Monday morning.

can't blame him for going to the NFL

 

yea, they're all promotions, they have to grow personally. UNC isn't the last stop for all these young guys like it is for Butch Davis.
